Electric grass tent pitch
Liked: We loved the remote feel to the site, and the location to so many beautiful little towns was perfect. The owner was really lovely, and the site just felt less commercial and more of a quiet retreat which we loved. Facilities were clean and replenished often. Showers are only 20p per minute which is super cheap. The electric on site was free, and had no problem powering lots of items.

Electric grass tent pitch
Liked: Nice quite countryside location. Not too far to plenty of pubs & shops by a short drive. Wash facilities are basic. And should it rain be prepared to wash outside as it’s not undercover. Showers & toilets are basic but perfectly adequate. There is a small fee to pay for shower but it’s worth it. £1 gets you 5 mins. If you want less time it’s just 20p a minute. Site owner was very helpful & always around if needed.

Electric grass tent pitch
Liked: Nice quiet campsite. With open space for the kids to play without disturbing anyone. Owner met us at the entrance and guided us to our pitch are, pitches aren't solidly defined, we were advised which area get full sun partial shade etc. Areas to avoid with the car (soft verges on the road) he even popped back to check we were set up ok. Facilities were basic but clean enough (£1 for 5 min shower) outdoor dish cleaning area.
