Liked: Lovely rural location, that was perfect for a stop over on the way back from Scotland as not far from the main road either. Quiet, only 2 other vans there.

Liked: It's like the good old wild camping and this is why we liked it. We stayed 6 nights (the weather was beautiful), enjoyed beautiful sunsets, total darkness at night, tranquility.

Liked: Peace and quiet and stunning views. Drinking water, chemical point and bin on site. Just as described. Loads of room. Noise from tank range up the road day and night but not late....didn't bother us though. Only three vans including ours.

Liked: Very remote. Arrived late as we were using this as a stop off on route to Scotland. Not far from the main road but a world away.
Disliked: There is nothing to dislike, as there is nothing there. There's a tap we found but that's the extent of the services. You need to be self sufficient. It was dry so access was not an issue.

Liked: Peaceful site. Literally just a water tap and a elsan point. Pitch where you want so you basically end up with loads of space.
Had full 5g signal on 'three'. I used solar, but a neighbour had a genny, it wasn't loud by any means, wish I'd took mine. I would certainly go back
Disliked: Nothing
