The site's glamping options mean you don't have to worry about the hassle of pitching your tent as it's all done for you.

The kitchen is equipped with a two ring cooker, a fridge and utensils, there is also a TV, sofa and full ensuite too. Outside is a decking area with outdoor seating. If you want to go all out, the safari tents are equipped with all your cooking necessities plus a settee and dining area, for a real home-away-from-home. Safari tents also include electric, small table and chairs and a little fridge for food. Please bring your own bedding.

Single Axle Caravan - Small Electric Hardstanding PitchesSep 2024

I stayed with my two children and dog - we had a great time. The facilities are good and the staff very helpful. The showers were hot and the general area was very clean and well managed. We hired a fire pit and had fires in the evening.

Not somewhere i'd rush back to

Small Tent - Non Electric Grass PitchesAug 2024

We arrived after the check in time but had received an email letting us know where we should be camped, but ended up just trying to find a quiet corner somewhere as there were no pitch markers that seemed to match the number we had been given. We ended up pitching between two fairly large groups (one around 20 people and kids, the other probably closer to 30-40 people and kids). One of the groups was fairly considerate but the larger group were still singing/playing guitar/playing music until nearly midnight, which was when a rave started! Somewhere close by was an extremely loud festival/rave/dance event that was still booming out when we left the site around 7:30am the following morning. One of the worst nights' sleep I have had camping. The facilities were on and fairly clean, but rather dated and with a good third of the toilets and showers out of action. There is a decent pub just over the river but you are taking your life in your own hands a bit if you decide to walk by the road, as there's no footpath and its poorly lit.
