Liked: The open camping field has a beautiful meadow next to it and is surrounded by hedges. Camping mid-week it was quiet (6 or so others, but lots of space) with the occasional wild bunny appearance. Definitely get the farm and adventure playground add-on for your stay (you need an adult one too and have to accompany them). It means you can go anytime and the farm is just amazing - lots to see, accessible, SEN-friendly. The playground is good too, though more for under 10s. You can have an open fire on the ground, though do need to purchase the right to a fire and wood from the campsite (the initial package includes kindling and fire-starter). They come round a few times a day to make sure you have what you need.
Disliked: The camping is pretty basic for the price and if you want to camp under a tree, you may need to pay a premium. The four washing up stations are cold-water only and don't have any shade. We were lucky, but on a full summer day it would be baking. The toilets are port-a-potties with pump-action flush and no lights at night. There are showers but both these and the toilets aren't on a level base, so don't quite work as expected. There are though nicer toilets nearer the farm, but it's too much of a trek for regular visits. They are open that on a weekday there isn't anyone on the farm at nights should there be an issue - and that also means not nearby. Though to their credit they will make every effort to resolve an issue to everyone's satisfaction.
