VW-Type Campervan - Non Electric Grass PitchesJun 2024

If you're looking for a no thrills, basic amenities grassy meadow with llamas and sheep then stay here. Facilities, toilets, showers and wash area were all good. Owner came to visit us and delivered wood for a campfire.

If only they could fix the weather

Small Tent - Non Electric Grass PitchesMay 2024

We arrived at the same time as torrential rain and had two days of dreadful wind and rain but it didn't dampen our spirits. Phillip, the owner, was incredible, providing a warm welcome, helping us pitch tent in between the rains and advising on the best spot to avoid getting the car stuck etc. The site itself is basic but hey it's camping! There are toilets on site which are reasonably clean, though would benefit from better lighting and the locks looking at as they're shared and some were tricky. The showers were a little too basic for us, but others used them quite happily. Lovely touches such as weekend pizza nights with mini bar, breakfast (pastries and fresh coffee), and the ice cream van calling much to the excitement of the kids. Even better, the on site animals, sheep, lambs, lama's and the two camels were a major draw for us and a good training opportunity for our puppy. Fire pits and logs were available though, we failed to manage a roaring fire this time. All in all, we loved it and will be back.

Would recommend this campsite to anyone

Arrived around 7.30pm. Contacted owner to let him know we were there and he dropped our pre ordered logs off, had a great chat with him - a great guy. Had a few drinks and got talking to a couple over the way. We had a great night having a few drinks with them.

Lovely site

The tranquility of the site was only matched by the friendliness of the staff and fellow campers. Everyone I met was warm and welcoming, creating a community feel that's often missing in our daily lives. Tomkins Farm is more than just a camping site; it's a retreat that offers a break from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. It's a place where you can reconnect with nature, enjoy the serenity of the lake, and be part of a friendly community. Hihly recommended for anyone looking for a beautiful, quiet, and friendly camping experience.

Phillip was an excellent host, the campsite was excellent and the facilities clean and accessible. The alpacas and camels entertained the kids and adults alike! We were grateful for the QR codes to order drinks and fire wood plus the coffee/ croissant van at the weekend and pizza oven on Saturday evenings.
