The campsite was brilliant. We loved it and had a thoroughly fab time. We were fine without a hook up and had a hassle-free and very pleasant stay. The location was amazing and the fact a pizza van came at the weekend was fab too. A couple of points are that the recycling took a while to be emptied and that the men's toilets, although clean had a distinct wiff. We managed to get a flat space although these are sought after. Overwhelming though- a great find and would love to go back.

Lovely site!

A lovely site. We have had a very enjoyable weekend! A very large and busy site. On both evenings, we have heard noise from other guests til gone 1am. The facilities are good and it's very good that the showers are free of charge. The toilets sometimes looked like they needed a clean around the sink areas, but we do understand that they are serving a lot of people. Only a few washing up sinks had plugs so you had to go searching for one. We would recommend this site for families and get togethers. I would think it would be quieter in the week! Thanks again.

Great campsite and facilities

Lovely campsite, we went with a group of friends and had a fabulous time. We had both sunshine and rain, the site is sheltered yet still provides wonderful scenery and views into the valley. We had 8 children with us, ranging from 2-9 years and the site was safe and had plenty to keep them entertained. NB the games room requires 50p coins and £1 coins to operate. The only negative was the cleanliness - generally okay and I think the loos were cleaned twice daily…the quality of the clean could be improved. Plenty of facilities though for washing, showers etc, including adult-only showers, and pot wash areas etc were great. Great value for money and I would return!

Brilliant!

Our first camping trip with our daughters and the facilities were spot on. The showers were lovely and clean. Added bonus of a breakfast cob van. Wood fired pizza and only a short walk to nearby pubs. Site was perfect for the children with plenty of little play areas to keep them occupied.

Lovely campsite

Difficult to find fault with this site. Facilities are great, showers and toilets always clean and always hot water for showers. Great walks all round without the need to drive off site. Only improvement I would suggest is that the shop could be open more often and better stocked.

Lovely campsite

No hot water in pot wash area and was very sporadic in the shower area The private cubicles were nice. Mark was very helpful and friendly. Peacocks were lovely to see but can be noisy if you are in a tent. Take earplugs. It's a bigger campsite than we would normally choose, but we were there for a wedding. The barns were great, the bigger one was fab for a get together with friends. The one for a couple was really nice. This is a good all round campsite that can facilitate everyone's needs.

Fantastic campsite

This was our first stay at Barn Farm and we absolutely loved it. The site is immaculate. Despite a lot of rain, the fields held up amazingly well and we had no issues moving about the site. The facilities are spot on - clean toilets and showers, well-stocked shop and little extras that we wouldn't expect, but that made our trip all the more enjoyable. We are already planning our next visit.

Good site and lovely location

It has to be said that the location is by far the best aspect of this site; stunning countryside with fantastic views and so many great places to visit within a few miles. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay! The site was very quiet, with few campers which was actually quite nice as we'd expected that the site would be fairly booked up. I would imagine the facilities might have been a bit stretched if the site had been fully booked as the camping fields are extensive and, unless I'm mistaken, there is a total of 16 shower rooms available for the site. We'd definitely come back as the negatives outweighed the positives by some way and as I mentioned, you cannot get much better location wise.

Perfect site!

Brilliant campsite. Everything you need without being over commercialised. The added extra of the use of the barn in bad weather was fab and we were so grateful to have this warm, dry space.

Absolutely gorgeous site. Views amazing. Will definitely stay there again but would like to be nearer toilet and shower facilities due to mobility difficulties. Although the site I was on was lovely, if the barn there could be made into toilets, that would be amazing. I loved Barn Farm and its lovely to see young people there doing their D of E. Thank you.

Great campsite
