Non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch
Liked: Lovely area, great woods for walking in, close walking distance to local villages.
Disliked: Not a fan of portallos (personal opinion but others may not mind this) but there were a lot scattered around the site so everyone wasn’t using the same one! Plus they were very clean! Further down the site a group of campers were playing loud music into the early hours which kept most of us awake!

From the manager: Hi Daniel thanks for the review please let us know if campers are been disruptive in any way as we would ask they stop playing the music immediately ,sorry that we were not aware of the music. The policy is that everyone stops playing music by 10 pm at the latest. Kind Regards Castle Gate

Liked: A gorgeous valley oasis surrounded by trees. Very well kept portaloos Hidden under the canopy. Fresh water taps by each one. Lovely walks along the canal and surrounding areas. Owners are extremely nice and helpful. BBQs allowed. Very sheltered. Ground soft but firm for pegs. The price. Cars allowed by pitch. Would highly recommend.

Liked: We had an incredible time at this location, which served as an excellent base for our adventures. The campsite was situated in a clearing surrounded by woods, and it was well-maintained and adequately marked. We had a sense of freedom to laugh out loud, joke, and play games because there was plenty of space to set up camp without being too close to anyone. All the other campers, including a sizeable group of young individuals, were well behaved and followed the rules while showing respect towards their neighbours. I highly recommend this place as it has a somewhat wild atmosphere and the toilets are evenly spread out throughout the site. Now that we’ve found it, we will return.
