Liked: Friendly welcome, we were impressed with how clean the whole site was. Liked the cabin with use of fridge and freezer,and having somewhere to sit out of the rain was luxury!! A short walk to the village pub where we had some very good food. A very well run camp site. Also level pitches!

Liked: A good size pitch and a wooden bench at each pitch which is a great touch. Very clean facilities and the hot water was very hot! Not many pitches available which made it nice. Fab location for walkers, cyclists and those wanting to visit nearby areas of spectacular beauty.
