Stunning views, quiet, basic and lovely site. Facilities clean and working showers (although flow and temp not what expected). Shower gel provided. 1 shower didn't lock.

Thanks for your review. We do try to manage expectations around the showers with pre-arrival information and signage. The broken lock is now fixed :-)

We stayed one night at this campsite to trial our new little 4 man tent. It seemed fairly busy, but not cramped, and all the pitches are marked out with plenty of space between neighbours. The view out to sea and across fields is truly beautiful. I was impressed with the toilet facilities, kept very clean and well stocked. We didn't use the showers. Lovely lady greeted us on arrival in a Jeep and brought us our hired fire pit. The only down side to having the stunning hilltop views is the wind. Our tent flapped around a lot in the night which kept me awake but I realised that may be a problem I was willing to risk it for. Bring ear plugs.

Just superb, wonderful location and great campsite. On the downside, just needs more facilities as only two toilets. However, will not stop me recommending and returning.

This is a lovely spot and the reception was very friendly. The toilets were spotless. However, we were disappointed not to find the Farm shop open and available. Apparently it needs 48 hours notice.
Site's response
Thank you for your review and we are glad you enjoyed the site. Sorry you were disappointed that there was no shop. I did double check the website and it does state that this is the case. We do also send pre-arrival details for food orders which give warning of the 48 hours notice. We hope you can make it back and have the chance to try some of the lovely home produce we offer :-)

We really enjoyed our stay at Stud Farm, it had everything we needed: wonderful views, good facilities, peace and quiet and a great location. Couldn't fault the site, but was very windy so make sure you pack your pegs! Very happy customers, would definitely stay again.
Site's response
Thanks so much for your review. Yes, it can get pretty windy up here, it is a bit more sheltered down by the trees, but that means having to forgo the sea views! We hope you make it back again :-)

A beautiful spot, restful, natural and understated. The location was superb with loads of space for dog walking, but don't forget everything you need, as it's a long way from anywhere to get stuff. Perfect, thoroughly recommend it.
Site's response
Thanks for your positive review, we are glad you found us. There is definitely a feeling of remoteness on the top of the hill. Thankfully there is a shop in walking distance for emergency food supplies at least!

Does what it says on the tin - great, back to basics camping and lovely sea view from the top of campsite - just prepare for wind as it the hill gets a lot!
Site's response
Thanks for the review, it is true we are somewhat exposed to the elements, particularly on the sea view pitches. We hope to see you again :-)

Great campsite! Lovely views, friendly owners, clean facilities and very relaxing. Showers were a bit hit or miss with temperature and pressure, but worth it for how brilliant everything else was. Had an absolutely great time!

Lovely campsite with great views of the sea and a friendly welcome when we arrived. Great to be able to hire a fire pit too. Only downside was a cold and temperamental shower!

Being just over an hour drive from our home, Stud Farm was a perfect location for our maiden camper van trip. We were looking for a quiet site away from hustle and bustle and the site delivered with the added attraction of numerous lovely walks on the doorstep. Spotless toilet block!

Water pressure was very poor. However, there were signs everywhere to let campers know this. I couldn't shower, so had a wash in the tent with a kettle of hot water.
Fab location

Great couple nights we had with our dog. Facilities were good enough for our length of stay. The views of the surrounding areas are brilliant to wake up. A short walk to the next field is a coffee shop, and little bit longer to a Tesco for all the bits we forget Would recommend!

We had an amazing time here. The simplicity and back to nature feel of this campsite made it the ideal getaway for our little family. We loved the location, the walk across the fields to the seaside (approx 30-40 mins) and the beautiful moonlight view over the sea in the distance back at the site. Michelle, who worked at the site, was very friendly and helpful. We felt welcomed and very at ease. Unfortunately, we came during the hot weather when water was limited so we couldn't have a shower the next day. Being on or near a farm meant the water had to be prioritised for the farm animals. This could be an issue if you need your showers in the morning, hence the 3 stars. However, the facilities were modern and clean and we still managed to use the sinks for a wash etc. I'm sure this is only an issue during the driest of weather. If you're looking for a close to nature and quiet campsite near the sea, this is the one for you. We highly recommend it!
