A charge of £0.50 ($0.86) applies for the use of the shower.- There are no garbage cans onsite: all garbage will need to be taken home with you.
- The roads to the farm are made up of narrow country lanes, so can be tricky to access for those with bigger vehicles. As a river is on site, children must be supervised at all times. Cold water is free but there is a 20p charge for hot water in the taps.

Liked: It has lovely views and there was WiFi to connect to, manger was very helpful and lovely.
Disliked: The ground is very very hard pegs wouldn’t go in we had to leave after first night because it was far to windy and with the pegs not going we couldn’t risk it with 40mph gusts, there is no signal at all
