We were happy with our stay, only one night on a long trip. It was quiet, since at end of season, but enjoyed the site.

The location is lovely - a gently sloping field surrounded by trees with the occasional deer peeping through. The café was also great - delicious food, good service, and friendly staff. There was no freezer block facility and no shop, so making an early morning cuppa wasn't possible without driving to get milk. It also meant that we couldn't store any food for long, so again, we had to drive to get supplies every day, rather than eat at the café all the time. Making a campfire using barbeque charcoal was a challenge, and not really successful. Campfire evenings are one of the highlights of a camping trip for us, so this was a bit disappointing. The toilets were generally clean, but there was no hand drying facility and toilet paper often ran low. It seemed that the focus of the campsite was on the café, rather than providing a traditional camping experience, but hopefully next year, the reception and shop will be up and running which will make a difference. If so, we will be back.
Lovely stay

Lovely stay with my toddler. Deer on site and little forest to explore. Cafe was very welcoming too. Toilets were clean, didn't use showers. It would be helpful to have signs up showing if the water at the washing up sinks is drinkable or not. A bag of charcoal was in the fire pit to be used but nothing to light the charcoal so we couldn't use it. Next time we will be better prepared- we had lighter and matches but nothing to light!
