Liked: Gorgeous site that is well kept. Toilets and communal area were cleaned regularly. Lots of games inside and out for the kids as well as a nice park and a tree swing. Duck pond is lovely and bonus of being able to buy fresh eggs in the morning for breakfast. Family friendly campsite and owners were welcoming. 2nd visit for us and will definitely be booking again in the near future.
Disliked: Nothing.

Liked: Lovely surroundings. Nice playarea for children. Friendly welcome staff
Disliked: Small pitches. Felt too cramped when full. Field taken over by one large group. We went out for the day and 2 cars parked next to our tent so we couldn’t park in our space which was a pain with sleeping children. We also weren’t keen on the unisex toilets and unfortunately some people left them in a real state.

Liked: The site has a lovely feel, owners are friendly and come round for a chat. Their dogs do the rounds too and are friendly and harmless but hoping for some bbq morsels. The site has some lovely unique features with a games room, duck and chicken eggs from the resident birds and an enclosed duck pond. There is a huge field for sports and goal posts were an added bonus for my footie mad son.
Disliked: There was little to dislike, pitches are perhaps closer together than other sites but it wasn’t a problem and just made for a friendly feel. There is only 1 sink for washing up which often meant queuing for a short while.

Liked: The site had a fab fenced recreational field, this had a lovely little play park for the children, football goals and a lovely seating area. The hens on site were so tame, it was great to see them so free range, the children loved that. The site was well maintained, with a stunning duck pond area with flower beds surrounding. The toilet and shower blocks were standard but clean and always restocked, fresh towels out consistently at each sink basin for hand drying. The communal room (we did not have chance to use on our stay as we were busy) was clean and tidy, it also kept with the farm theme and looked very inviting to use. The whole farm site tied together really nicely, giving off a fab atmosphere. We cannot wait to return later in the year to enjoy some warmer weather.

Liked: Just arrived back after our trip to Osprey Meadow. Loved the board that had our pitch number and name on, drove on and found our pitch by ourselves then Phil came along a short while later to check we were all okay. Loved the childrens park and the communal area with the tables and chairs, fussball table, darts board, colouring, microwave, kettle and fridge in, didn't use it much but definitely a great shelter if the weather was bad. The toilets and showers were clean (lovely lady cleaning then too) no heating in there but the water in the shower was red hot if wanted, no complaints. One washing up sink in the same barn as the toilets and showers, had washing up liquid (thank god because we forgot ours) tea towels for use there too, as well as hand towels which were replaced every morning. Loads of mirrors too which is a rarity I think on campsites. The site was only small and very quiet during our stay, with tents/campers round the edge of the field so could always see the kids playing. Great location, not too far from local attractions.
Disliked: Two free roam dogs who were well behaved and lovely don't get me wrong but just wasn't over keen on them sat waiting on you whilst you cooked and ate, we didn't feed them but it was obvious that other campers did. Early morning traffic coming from the neighbouring village to the main road on the week day morning but that's absolutely no reflection on the site.

Liked: Lovely site with excellent facilities and a brilliant play area for wee kids. The chickens & ducks were a particular highlight for our almost 2yr old daughter who was mesmerised for longer than we’ve ever known her entertained on a single thing before! :-D Really good showers and a welcome wee games/family area where the showers etc. are made some inclement weather whizz by too.
