Non-electric forest floor tent pitch (wild)
Liked: A very natural but well managed woodland site. Toilets and ahowers are cleaned regularly never a mess. A comunial covered area with basic amenaties (microwave sinks benches and charging points)
Pitches vary in size according to your tent with Water points dotted through the woods.
Staff are friendly and very helpful 🙂. Allowed us to extend our stay whilst there to accommodate bad weather.
No cars allowed to the pitches making it perfect for the kids to roam safely while we were on site.
We really enjoyed our stay here with a prospect of returning very soon for a relaxing break.

Electric optional grass and gravel touring pitch
Liked: It was lovely to speak to the hosts, a hard-working husband and wife team. Dear campers, please remember to unplug your electric-hookup lead before leaving! Many thoughtless visitors had failed to remember, causing the hosts repeated work to repair the hookup points.
