Liked: Friendly owner, given information leaflet on local attractions. Well kept site. Drinking water, grey waste drainage on our pitch. Individual gravel area to park alongside our own grassy area. Picnic benches in shady area. Beautiful trees and birdsong! Very clean facilities, big showers with benches far enough away to keep belongings dry.
Disliked: Poor vision on exit of site onto road with sometimes fast moving traffic.(obviously something not under the owners’ control!)

From the manager: Thank you very much for your positive review, its great to hear that you enjoyed our campsite. Sorry about the road traffic, as you say it's something we cannot control, but we have cut the verges back to increase visibility to help improve this.
A very enjoyable stay.

Liked: We had a fantastic weekend at Bluebell Meadows Campsite. It was very peaceful and the staff was very helpful. The facilities were very clean and the campsite itself was well-kept. There are nice shaded areas for the kids to sit and the campsite is close to a lot of sites to visit. We will certainly visit again.
