Liked: A really nice site. The majority of the pitches have an unobscured view across the fields with beautiful views. Incredibly clean toilets and showers. The portaloo style shower was very spacious and clean with plenty of hot water. We were only due to stay one night but liked it so much we stayed a second. We’ll be back.
