Disappointed

Admittedly it was raining but there was no one to welcome us and we were dismayed to find the pitches were very tight to get into, little room to manoeuvre. Nobody ever appeared, other than the five llamas which are quite sweet. You need a token for the shower, but reception was closed. The site is situated in a sloping field, though the pitches are level. There are no views and no walks from the site. We left the next morning and won’t be returning.It may be very nice in summer, if you like feeling enclosed and have a car so you can use it as a base.

We had a lovely stay!

Probably best to ignore the earlier negative reviews of this site, as it has obviously improved over the years. Nice level hardstanding pitches cut into a grassy hill. Grass areas between pitches was cut short and picnic benches provided on four of the pitches. Very peaceful, the alpacas were cute! Didn't notice their droppings anywhere really, unlike previous reviewer. Also, water tap is next to pitches and not halfway up a hill as previously stated. Facilities were very good, though no hand soap provided in the toilet and just a filthy, smelly towel to dry hands on. I would have given 5 stars otherwise, but really think for £15 a night, not providing some basic soap (Aldi - 4 bars for £1) and paper towels is a bit penny pinching. Shower costs a quid but gave six good minutes of hot water so easily enough for two people to shower if you make haste. Overall, great location, lovely site, enjoyed it.

Well we enjoyed our stay

I was cautious of the previous reviews, but arrived 22/2/19 for two nights as we needed hardstandings for our 7.2m motorhome. I really don't understand what the problem was. The pitches suited a motorhome, I used pitch 5 and sat back to enjoy the views of the woods, lakes and Alpacas. The shower and toilet block was in fact a pair of converted camping pods, all very plush and quirky. We thought the converted double decker bus in its own enclosure was also novel and may consider booking that another time. Had no problem arranging to pay, asked to meet in the bar that evening. The hotel and restaurant does not impact on the site, we enjoyed our stay and will return again.

A relaxing stay

We visited this site with friends and were surprised about the previous negative reviews. Reception was closed when we arrived so we phoned and were told to make ourselves at home which we did and pay later when it opened. When we met the owners they were very helpful. We both had motorhomes and found the pitches were fine and the toilet was clean. The alpacas were inquisitive but kept their distance and kept our dogs amused. We would both certainly return in the future. We were an adult only party.

Could be so much better

Visited this site spontaneously. Arrived, booked in, told restaurant was closed. Drove to pitch. En route passed overflowing rubbish and recycling bins, then an old broken down double decker bus with what looked like old parts on the ground beside it, then a static caravan with lots of things that might be handy one day scattered around it, then some unfinished earth works and then to the pitches cut into a bank. The site is in a hollow surrounded by trees so restricted views. Five alpacas and a few ducks wandered freely through the site, unfortunately leaving their waste liberally sprinkled everywhere. ( dog owners and parents with young children please note) Shower and toilet clean and well equipped but only one of each for 5 pitches...tokens required. Site was quiet and well placed for local sites
