What customers say

Lovely, well-kept site. Owners are great. Pitches are decent, often with hook-ups and tables. Toilets/showers are spotless and improved. Kids love the play area and animals. Some found portable loos a bit limited, and grey water disposal can be tricky. Great place, people want to come back.

Liked The greeting on arrival, Beth was very polite and just generally happy to see us which was really lovely.
We had booked to go with friends and asked on the pitch up form to be pitched next to each other or as close as, we were literally next door it was great that they could accommodate that.
The pitch was really well maintained, had a perfect location for water and electric all on the pitch.
Dogs were allowed which was a big plus for us as we have a sausage dog and our friends have a lab.
The toilets, showers and wash area were really clean and every night you'd see Beth or her partner (im assuming sorry) go down to them and just make sure they were clean and looked after. They provided dish soap hand soap and sponges which was a huge plus.
The entire place was gated which made me feel really safe as well.
There was a kids park and tbh it looked in amazing condition.

The only thing is the showers could have done with being a little bigger but other than that it was a perfect stay and absolutely would book again.

Liked Quiet setting, lovely hosts. Facilities basic but spotlessly clean. Nice touches with new pan scrubbers at the sinks. Nice to see the animals close by.

Disliked I would have liked the shower cubicles to be a little bit bigger. It was hard to get re-dressed without getting clothes wet. Not a problem when the weather is nice, which it was for us, but would gave been tricky to keep things clean and dry if it was poor weather.

Liked The small and chilled vibe of the site.
It was absolutely immaculate from the site it’s self to the toilets/showers.
The kids loved the little park, the shop and obviously the animals especially Kieth the donkey.
The owners are really welcoming too.

Liked Our second time here this year for a weekend break. Still in fantastic condition. Site owners have actioned previous feedback from others about lighting in toilets. It’s great now. Rain was biblical while we were here, but we still had a great time on a very peaceful, beautifully kept site. We will definitely be back again. P.S. Keith the donkey was in fine voice this weekend. Really makes us laugh !

Disliked The only thing we think needs sorting is the grey waste disposal. Trying to lift up a full wastemaster is not an easy task.

Liked An enchanting site, perfectly laid out and loved the animal friends next door.
Had a great welcome and shown around the facilities which where great - liked that they were all individual units.

Really liked that it was surrounded with hedges which gave some good wind protection.

Good strong fast WiFi as well

Liked Came here to test out our tent box, Elizabeth couldn’t have been more welcoming. Site is absolutely immaculate and gorgeous attention to detail. From the well kept pitches to the beautiful animals. Little shop on site, park for the kids and a lovely wash area and toilets. Would definitely stay here again.

Disliked Absolutely nothing.

Liked Pretty much everything! Really helpful and friendly hosts, site very clean with a one way in and out system.plots are really good size with picnic benches on each one. We were right next to the animals in the field which was lovely to wake up to on a morning, visits from Keith the donkey while drinking your morning cuppa! Washing up facilities are great and have everything you need. Toilet and shower facilities very clean. We will definately return next year.

Disliked My only small issue and it isn’t one that would stop me returning is that as much as the toilets are clean there could be a few more. A few times we had to wait outside when they are in use as there is only 2 and the water in the sink was cold. if staying for more than a couple of nights you maybe would want more to avoid waiting outside the loos!

Great site run by lovely people, well thought out, would stay again.

Liked Lovely small site. A really nice welcome on arrival from the owner who then showed us to our pitch. Good pitch—level and spacious with a picnic bench and water tap on the pitch. The site was well maintained and toilets/ facilities really clean. Really felt like they'd thought everything through, right down to having sponges and washing up liquid provided at the washing up sinks.

Disliked Nothing to dislike.
