An oasis of peace!
Powered cement/asphalt campsite
Liked Everything was perfect. Immaculate amenities on site and stunning views. Some sites have that ‘feeling good’ atmosphere, and Newnes certainly hit the spot! Our 2 dogs loved the walks round the site and the owners even mow round the outside of the sheep field to give a further walk. Site owners were so welcoming and kind. Only stayed 2 nights but could have easily stayed much longer.
