Date of Visit: May 2024  Confirmed Booking Unit:  Tent
Nights stayed: 3 Travelling as:  Mature couple
Reviewer: Janisj 1 review from this member

 A back to basics campsite with minimal facilities, just composting toilets and fresh water on tap.

However, we were perfectly happy with this for a few days and the site is in a stunning location, with panoramic views of the Debyshire hills.

The owners and staff were very friendly and relaxed, leaving you to pick your preferred pitch, and providing fire pits free of charge.

Organic meat/eggs and logs are available to buy at a reasonable cost. In addition, there is a great pub within 15 mins walking distance that serves delicious food.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay chilling in an unspoilt meadow on a working farm with very friendly/cute lambs for company.

It is great to find a proper campsite.

 We stayed in Bluebell Willow yurt. The yurt has real potential, beautiful views which were slightly marred by the numerous derelict caravans in view in the field.

The kitchenette was well equipped on the whole (although lacked a basic vegetable knife to cook/cut with).

Communication prior to our visit was excellent but not during.

We found the beds quite uncomfortable. The single camping bed is not on flat ground which meant that the children rolled out at night.

We booked the yurt as we were interested in touring the farm but this proved difficult to arrange despite emailing about it prior to our stay - we were finally able to have a tour on the day of our departure (which was great).

We were also unfortunate enough to experience an earwig infestation in the yurt when hundreds of earwigs emerged inside the yurt at nighttime. After our stay we were told that they could have helped us had they known but it was incredibly difficult to gain a response from them during our stay.

Reviewer: Crimperman 5 reviews from this member

 Great site, out of the way and good facilities which are kept clean although they are a little far between them. That's not too much of an issue but it's worth mentioning.

It's a big site with lots of room but you usually end up sharing a field and it can be a bit less quieter. We prefer a bit more solitude and so were delighted when they offered to put us in the Quarry field on our own when it turned out a Scout group would be sharing our field (nothing against Scouts - have been a leader but they are less than quiet :D ).

The quarry field was gorgeous and perfect. We tried the local farm produce and did some walking in the local area.

One of our best camps for a while I'd say.

Reviewer: Thedag 1 review from this member

 This is a lovely place with fabulous views.

There are things that bothered me that might not bother you.

* didn't speak to the hosts other than a brief phone call on arrival which meant we weren't sure about the water supply abd its potaability

*there really are NO facilities apart from port-a-loos and an earth closet

* There's a fine line between free and easy and scruffy. I would have liked someone to have litter picked the field; not loads if rubbish but a lot if bits that made you feel closer to people ( in a bad way) than you expected when you hadn't seen a soul.

I'd go again but knowing what I know and with very clear expectations.

Reviewer: Cuhans 1 review from this member

 We love this place. It is so laid back and the back-to-basics (compost toilet, running cold water) camping make it a world away from daily life for us.

Jill, Bob and the team are so friendly and give a great insight into farming life - it's great being so close to the chickens, ducks, sheep and horses.

Stunning views of the surrounding area from the top of the hill where we camped.

Reviewer: Harry Johnson 1 review from this member

 First time we have used the van for an overnight stop.

Camp appeared very basic with compost toilets which we didn't use. Made use of our own in the van.

Bought produce from the farm but disappointed to find bacon and sausages were frozen and expensive.

Eggs appeared to be freshly laid.
