Gypsy Caravan - Bow Top Gypsy CaravanOct 2024

We had a wonderful trip to Black Beck Farm for my partner's birthday. The bow top caravan is the perfect mix of a rustic retreat and cosy comfort. We had a lovely visit to the nearby White Hart Inn then spent the evening playing cards and listening to the rain fall on the tarp of the caravan. The site is absolutely idyllic and teaming with wildlife. Unfortunately, we didn't have the pleasure of meeting Ann but Neil was a perfect, attentive host and an absolute pleasure to deal with. We'll certainly be recommending Black Beck Farm to our family and friends and would love to visit again ourselves. Thank you for helping us have such a incredible time.

Gypsy Caravan - Bow Top Gypsy CaravanSep 2024

Had the most amazing time in the Bow Top Gypsy Caravan. The van was so cosy, quaint and the facilities on site were well maintained, clean and well lit. The views were stunning and the hosts were fantastic (left us wood for the stove and brought us more on request). This will be our new go to site for weekends away. Jamie &Tara
