Electric hardstanding motorhome pitch
Liked: Ease of access, good motorway link. It was an attractive venue being a small holding. Excellent position to walk up both the Ridgeway, the 14 locks and beyond. The aspect was very attractive. Lovely to have a fire pit and seating. It was generous that the wood was free but unfortunately it was wet as not in a store. The Astro turf pitch ensures dry underfoot which is particularly welcome with two dogs. Looking forward to visiting again

Electric hardstanding touring caravan pitch
Liked: Surprisingly peaceful given the proximity to the M4. The location was perfect for us and we were located in the top field. No passers by which was a bonus for our dogs! We arrived later than planned due to work but that wasn't a problem. Sam came out to meet us and direct us to where we could pitch and helped us with getting the caravan in place. Very friendly and helpful whenever we saw him over the course of the weekend. The stables definitely suited our purpose and we would look to book again for next year. Good electric, good water supply and solid standing for the caravan.
Disliked: Nothing to dislike. Had everything we needed.

Liked: very friendly owners
Disliked: the camp site was the parking area which backed onto the motorway above and there was road noise most of the night.
I was not warned that you needed 20p pieces to use the shower so couldnt shower.
