Ellis' Hill Farm Campsite

Líbí se: They had accommodated everyone despite the poor weather making sure that everyone was able to enjoy their stay. Facilities were clean and as described. Overall cannot go wrong for the money

Líbí se: We recently visited this campsite for our first-ever camping trip—crazy, right? Despite the poor weather, we had an amazing experience! The owners were incredibly kind and welcoming. They not only guided us to the best spot to pitch our tent but also, seeing how cold we were, generously gave us some firewood. Their hospitality made all the difference. We’ll definitely be coming back!

Líbí se: Very friendly and helpful staff. Real people. Good guidance. The purpose of this camp was "winter camping". The site delievered by having an area that was not drenched and muddy. Toilet facilities were clean, had water, had toilet paper and hand washing soap. There are no shower facilities and that is clearly stated - so no miscommunication there. Camped under some beech trees. Saw a deer. It was a good get-away in a safe space. Great grass meadow surrounded by beautiful trees, and we camped angled at the sunrise.
No wifi offered, and maybe more geared towards adults as there are several barbed wire fences.

Nelíbí se: Nothing really. No mis-representation of the site.

Od správce: Thank you for your helpful and generous review. Feedback is so important to us and helps prospective guests to understand the nature of our site.

It’s correct that we do have some areas in our woodland, bounded by barbed wire. This was put there by a neighbour (unfortunately). The main camping field is suitable for families, with plenty of space for children to play safely.

Camping in the winter is certainly more challenging here as we are up against the weather which can make the ground waterlogged quite quickly. We do try to accommodate guests despite the challenges and we know that people generally understand that winter camping is not for everyone.

We hope to see you again soon.

Best wishes.

Líbí se: Site is easily accessible by bus--take the bus route 3 from Reading and take a 20min walk. Very friendly for backpackers :)!!

The host is very friendly and helpful, had a great time at the site. Pitch is large but you have to spend some time finding yourself a flat and dry space if you want to be under the trees. There are fire bowls, logs and kindlings available on site, and a cozy little tea room at the reception. Toilet is very clean. A lot of wildlife including robins, bluetits, owls and deers. Will definitely visit again!

Od správce: Thank you so much for your lovely review. We’re glad you enjoyed your stay with us.

Thanks also for the great photos. They give a really nice flavour of the kind if site we have here.

We look forward to welcoming you back again soon.

Líbí se: A lovely little site. Very basic but it is advertised as such, so no surprises there. There are no showers, 1 female toilet and a separate block for men, which is not luxurious but sufficient. There is only a small hard standing area for vans (no awnings or electric hookup) but it looked like there was plenty of space for tents. Price seems high for what you get if you are used to campsites elsewhere in the country but this is actually cheaper than other campsites in the local area, so probably about right for near London. Super friendly owners and a nice on-site cafe for breakfast. Good location and easy to find (if you follow the directions provided!). Great for a no frills overnight stopover.

It’s true that the facilities are basic. We are a bit on the wild side!

Facilities were all clean and there’s plenty of space to pitch, great farm shop/cafe is the icing on the cake.
