Primitive grass tent campsite (small)
Liked: Very friendly reception from the owners on arrival. We found a good flat pitch with great view's of the fells.
There are lovely villages and towns, within reach, for supplies and such.
We would certainly come back here again.
Disliked: The toilet facilities are really nice and also very clean. Some people may find it limiting, if the site is quite full, as there is only one. Also there is just a sink and no shower, however the price reflects this and is very reasonable considering how nice the site is.

Disliked: Just grass, booked gravel and grass. But there isn't any gravel pitches. As only one toilet having to wait to go. No running hot water in bathroom

From the manager: Hi Many thanks for the information, and feedback, much appreciated. We will have to look at the wording on the details with Pitch Up as I can see it must be misleading. We do have 2 bathrooms, so apologies for this. Thank you again, kind regards Julie and Steve

Primitive grass tent campsite (small)
Liked: Lovely, quiet site with beautiful views over the countryside. Great walks a short drive away. We had a day walking in the Trough of Bowland, which was stunning.
Steve was there when I arrived and took me up to the camping field, showed me where everything was and pointed out a quiet spot in the corner for me.
The toilet in the sheep-wagon was clean and airy. Two taps outside for drinking water.
