Non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch
Liked: The view from the campsite was fantastic. A very peaceful place with plenty of space to pitch and give everyone room. The George Inn was friendly and food was good.
Disliked: Uneven ground. A large group were making noise and drinking until the early hours, leaving litter in the communal barn area.
The loud chugging sound of a generator used by a permanent
resident (running from 10pm-midnight) ruined the peaceful feel.
