Non-electric grass touring pitch
Liked: The open field and location were perfect. Price was £10 per night - perfect for us as we had family staying in a caravan in the area so just needed somewhere to sleep. Quiet and everyone well spaced out. It is a basic site with two toilets and sinks. We arrived at night and I was a bit freaked out because it was dark and I couldn’t see what 8 legged mates might be lurking. There weren’t any. Always stocked with loo roll and the addition of a mirror was very welcome. Didn’t meet the owners to thank them as we were arriving late and leaving early. Looking forward to returning.
Disliked: Second night we moved spots and only in the morning noticed the litter left by previous campers. Not owners fault, shame people don’t clear up after themselves.
