St. Peter's Farm Campsite
This campsite offers a large, spacious field where guests can choose their own pitch, making it ideal for those who appreciate freedom and flexibility. The owner, frequently mentioned as Jon, is consistently described as friendly, welcoming, and helpful, often going out of his way to assist guests, even offering refunds when issues arise. The site is praised for its peaceful and quiet atmosphere, with beautiful countryside views, wildlife such as red kites and rabbits, and dark night skies perfect for stargazing. Campfires are allowed, adding to the rustic appeal, and there is a pub within a short walking distance, offering convenient dining options. However, the facilities are a common point of criticism: the main toilet and shower block is often described as basic, run-down, and located far from the camping field, with only two showers for the entire site. To compensate, portaloos are placed around the field, but their cleanliness is inconsistent, with some guests finding them smelly or dirty. A nearby train line causes noise, though many guests report getting used to it or not being bothered. The entrance through a storage yard for caravans and motorhomes is considered off-putting by some. The site is dog-friendly and allows BBQs, and there is a children's play area adjacent. Overall, this is a no-frills campsite valued for its space, relaxed rules, and friendly host, but guests should expect basic sanitation and potential train noise. Recent reviews highlight that the facilities are overpriced and in poor condition, with no showers available and toilets often unclean. The electrical supply is reported as low voltage, causing appliances to fail. The site is described as more of a storage yard than a proper campsite, and flooding can occur, forcing campers onto hardstanding pitches with little space. Despite some peacefulness in off-season, the high cost for basic services is a recurring issue. Train noise is mentioned but not considered intrusive. Overall, the value for money is poor, with outdated or inadequate facilities.
