来自经理: Hope you had time to chill out also :)

喜欢: A great campsite- very family friendly with small play area, table tennis table and some animals. It's linked to a crazy golf, gym and escape room.
The facilities are good: hot showers with plenty of space, plenty of toilets, washing up area, water taps, fire pits to hire....a really great place.

喜欢: Loved this site! Super friendly staff, facilities were really good and always working. Lots of things for kids to do. Totally worth staying here, and will definately come back again.

不喜欢: Not a dislike as such, more just something to note. The entrance is a bit steep so if you have a setup with low ground clearance it might catch, but otherwise nothing else

来自经理: Thanks for the review and so glad you had a good stay.
You are right about the entrance being steep, usually only catches very low back ends or caravans with very long back ends. We do have another entrance that can be used by prior arrangement.

喜欢: Peace & Quiet, access to Mini golf, local area

喜欢: Lovely site with a homely feel. Pitches well sized and good facilities on the pitch and throughout the site.
Lots of activities available and even animals on site (not free roam as far as I could tell).

不喜欢: Nothing

来自经理: Thanks and glad you enjoyed our site.
When bird flu is not restricting them we do like to let our half a dozen hens free range and they are very happy to interact especially with the children. BUT we are equally as happy to pop them away if anyone is not keen on birds.

喜欢: I loved this place! So many other sites are either very rustic with minimal amenities or very busy/loud/expensive, but this strikes the right balance for me. Church View has all the amenities I could want (hot water, washing up station, plenty of toilets and showers, picnic table at each site, charging points, ice pack freezing, drinking water, and a little play area for kids). Yet, in spite of having all this, the site feels fairly small and it was very quiet at night. The pitch was flat, with soft grass, and somehow the whole site seemed pretty dry in spite of pouring rain shortly before our arrival (must have excellent drainage!). The site was clean and very well thought out. I wonder if it was purposeful to put the play area near to, and within sight of, the washing up station? Brilliant! This really made my life easier, as I was camping alone with a three year old, and without the play area I probably would have needed to stop and chase him down every minute or so while trying to wash dishes! Oh, and the owners were really friendly too.

I think this is probably the ideal spot for a first camping trip with children (in my case, I’ve camped with my son, but this was the first time I camped alone with him). My son enjoyed seeing the hens and guinea pigs. I took him in the buggy for the 10-15 min walk into Barrow, which was a pleasant walk along a quiet road with pavements. There he played at the good-sized playground behind the village hall and then we had lunch at a pub. The next day we drove 15 min to the Ickworth National Trust site. We had enough to do for our 48ish hour trip, and it was a lovely stay!

不喜欢: Not really a dislike, but I’d suggest putting a sign at the gym entrance saying it’s also the entrance to the indoor toilets. I was looking to see what indoor space was available to take a break from the cold (the indoor space has a little lobby with a small sofa and vending machine). I wandered around looking for quite a while, because I didn’t think that door could possibly be the right place to enter, since it’s clearly marked as the gym entrance and has a gym reception desk just inside. Also the advert probably should be updated to let guests know that gym use is for an additional cost (not included).

Finally, I’d suggest changes to the lighting. Turning off the lights a bit earlier would be nice - I was worried they’d keep my three year old awake until they were turned off (at 10:15) but bedtime actually went fine. I do wish I’d been able to show him a better view of the stars, though, which were glorious after the lights were off. Dimmer lights that more closely follow the road to the loos would probably be more helpful (maybe getting a few of those solar powered ones with timers on posts?) But maybe it’s just me - I love dark and stargazing while camping!

喜欢: Lovely little campsite, not too big, cafe on site, plenty to do around too but also nice and peaceful. These small sites are much friendlier than large ones and always better value

喜欢: Plenty to do on site, the café was a nice touch and the burgers were excellent. Nice to see some animal life on site, not everyones cup of tea but children love it, as they did the play area.

不喜欢: The washing facilities seemed a bit haphazard. Certainly clean enough but only 1 dedicated shower each for M & F with others opening straight out on to common areas. Only one handwashing facility for 3 toilets and a urinal in the mens area which was suboptimal and no means of drying hands outside the one shower room.

来自经理: You must have missed our separate indoor shower facilities which have two men's and two ladies showers.
The numbers of showers, toilets and wash hand basins are such that queues don't usually develop. In the ladies there are two sinks for 4 toilets.
Our facilities are basic and we do not advertise otherwise
