Non-electric grass and earth tent pitch
Liked: The setting in the midst of gorgeous countryside. An excellent situation.
Walks available direct from campsite.
Dog friendly.
Simplicity on a small site.
Disliked: No visit from site owner.
After rain the stream running by the site turned into a very loud torrent, so sleeping was disturbed.
After rain the grass track to the pitches became muddy, rutted and too eventually too slippery for car to traverse.
Rubbish and recycling could be better organised

Non-electric grass and earth tent pitch
Liked: Laid back, relaxed site. Help yourselves to a pitch, stunning scenery, considerate guests and beautiful stream to camp alongside. No washing up room or showers (as advertised) but price reflects this. Toilet stopped flushing so I text owner and he came straight away to fix it. Recommend!
Disliked: Not a massive grass area for kids to play games, but mine were happy to explore the stream and walking paths instead.

Liked: Everything. From the mini waterfall right on the site, to the beautiful views and animals. A perfect, quiet, secluded, cheap little last minute getaway for my husband, myself and our daughter! We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves and the peace and quiet was absolutely blissful. Exactly what we was looking for.
To get away from the hussle and bustle of city life.
I could have stayed for life!
Disliked: Nothing!
