Rural Relaxing

喜欢: This is a charming little site with beautiful views. My family and I stayed in our campervan, next door to my sister and family in one of the safari tents. The weather was glorious (unforecast!), and in advance the owner had kindly offered to move our dates in case we got stuck in the mud. Very glad we decided to come anyway! The cafe is great, very handy; the loos very clean and well stocked with everything from suncream to shampoo. Lovely walk into the village, with its excellent pub and brook for paddling.

不喜欢: No staff on site outside of cafe opening meant we ran out of loo roll in the ladies on Sunday morning. But I always bring some so it was only a small inconvenience.

来自经理: We were all thrilled to read your lovely review and we appreciate the time you have taken to write this. In common with other campsites, and in our arrival details, we always ask guests to bring loo rolls as ours disappear very quickly. We also sell them on site above the Camper's fridges in a box marked "loo rolls" and there's an honesty box for payment - there were plenty there as I checked this morning (Tuesday). We top up loo rolls regularly but over the weekend it all seemed to go very quickly! I think some did go walking! I apologise for any inconvenience.

喜欢: This place is absolutely magical!! First time camping with littlies and opted for the safari tent. What an experience! The tent was beautifully laid out with all the home comforts. We spent most of our time on the huge decking area and field, the kids absolutely loved it. Bathrooms were lovely, super clean and brilliantly decorated (who doesn't love bird wallpaper?!). We didn't realise there was a cafe on site, an absolute god send in the mornings. A bacon sandwich, sat out in the sunshine was heaven. The village is so picture postcard, it's gorgeous. A play park for toddlers is a five minute walk away and had everything they loved. Then just a little further and there was a ford where we took the kids paddling. Honesty cannot wait to go back! Thank you so much.

We were absolutely delighted to read your review, we are a tiny site and like to keep things "home from home", myself and our young staff and kitchen team go out of their way to make the experience lovely for everyone and we are thrilled you enjoyed your stay with us, we can't wait to see you again!

喜欢: Nice small site with character in great location. Good facilities and cafe on site open mornings at weekend. Pretty village with small shop for essentials. Very good pub with excellent food.

不喜欢: Nothing.

来自经理: Thank you for your comments, I was very pleased to read you enjoyed your stay and look forward to welcoming you again one day.

喜欢: The sight was beautiful, with lovely views.

不喜欢: The air bed was flat, I pumped it up but woke at midnight on the floor. There was no one to speak to on the site. Thankfully I had taken two spare beds incase I needed them. Also we had adults in the bell tent next door who kept me awake from midnight until 4:30am. They were shouting loudly and were swearing etc.

来自经理: Thank you for your review. We blew up the airbed for you after you informed us that it had gone flat, indeed we replaced it with a new one. I am sorry that this happened. Regarding the people next door - this should have been reported to us - we are contactable every day by telephone, we come to site daily and in the village when we are not on site, we were on site Friday, Saturday and Sunday mornings running the coffee hut so could have easily spoken to the guests next door - everyone is strictly informed about the quiet policy and I am sorry to hear you experience this - we are a family site, as such have quiet time rules from 11pm until 7am and could have spoken to them for you but on this occasion we were not informed so couldn't assist you. Our rule states that guests will be asked to leave if they are noisy. I see you will visit again and I hope that next time you will find everything less disturbing.

喜欢: Breakfast and coffee offered in the mornings. Lovely staff and good quality food.

不喜欢: Stayed in a teepee tent and a cushion mattress on a wooden frame on the floor was uncomfortable not very romantic. The wooden bench outside could have done with a lick of paint was old and falling apart.The toilet was at the opposite side of the field

来自经理: Thank you for your review. The bell tent description clearly states air beds and futons, we invite you to bring your own bedding as it is a pre-erected tent. I am sorry that you were uncomfortable on the bed. Thank you for your feedback on the benches, new benches have been re-ordered and we are still waiting for them to arrive. The map on the site shows where the loo and shower facilities are, it's a tiny site under 1 acre so it's not far to walk, & most people love the fact that the loos are not "right on top of them", otherwise it would be a composting loo next to your tent where there is another issue of smell. I hope you visit again, please consider the safari tents next time which have proper beds in them.

喜欢: Wonderful kid-friendly site. Very secure so kids will tend to all group together and play across the site. This is great for grown-up relaxation.

不喜欢: The stocks of firewood etc are not renewed often so people had to bring their own.

来自经理: Thank you for your review. I am pleased you enjoyed your stay, we aim to be as rural as possible and I'm glad you found the site safe & relaxed. The stocks of firewood are regularly made, regrettably, the man who supplies this last week had problems with a vehicle which meant we became short of stock very quickly. This has been remedied today, often others grab more than is necessary and infact today have found much surplus around the site. I look forward to welcoming you again.

喜欢: Easy access, great field, lovely location very positive, lovely little morning cafe on a Saturday and Sunday.

不喜欢: The facilities for showering and using the toilet are great but what let this site down for us personally is unless you are up and showered before 9am it’s just a little bit embarrassing. The great little onsite cafe opens at 9am- lovely food and staff. It attracts cyclists and others to come to the site which in itself isn’t a problem it’s just you have to walk through all these people enjoying their breakfasts with your change of clothes and shower stuff to get to the shower block and then share the toilets.

来自经理: Hello thank you for your review. I am pleased you enjoyed your stay with us and will visit again. The cafe area opens at 9am and we've not had any negative feedback in the past about this and I was surprised to read this. Indeed we have planted trees to screen this just to make the cafe area defined from the camping field, I guess it's only really "embarrassing" if you go to the showers in pyjamas/onesies rather than being dressed, so my apologies that you felt uncomfortable. I will look at the seating to see what can be changed. Delighted to see you enjoyed the breakfast. Hope to welcome you back one day.

喜欢: First time at Rural Retreat, nice quiet site in a lovely village. Caroline (the owner) could not have been more helpful, before and on arrival, she was friendly and a very happy person. Had full English at her cafe, spot on with local produce and friendly staff.
