Gorgeous site, don't tell too many people!
Non-electric grass pitch
Liked: The lovely location, the meadow in the middle of the field, that it's all flat and super quiet except for birdsong. Lovely hosts and facilities and a great location.
Disliked: Would have liked a second shower and more consistent shower pressure, but the hosts tried to help campers avoid busy times with advice

From the manager: Thanks very much for camping and taking the time to write a review.
Our facilities are limited and this is a back to basic site. Unfortunately it is unviable to add extra showers or loos.
We try to make the best of what we have.. and we sell solar showers in the store and there’s plenty of hot water & buckets available too!
As one guest kindly wrote “this place is about wildflowers not power showers”
Excellent site
Non-electric grass pitch
Liked: This is a really carefully considered small site with few pitches, no road noise and really lovely hosts. Every detail has been thought about and the whole experience is charming and excellent value for money. They also have the two fattest, happiest chickens I've ever seen!
Disliked: They could do with a second shower and more shower pressure, but they acknowledge those challenges and give times that's it's better

From the manager: Thanks very much for your comments. It was lovely to meet you!

Beautiful campsite, we will definitely be back.
Sunny electric grass pitch
Liked: Beautiful campsite with lovely owners. Great area for children to play and little shop for any forgotten essentials or treats.
Facilities were clean with thoughtful extras like fresh flowers and eco friendly items.
Disliked: Shower was quite difficult to use with a toddler, temperature was intermittent and could become very hot. However paying £1 was no bother and instructions were very clear.

Lovely back to basics site.
Non-electric grass pitch
Liked: Loved this site - simple back to basics but beautifully natural - wild flower meadow in middle of field with just 8 pitches around. Attention to detail with small store and honesty box for any items purchased. Immaculately clean loo and shower in old stable building. Would recommend it and will go again.
