 Nice site but crowded the day we were there (bank holiday weekend). Can be difficult to get in the free car park and the pay and display is £5.50 per 24 hours.

Quite a struggle humping kit up from the car to the pitch, so don't go too far away from the gate if you've tons of stuff!

Facilities basic and approaching grotty - could really do with renovating. Take 50p pieces to use the shower.

And the farm ice-cream is definitely to die for.

Reviewer: The Eccentrics 4 reviews from this member

 A Fantastic Location! Great Views. Quiet, BASIC site. Tents only, no electric hooks or waste disposal. Access difficult, small gated car park then walk across short wooden bridge over fast flowing (ideal for cooling beer) stream. Long thin site, very hilly but plenty of level(ish) areas. Sheep roam here. Best keep your boots on.
Stone built toilet/shower block adequate though basic,  may be busy at peak times. Only 1 (we saw) fresh water tap by shower block.
 
Very popular with walkers and cyclists. Big Hills, Tranquil Lakes. Village pubs both very good, 200 yards from camp, though the Theakston's Old Peculier was better in the Bridge Hotel.
Site owner very friendly and chatty old fellow.
Gorgeous  local ice-cream and, if you ask the right people, FRESH UN-pasteurised milk, out of a cow, into a jug. Mmm Creamy!
A great site to explore from, but not really suited to a family break.

 A great location, plenty of walks from the site. Quite basic facilities but clean enough. It was quiet when I visited but that was midweek.
 
A minutes walk to two very good pubs, one of which offers cooked breakfasts.
 
I will certainly go again.
