This working farm campsite offers a wonderfully peaceful and quiet escape, set within large fields adjacent to a working farm. Guests consistently praise the welcoming and genuinely friendly staff, who go out of their way to provide excellent service, from ensuring a smooth arrival to offering helpful local advice. The presence of farm animals like sheep, cows, pigs, and chickens is a delightful bonus, especially for children, adding to the charm of the open space and beautiful views. The location is excellent for outdoor enthusiasts, sitting directly on the Round the Island cycling path and just a short walk from the coastal path, making it ideal for touring the area. Despite its rural feel, the site is only about four miles from Newport, providing easy access to town amenities. The camping fields are spacious, often with so few other guests that one can enjoy a whole field to themselves. However, the facilities receive mixed feedback; the solar-powered showers suffer from drainage issues and lack of cleanliness, while the toilets are described as basic. Some visitors have noted drawbacks during certain stays, such as ongoing building works or maintenance in close proximity to the pitches, which can detract from the tranquility. There have also been reports of untidiness around the site and the presence of caravans not typically allowed. The terrain is on an incline and some areas have large ruts and holes, which may pose a tripping hazard for children. Despite these occasional issues, the overall sentiment is highly positive, with many guests planning return visits. The hosts' kindness, including gestures like sharing tea and biscuits, creates a memorable experience. For those seeking a rural, animal-friendly camping experience with attentive staff, this site is a strong recommendation.
