Liked: Good simple site. Toilets very basic mobile toilets but we’re clean on arrival
Disliked: Unfortunately one tent with four adults spent all night singing, talking loudly, and playing heavy beat disco music. When I say all night they seamed to pause about 6am for a wee while. The penalty of a non managed site. It was a shame as other than that it was fine. We will not be back ~ sorry

Liked: This campsite is fab. It’s a simple campsite with portaloos but that’s all you need! The field is a big open space with trees around most of it so perfect when it’s windy. We have a dog that gets excited and wants to play when he sees other dogs and people close to us so always try to find a part where we can keep him tied up out the way and this place is perfect for it. Definitely recommend this campsite to anyone :)
Disliked: The one thing that was frustrating is a farmer ( I’m assuming the one from the field over ) comes every morning walking with his 3 dogs & doesn’t have them on a lead so they came up running into our tent, barking at our dog while he just calls their name. The 1st time he came up to us his dogs started barking in our dogs face, he barked back once with him being cornered by the 3 of them and then when he finally appeared after his dogs he said we shouldn’t have our dog there because sheep go into the field ( even though he was always tied up on a short lead ) then the second morning we quickly got him in the car out the way and the dogs were going through our bin bag and tent and things so if you’re at that one side with the field over be aware of that in the mornings, especially if your dog isn’t friendly as could end up a lot worse.
