Yes, it is a fairly peaceful site, although a couple of times during our fives days there, we had dog obedience/agility on the next field, so quite a lot of barking! It also appears as if there are some people living on the site in caravans, which seems to be against the rules. The first time I went to empty my waste and fill my on board water tank, I parked on the track leading to the farm, the s/c cottages and the fields beyond so, in order not to cause a blockage, I pulled slightly round the corner, meaning that my tank did not drain as the motorhome was on a slope because the waste disposal area could never be described as 'drive over' as the handbook says! It is a shallow trough at the side of the access track to the cottages, so a hose is definitely needed. If you want to fill your water tank from that same location, it involves walking, rather dangerously, over a rough and overgrown area behind the rubbish bins, after doing it once, I didn't fancy doing it again and risking breaking my ankle! I drove slowly onto the grass near the tap the next time, but when I was almost finished, the owner came out and was very rude to me and told me not to park on the grass and that I had to park on the access road, causing an obstruction to anyone in the cottages! I was not prepared to cause any obstruction, so we left the next day and will never return to this site. If you have a caravan, the site is good, but absolutely not suitable for motorhomes.
As an aside, the information room was devoid of any information and the toilet had no paper or towel, so not very useful either.
