Non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch
Liked: The toilet facilities were clean, well lit and dry.
The campsite was relatively smooth and it was easy to get the pegs in the ground.
The campsite owners were right next to the site and were really friendly. We bought logs and fire lighters/newspaper from them and they later on, whilst we were out, brought us kindling to use too.

Liked: Location was lovely and close to town and not far from puzzlewood too. Back to basics camping. Nice big field, horse and sheep neighbours. Friendly host who greeted us upon arrival. Secure toilet cubicles. Washing up area and drinking water tap all in the same location on the site so easy to get everything done.
Disliked: Shower space was tight but still manageable.
