Non-electric grass and earth tent or motorhome pitch (wild)
Liked: You can park anywhere you like, The staff are really friendly, the toilet and shower facilities are in a converted cow shed which has been really nicely converted. Shower water was nice and hot.
Disliked: Can be a little cold after a shower in the winter due to the showers and toilets not being in an inclosed barn.

Liked: Set in a lovely valley the place offers the peace and tranquillity and it's vast so you won't have that "overcrowded" feeling you can experience on many other sites. The customer service is exceptional. Thanks again Stuart for helping me to change a tyre on my car on early Sunday morning!

Liked: I loved bush farm’s wild and spacious camping fields and stunning views. The showers and toilets were really clean, there was eco washing up liquid provided and plenty of toilet paper. I especially loved the shower, it’s a really cool design and very powerful! The only thing that could’ve made my stay better would’ve been a single person discount.

Liked: Wild camping style site, freedom, space, peace!! The facilities were perfect for the style of site:
Disliked: In wet weather the site is much more accessible by 4x4 and if you have a roof tent / can there are more options of where to camp.

Liked: Amazing set up. Choice of fields by water, in the orchard, on a hill - set up where you want. I pitched in the orchard and no other campers in sight. Very quiet and peaceful and beautiful dark sky. I managed to walk 5 miles one day just exploring the campsite. River deep enough to swim in. Hot showers and flushing loos whilst wild camping - what’s not to like?

Liked: Loved being able to choose own pitch & so much space to choose from. Very rustic, everything you need is there. Well behaved dogs being allowed to be off lead was awesome & loads of acres to walk round & river to splash in for them. Got stuck in the field overnight after some rain & got a cheerful tow out from the hosts & their landrover. Had to leave early sadly after an emergency phonecall but would 100% recommend
Disliked: Nothing
