Friendly welcome on arrival. Enough space between pitches. Spare shared picnic bench was very useful.Separate dog run and exceptionally clean facilities were fabulous.We found great local countryside walks with the dogs (kept on leads). Lots of other dogs all calm & happy.Mulberry cafe in Cropredy also made the stay great for us accommodating dairy & gluten free all day breakfast easily.24 hours away testing out a new tent felt like a 3 day break away.

Top class. First time here but certainly won't be the last. It's family run,and it shows. Grounds,toilet/shower block are all so well managed.Well sign posted. Dogs on leads but there is also a dedicated " dog field" where they can have a run.Excellent value for money. It's not a huge commercial set up ( thankfully) so book first !

We arrived here after being unable to continue our stay at another very local campsite due to health and safety risks and I wish we had been here from the start of our holiday.The gentleman running the site, David, is beyond kind, helpful and can't do enough for his guests. We were given a full site tour, shown where all the facilities were and offered any pitch that took our liking.There are large pitches, EHU, services pitches for caravans, enclosed dog exercise area, children's playground, laundry etc.We will definitely be back!

Site as good as ever, just a shame the new owners didn't honour the price of when we booked, last oct/nov. No communication about the price increase until our arrival. Very disappointed.
