Liked: Lovely location with views of hills, fields and wildlife (not spoilt by the pylon which we barely noticed). Great communication from the owner, who was also really friendly. Toilet was clean and pleasant, located in a little cabin with separate shower room, too. The little shop on site was a great feature, and had we been staying longer, we would have certainly used it and tried some fresh local produce.

Liked: Easy to find and Huw met me on arrival. The pitch was a good size and had EHU. Clean single toilet and separate shower. Good views looking out over the marsh. Small amount of produce and items for sale in the reception shed. I was very impressed as i found some gluten free biscuits. I was the only person on site but i felt safe and secure.
Disliked: There is nothing i disliked.
