This riverside campsite offers a wonderfully informal and natural escape where guests can pitch in a large, open field and enjoy the simple pleasures of outdoor life. The river is the heart of the experience, providing swimming, paddleboarding, fishing, and rope swings that children and adults alike adore. Fire pits are available to borrow for a small fee, often including logs, making evening campfires a nightly highlight under starry skies. The owners and staff are consistently praised for being exceptionally friendly, welcoming, and quick to resolve any issues that arise. Toilet facilities, while basic, are generally kept clean and well-stocked with toilet roll and hand soap. A small shop sells snacks, drinks, and camping essentials, and on select days homemade stone-baked pizzas are a hit for their taste and value. The site has a laid-back, back-to-nature atmosphere with few strict rules, ideal for families, groups, and those seeking a digital detox. There is no WiFi or mobile signal, which many appreciate as a chance to unplug. The entrance gate opens directly onto a busy road, which some find hazardous, and the bumpy farm track can be challenging for low-clearance vehicles. On busy weekends, the field can feel crowded, and occasional noise from other campers has been reported. There are no showers or drinking water taps on site, though this is clearly communicated at booking. The owners provide clear pre-arrival instructions, often sending a helpful text the day before with details. The site lacks rubbish bins, so guests must take all waste away with them, and some have noted litter left by others. Dogs must be kept under control, but they can enjoy the open space, though long walks require crossing a busy road. The long grass in some areas may be a concern for ticks, and a few dog owners have not cleaned up after their pets. Despite minor drawbacks, this charming, serene site delivers a perfect blend of riverside fun and genuine hospitality that encourages many guests to return year after year.
