VW-Type Campervan - Electric Grass PitchesJun 2025

Called the owner on arrival and were met in 2 minutes. Choice of pitches, great large spaces with electric and water at the pitch. Large dog walking area and only 10 minute walk from a Rick Stein pub, great Guinness. Clean facilities and well kept camping fields. Peaceful and relaxing.

Single Axle Caravan - Electric Grass PitchesJun 2025

Lovely, clean, quiet, and large site with lovely views and great wash/laundry facilities. The site is big but it wasn't overcrowded. The caravans, tents, motorhomes etc were spread about so you had plenty of space. The toilet/shower block was very clean with 3 showers available. The only criticism I would have is that it could have done with maybe a plastic chair or bench in the shower to place shampoo etc on and to help older campers when changing. We'd also like to meet either camp owners or members of staff as although we arrived late and were given instructions over the phone about where to pitch etc, in the 7 nights we were there, nobody made themselves known to us. All in all, a great stay on a lovely site.
