What customers say
Flowerdew Farm gets a thumbs up for its friendly, laid-back vibe and eco-friendly approach. Clean amenities, a welcoming host, and the on-site animals (especially alpacas and goats!) are big hits. Great rural spot near pubs and walks. Downsides? Showers/toilets can be tight when busy, and a bit of farm/road noise. Pitches can be a tad cosy.

Unpowered grass tent site
Liked Competitively priced, cute alpacas and goats, friendly owner, fridge and freezer access plus phone charging was a real bonus plus sofas and a proper table to eat at were much appreciated.
Disliked Some noise from the road, other pitches quite close so noise was an issue at times, washing up area needs a new tap, wi-fi was very flakey

Lovely little campsite - great vibes.…
Unpowered grass campervan site
Liked Lovely little campsite - great vibes. Hostess was super nice and friendly. Nice area for washing up. Showers and toilets were clean. Fun to watch the little goats. We don't have kids, but there were quite a few families with young kids and everyone seemed to be having a good time. Definitely a well looked after site.
