Small Tent - Non Electric Grass Tent Pitches Aug 2025

Great spot with amazing views. The toilets and showers were really clean, which makes such a difference when camping. John was super helpful and welcoming, always around if you needed anything, with his two dogs happily trotting along behind the Subaru. Lovely place overall — would definitely come back!

Best night away

Large Tent - Non Electric Grass Tent Pitches Aug 2025

As soon as John answered the phone I knew I wanted to stay at their property. What an absolute treasure that we have found and we will definitely return. John is so accommodating, friendly and very personable. We would love to return and stay in the glamping tents and would highly recommend this site to anyone looking for a friendly, peaceful and relaxing stay. We cannot wait to come back. Thank you John 😊

Perfect timing
