A note from the site themselves...

Our site is all about harking back to the days gone by of "real" camping, with paired-backed facilities and a fabulous lack of modern intrusions. We welcome guests to come here for a digital detox, to get back to nature and enjoy the gorgeous surroundings. We hope to meet you soon, John

Motorhome - Large Non Electric Grass Pitches (Riverside with Mountain View)Apr 2025

We really enjoyed our stay here. We paid for the riverside and mountain view pitches and it didn't disappoint! The views were stunning and the river was the perfect spot for the children, adults and the dog. We used The Stables fish and chip shop (would recommend calling to pre order before collecting!) Which was a 12 min drive away. The facilities were clean, the showers were warm and there was always toilet roll and soap too. John was super helpful, and checked in to make sure everything was okay too. Thank you, looking forward to returning again!

Lovely site, warm welcome, highly recommend

Medium Tent - Non Electric Grass Tent Pitches Apr 2025

Back for a second time. John remembered us and gave us a warm welcome. Such a beautiful location a long way from a main road. Perfect location for camping whilst paragliding or hiking the Offa's path. Will be back again.

Beautiful rural retreat

Large Tent - Non Electric Grass Tent Pitches Aug 2024

Very enjoyable stay, surrounded by lovely countryside. The sky on a clear night was amazing for star gazing and you could hear the owls calling to each other. John was very friendly and his site was very well kept.
