Powered grass campsite
Liked: Simplicity of the site, 2 great showers, a couple of portaloos, a washing up area (big enough to bath a child in!) and a chemical disposal point. Plenty of water taps and the electric hook up we had was fine. Set in lovely countryside, views, sunsets and dark sky were brilliant. Richard was on hand all the time and seemed to be always checking and cleaning the facilities. Couple of pubs not too far far away, one on the Saints Way, about a miles walk. Firewood for your firepit available from Richard.
Disliked: A table or shelf would be useful in the washing up area to put your items on.

Primitive grass campsite
Liked: Back to basics site with toilet, shower, chemical disposal and bins. Fire pits allowed, bbq allowed, THE most amazing night sky. Really dark so lots of stars and super quiet, resident owl somewhere around, just a super peaceful place to escape to. Plenty of walks and accessible to main roads if needed.

Liked: Richard the farmer is lovely, very accommodating and full of advice for things to do. Great views of Helman Tor. Plenty of space, nice clean loos and warm water for washing up.
Disliked: Unfortunately the ground was quite wet from all the rain this week but there is a good solid path, a tractor on hand and some good advice on where to park and how to get good traction!

Primitive grass campsite
Liked: Arrived 1.55hrs early, was not a problem! Advised to move to the bottom of the field as it was less sodden. Offered wood for fire pit although we chose not to. Was making our meal when a tractor appeared in front of us bearing a portaloo which was placed near to our camper. What better service could you ask for? A beautiful rural place to stay, with everything you need! Would definitely recommend and will return.

Powered grass campsite
Liked: Nice open feild with lots of space and places to pick to pitch up. Close to the Eden project.
Disliked: No proper toilets. Only proterloos. The showers were so small. Only about 60cm of dry space to get dressed. Water pressure was awful and kept going cold. No real signs to locate the ground. Just a roughly painted piece of wood.

From the manager: Hi Laura thank you for your negative feedback We are a basic campsite On pitchup we are advertising as having portaloos The showers have plenty of space for changing over 2 feet I don't know whst is your problem with that The showers do work if you press the button a few times it will come out hot There are 3 well located signs on the road to the campsite it is just bizarre that you could not see them Pleanty of Happy campers been here Pleanty our coming back again Happy camping Richard I
