A note from the site themselves...

I have been fortunate to travel and to work overseas, spending a good amount of time in New Zealand, America and Malaysia I have used these experiences to create what I would like from a campsite.

Along with gaining incite while visiting other countries, I do a lot outdoors in the UK as a coach educator for British Canoeing, a mountain leader, mountain bike coach, bushcraft activity leader and a Duke of Edinburgh expedition assessor. Through the Covid lockdowns, I appreciated what I had in my local area and have taken the decision to share my space with others.

Small Tent - Deluxe Non Electric Grass PitchesAug 2024

Stayed with my partner for a few nights and had a great time, we had a good amount of privacy and we had our own toilet and kitchen area and could use our camping stove. Rhys the owner is lovely and kept communication with us before and during our stay and suggested some places for us to do water sports near by. If you want to explore around the area it's best to come by car as places are at least 20 mins by drive. Overall we had a great time camping and would definitely return.

Great place

Medium Tent - Deluxe Non Electric Grass PitchesAug 2024

This was a fantastic site. We had a great time. The pitch was a great size and the "kitchen" was really useful when we had some rain. The compost toilets, showers and washing up areas were very clean. The owner was very friendly and helpful with suggestions for where to visit Do be prepared to push your stuff along the track in the big wheelbarrows provided. The upside of this is that it would be safe for young children to run around the site without the worry of vehicles. We definitely intend to return!

Peaceful
