Primitive grass tent or trailer tent campsite
Liked: The most magical campsite. Many of the pitches are very private which makes you feel like you’re in your own personal fairytale. Lovely light in the evening and the trees were losing their blossoms which made it feel like it was snowing in May. We saw a barn owl hunting as we had our campfire. Really lovely, friendly hosts and plenty of good, clean facilities. We really enjoyed our stay!

Primitive grass tent or trailer tent campsite
Liked: Welcoming, friendly and helpful owners (thanks Laura!). A long wooded meadow like site with a brook, pond and very well spaced pitches giving a peaceful wild camping feel. Nearby rights of way along farm land, so great for dog walks. Compost loos every so often along site, so not too far to walk. There is a wash up station, drinking water point, shower and bins (including full recycling) located at the start of the site but we didn't use the shower. There is a rural road close by the pitches but it was quiet during the night. Unfortunately for us we stayed during a horrible weekend of weather, but we can see how lovely this site will be in summer, so will be back!
Disliked: Only one small niggle for us was my wife found the compost loo seat too high.

Primitive grass tent or trailer tent campsite
Liked: Tranquility, beautiful natural camping. Perfect place to relax and enjoy being present. So nice to stay in such a natural setting where the owners have put nature before profit. The secluded camping pitches that are nestle amongst the wild grasses and trees are beautiful. It was so quiet with little light pollution and natural shade from the trees. The owners provide firepits on the pitches and some have wooden benches or picnic tables. Where they are set amongst the trees hammocks are also provided. The compost toilets are extremely clean and user friendly. Truly the best camping site I have visited in UK for nature, peace and sustainability. Thank you.

Liked: Welcome text before arrival, really felt for the owners had torrential rain, did our best to not disturb there camp site, unfortunately other guests didn't respect there camp and made the ground undrivable, for there own selfish reasons, hosts came up with solutions to make the camp drivable and personally came to my tent to explain how they could help, Tbh with the weather how it was it was I couldn't Of asked more than they offered, but feel they would of gone further should of I have asked, thank you so much x

Toad camping pod
Liked: My adult daughter and I spent two nights in Toad, a lovely hut with a very comfortable large bed which was made up before we arrived, indoor table & chairs and a sofa (which can convert to a bed); outdoor picnic bench, camping chairs, chiminea and bbq for own use. A short walk across the field to a communal hot shower and compost toilet and a fridge,freezer and power points just across the road. No electricity in the hut but it has battery powered lighting. Very easy check in and friendly service. Nice walk around the adjacent wheat field. Dog friendly. Pretty pub nearby, the 5 Bells in Rattlesden, with a big garden and quality hamburger van outside which has a good veggie option and who will deliver to your table.
