 This is a wonderful site staffed by helpful friendly people. The site is divided into two halves, the landscaped section with immaculate driveways and hard standing placements, and in the other half its just a good old camping field, with plenty of hook ups.
We chose the camping field and could select our own preferred pitch. Pitches are numbered but there are no divisions in between units.
The toilet / shower facilities are spotless and the shower cubicles spacious with no risk of soaking your own clothes, plenty of hooks and continuous hot water at no extra charge.
Due to the lovely sunshine, my family enjoyed swimming in the lake, and there are some lovely walks in the hills around the site.
We enjoyed coffee and cakes from the on site part time cafe and another excellent service was the site shop being open 24 hrs and items paid for either by the honesty box, or card payment to reception next morning.
Another amazing feature of this site was to experience "the sound of silence" even in the day time.
Although no play area for kids, there was no need. It was great to see family groups playing good old rounders in the camping field, (like we did as kids) it was large enough to ensure no risk of balls hitting tents or caravans.
We loved this site and will definitely return

What an amazing site! Choose your own generous pitch, explore the 500 acre farm, swim, canoe, paddle board in the beautiful lake, fish in the pond, use the 24 hour 'honesty' shop.
On site cafe, excellent toilet/shower facilities, very helpful staff, what more can I say?
Book it and enjoy!

Absolutely gorgeous setting and well run/maintained site. Mostly level pitches, many with ehu.
No designated pitch so there is a tendency for larger groups to mix in among the couples and families, mostly this isn't a problem however there was one large family compound that could be heard over everyone else, often after the noise curfew. T
Here are plenty of walks around the campsite and a small lake on site that you are free to swim/sup/kayak on. Amenities were cleaned regularly and there was always plenty of hot water.
Never got to use the on site cafe as there was no non-dairy milk option available, not helpful for a vegan/lactose intolerant couple.
All in all we thoroughly enjoyed our stay and are looking forward to returning in the future.

Absolutely stunning location, great facilities included a fishing lake. Definitely great for teenagers due to the 4G mast they have sited on the hill.
Good size pitches and it was great to be able to use firepits. Very friendly owners and ii you see the lamb burgers or chops in the shop buy some, best we've ever had and sourced locally.
Would definitely recommend this site.
My only negative is the showers turn off far too quickly (10secs maybe) so you are continuously pressing the button. They are lovely and hot though.

Wow, what an amazing place! The pictures and information given on its web site give an accurate representation of the site - except it's even better!
After booking on-line we paid a deposit and then the balance shortly before arrival - we were pleasantly surprised by the nightly reduction in pitch fees for over 65 year olds! We had several helpful emails before arrival, and on arrival we were met by a friendly lady who asked what our pitch preferences were and then showed us a couple of pitches, one of which was ideal!
We were fortunate to have mainly good weather and there were not many others on site when we stayed at the end of September, but we were blown away by the surroundings, the lay-out and organisation, the facilities, the peace and quiet and the ethos of the site.
When needing a site in the area we chose this one from the reviews on here, so a big thank you to all reviewers.
This was our first visit, but we are already planning our next!

Excellent in every way. We took our grandson away for the first time. He loved running around. Very family friendly. Shop was well stocked. Clean and convenient facilities.
Plenty to do without taking the van off site. Would recommend to friends and family.

Love love LOVE this site. So much so, that even though Storm Francis had ripped off the extension to our tent (thankyou to the lovely people in the next tent who helped rescue me there!), we stayed an extra night.
Site is lovely and peaceful, with good places for the kids to cycle around site / play on the rope swing / explore the streams etc.
Honesty shop / pizza on site etc all really good, as is walking in the hills above the site. Storm Francis stopped us going out exploring on the bikes as much as we'd normally do, but we had fun nonetheless.
Showers/toilets etc are excellent.
Fire pits can be hired and wood purchased on site, too.
It is pricey, but we're going back.

Beautiful camp site, very clean amenities and very friendly owners.
The boat lake, fishing pond and mountain walks make it a lovely place to relax. There is a pub about 1 Mile away.
On site you have a shop, cafe/bar and free to use kayaks and canoes for the lake.
Highly recommend this site to all ages.

We've stayed at FF a few times now, but I thought it was time to give an updated review.
We do enjoy coming to this place, gives us a chance to some well needed R&R whilst knowing the facilities will be great. We love the fact there are walks around the site- looking down on the camp is lovely as is the swimming lake. Camp fires are encouraged but the best thing is that we know we will get a good nights sleep- camp quiet is asked for at 10:30pm and it's generally needed after all the open air!
The facilities are pretty much perfect- big showers and clean loos, covered washing up, fridges and freezers, washer/dryer (that's much easier to use now), drying room, shop, cafe. There's lockers for phones if you haven't got EHU and you can hire canoes as well for a donation to a local cause. In holiday times there are regular pizza nights (which are gorgeous) and paddleboarding lessons- but you have to book ahead for these.
The pitches are great, all enormous and you get a reasonable choice, plus logistics allowing, you can camp with friends/family. None of the pitches are especially far from the central facilities courtyard. I love the all weather pitches as your groundsheet is clean no matter what the weather and you still get a bit patch of grass for chairs etc.
We've stayed in both May and August, and think we generally prefer May as it feels less busy than August. I did like the longer cafe opening hours in August and the fact the lake was warmer though! We did find quite a few queues for the showers this time around- it felt perhaps a little overcrowded for us. It was also the most expensive UK campsite we stayed at this year- at the top end really for our budget.
But, overall the positives still outweigh the few niggly negatives, and we have many great memories.

We stayed here with a group of friends and we had the most amazing time. The weather was amazing and so swimming in the lake was all we wanted to do.
The site has the perfect blend of being well controlled and orderly but also relaxed and friendly to make it a really stress free and relaxing camp.
We are booked back in for next summer and really looking forward to it - and praying the weather is as good. The local pub (the Hundred House Inn) is also really good and the family who run it work really hard to provide good food and beer.
There is also a footpath to the pub from the campsite.

Yet again a fantastic stay at FF our go to campsite from home (Hereford) Great pitch (31) with the sun shining from dawn till dusk.
The facilities are spot on. (So many other camping sites can learn from FF what makes a campsite great) they have thought of just about everything; gas exchange, BBQ disposal, fire pits with ground protectors, RE-CYCLING buckets for every pitch.
Excellent café/bar at high season & w/e's plus Pizza etc. Good range of milk, juice, cream, sausages eggs etc at reception. Good pitch rotation to protect the grass.
Two lakes, one for fishing and the other for fun. Canoes free to use (Deposit required) Our dog just loves the place.

Fabulous setting, well maintained, large pitches. We arrived on a Saturday to a very warm welcome and invited to choose our own pitch. It was very busy with families enjoying the kayaks on the lake - if you want to be more peaceful, choose a pitch away from the lake!
The whole campsite became much quieter by Sunday afternoon when the families left. Lovely little café in the courtyard open over the weekend. Very good facilities, spotlessly clean. Huge amount of walks around the campsite, fantastic views from up on the hill.
Walk from the campsite to the local pub, didn't quite make it that far because of the weather, but walk through the woods was lovely. Really enjoyed our stay, will be returning!
