Unpowered grass tent, campervan or trailer tent site
Liked: I loved the open plan feel of this site l. Facilities were discretely hidden and 3 choices of fields to choose from.
Disliked: Strange choice of lication of the pizza van being next to the toilet block and the shower block cubicles opened straight in front of it (very close quarters) not a negative though.

Unpowered grass tent, campervan or trailer tent site
Liked: As advertised. Loos were clean. Didn't use the showers, but also clean. Pizza van was open on site on the Friday we stayed. During peak season would need to arrive earlier to secure a perimeter pitch, but plenty of room in the middle if not. Hosts welcoming, pop round all early evening, but not intrusive. Good comms inadvance, advising on the ground conditions. Great location for walks.
Disliked: Nothing!

Unpowered grass tent, campervan or trailer tent site
Liked: The site has a beautiful view of The Roaches. It was nice and easy to find, and there are several nice pubs nearby. It's also ideally located for visiting Tittesworth Water. The owners are friendly and seemed to have a laissez-faire attitude towards campers which was refreshing. There's also a pizza van on-site offering fresh sourdough pizzas.
Disliked: It would be nice to have a dedicated shower and toilet block, as the prefab facilities are a bit basic.
