A beautiful location and friendly staff. This site offers a great base to explore the surrounding areas. Some very useful items to buy on site in the shop and the individual log burners which can be rented are excellent. The owner offers a limited but very pleasant cooked this menu. The downsides would be the overall washing and ablution facilities. These were accessed via a single door and on both days they were flooded, making washing of any kind less than ideal. The issue was raised and staff tried to make amends, but the facilities are just too small for the demands of the site.
Beautiful, peaceful and friendly

Gorgeous views from the big wildflower meadow where I camped. Super friendly staff. A sense of spaciousness as there's plenty of space between pitches. Great that this is wild camping, but there are some toilets and showers available too.
Wonderful (almost) wild camping

I've never quite dared to wild camp, but this extensive yet uncrowded site was a perfect compromise. I had my own pitch, nestled under a oak with the river below and could be quite undisturbed. Staff were fantastic and I used the site as a base to explore the area by bike.
Brilliant

This was our first nearly wild camping experience and we loved it. The location and surroundings are beautiful. We booked a woodland pitch which was really great. Only thing I'd say is the first one we were shown wasn't accessible because we have a pop top VW so mention that when you book. The second pitch was perfect with views over the valley and forest. The walks surrounding the camp are really beautiful. We particularly enjoyed the walk that ran alongside the estuary to The George pub. We used the showers and toilet block and they were kept clean at all times. In arriving we ordered some Thai food that's made by the owner and it was sensational, cooked fresh and delivered to our pitch at a pre ordered time. There is a little shop onsite, we ran out of milk but got sorted here without having to drive out to find any. We hired a fire pit and toasted marshmallows it was all in all a perfect stay. Even the rain couldn't spoil it and boy did it rain. I would highly recommend this camp.

We had an amazing stay here and will definitely be returning in the future. We were greeted at the farmhouse by Sean on arrival who gave us a tour of the facilities and showed us to our pitch. We were offered a couple of pitches to choose from. which was great. I can't commend Sean enough he was incredibly helpful and went out of his way to ensure we were happy and had everything we needed for a fun and enjoyable stay!
Fantastic relaxing friendly site

If you like wild camping this is perfect for you, pick the forest plots and you get nothing nut peace and quiet, shade from the sun and nothing else. The facilities are basic and clean, but more than adequate. The staff are very friendly and could not be more helpful. The only criticism would be that the car park and communal areas could do with a good tidy up as there are things lying around all over, but that is a minor criticism. Highly recommend!

A great site. I prefer to be secluded when I'm camping, and they gave me this amazing hidden pitch in the woodlands. Waking up in the woods to the sound of birds and a gentle stream was bliss.
Love it!

We stayed from Monday to Wednesday in a forest pitch. We had friends who booked separately and they found us a pitch which could accommodate everyone. Amazing site with showers, places to wash up and toilets open 24/7, just a short walk from our pitch. As this is an isolated spot, there is limited phone service. From our group of 6, only 2 had service on EE and 3. I'm with O2 and got no service on the site for the whole stay, but that was a good thing in my opinion!
Perfect

Firstly, we received a lovely welcome from the staff and owner. The pitches are very private and quite flat. We had the unexpected surprise of good warm showers. They're new this year. The site is quiet and peaceful with a relaxed, easy going atmosphere. The scenery is fabulous being in a forest right on the estuary. And there's wildlife galore. There are cheaper sites around but they don't offer the privacy or experience of woodland camping.
