Liked: A very clean, tidy and quiet site with great amenities, spacious pitches, in a beautiful natural setting with lots of wildlife and views over open countryside. The host/owner is very friendly and helpful - she even came to my rescue when I had drained my car battery! I would highly recommend this site and I will be visiting it again.
