Liked: Great peaceful location, toilet and showers were spotless. WiFi was very good. Couldn’t fault my stay. Hosts Saffron and Glen use a contactless system where you book in when you arrive by replying to their warm welcoming text message, which makes everything clear and then let them know when you are leaving, very easy and if there were any issues I could contact them directly. Will plan to stay again

Liked: We loved the quiet, rural very pretty location, we were there early and got a nice pitch on the bottom right which meant we had plenty of our own space. The glamping pods looked really good too. Everything tastefully done. We walked over the fields to the village and ate at the dog friendly pub where we met our daughter who's studying in Leicester which is a stones throw away but you'd never imagine it as so rural! She dropped us back and what a pretty scene to come back to, the whole place was prettily lit with fairylights, again tasteful and gave the place a glow, we loved it. Plus owners very responsive to any messages and were more than happy for our daughter to park up for a bit and have a cuppa. Thank you, great stay.

Liked: The wifi actually worked
The setting was nice but thats its.
Disliked: The site was very small and parts showing it still being built. We booked a week or so in advance and only after we arrived and setup that we where told due to overnight freezing temps that the water would be turned off to the toilets, showers and taps.

From the manager: Hi there, thank you for your feedback and I’m so glad you liked the setting of our site 😊 I’m sorry to hear that you were disappointed about us having to turn the water off overnight. We were monitoring the weather forecast closely and unfortunately due to the unforeseen freezing conditions we had to turn off the water off between 11pm and 7am to avoid any issues with burst pipes etc. Thank you again for staying. We take all feedback on board.
Great place to stay with great facilities.

Liked: Lovely peaceful location with the best shower! The washrooms were very quirky. Staff were keeping us informed about different things during our stay, which was great. The site is a short walk to Houghton on the Hill, where we had a lovely pub lunch.

Liked: An absolutely delightful campsite, as a solo traveller I felt very safe and secure. The converted shepherds hut shower/toilet is fantastic - super clean and that has to be one of the best campsite showers I've ever used! It's literally hotel quality in terms of pressure/temperature.
It's basic, as in there isn't a shop, but that was made clear on the website. And the wifi connection is really good.
