Liked Big open space so everyone was well separated. Fairly quiet, a little traffic noise caused by a diversion on the A19 and someone playing some music but they stopped and the traffic quietened down. Facilities were adequate, and clean. The lady at reception was helpful and explained everything quite well. The standing stone circle was interesting and after the climb up to it you had a wonderful view of the countryside. Quite close to the A1 for a stop during a trip to or from the Highlands.

Disliked The site slopes and I found it difficult to find a spot suitable for a tent. Fine for motorhomes and campervans with ramps.

From the manager: Sorry you didn't like the site , and left before pitching up for the night , which you advised us was due to the amount of children playing about . We love that our wide open pitches give plenty of space for families to be together , play ball games etc and enjoy the outdoors .

Liked Very spacious field, hot water and drinking water available and space to wash your own pots.

Disliked We wished there could have been a children's park or play area for anything for them to do, seems camp fire are reserved for favourites/regulars and also a drone kept hovering over us most of the day/night which I found very strange and made me feel uneasy as we had children.

From the manager: Thanks for leaving the review. We are a back to basics campsite and as such don't offer any additional facilities for children to play in other than the big open space of the campsite. Apologies you weren't able to get a fire pit it was a busy weekend and our fire pits are a first come first served for people buying logs or those who have pre-booked logs and fire pits. We would have really valued you letting us know about a drone being intrusive as this would have enabled us to discuss this with the drone owners.

Liked Good campsite very friendly

From the manager: Thank you ever so much that's really kind of you to say so. See you again!

Liked Lovely relaxed campsite, Derek (the owner) very easygoing, allowed our group to pick our own pitches together, with enough space between groups/pitches we were even able to do a 10 person yoga session on the field! Ronni in the hippy shop was also fabulous, stocking anything, everything and more you may have forgotten to bring yourself. Although our group was having a big catch up so didn’t join in this time, the fantastic addition of a 7pm quiz around the communal fire pit (£1 to enter, proceeds go to Yorkshire Air Ambulance) definitely puts this campsite above and beyond. They often have events on too so keep an eye on their Facebook page, it was lovely walking around the Combat Camp and looking into all the hippy and art stalls. The toilets were clean, as was the shower, with plenty of hot water to wash yourself, hands and pots at the outdoor sink. Fire pits are allowed, wood is sold on site for £5 a bag so you don’t even have to lug your own about! Overall, a brilliant campsite with a relaxed atmosphere which we will definitely be returning to (and will join in the quiz this time).

Disliked If camping on the side field, it’s a couple of hundred metres uphill walk to the toilet/shower/sink block, though there is a portaloo, I’ll take this into consideration when pitching next time we come as someone currently with mobility issues. Take a torch to the toilet as it is very dark and the light did not work.

From the manager: Thanks you for leaving such a lovely review, we do allow people to pick their own pitches so people can choose how near or far they would like to be from the facilities. Apologies about the light not working on your stay, there was a problem with the sensor which we only discovered after the weekend. The toilets do have a sensor triggered light, please let us know if there is anything that isn't right during your stay so we can attend to it at the time.

Liked Lovely people at sentry circle. Constant Clean amenities. The hippie shop was so cute and quirky. Bought a necklace and sage ☮️ ✌️ lovely camping site

Disliked The slant on the field 😞

Liked Easy going, friendly campsite. Clean and well provided ammenities. A great option of renting wood burners. We camped on the weekend of the Quietly Inspired festival. Not a problem as there was a separate field for us non festival goers. A walk up the hill to the stone circle at sunset is recommended.

Disliked None.
