Very disappointing site, read reviews before booking

From arrival to leaving, this site was a disappointment. Information said to check in with reception but despite numerous visits to office and many phone calls, no one was around and no information on pitch location.

Not relaxing

The site was a little unkempt with a farmyard feel. The donkeys were to be honest a nuisance and we had to retreat into our motorhome to eat because they were very assertive. Maybe they are not usually like that. We didn't experience the alpacas, as they were not... Show more

Disappointing

Booked here in mid-September for seven nights and stayed one. Site was overbooked and we had to pitch on a piece of rough ground at the top of the site. We looked at the pitches and found them small and ill kept. No room for caravan, awning and car. Facilities... Show more

A real gem of a place

We stayed here for 4 nights in our caravan. We truly had a great time. The donkeys are so friendly. They do love the attention.😊 The Alpaca's are a little shy, but they began to trust us. Not aggressive in anyway. The owners are also very friendly and welcoming, they advised us on... Show more

Far From The Madding Crowds

This site offers a very peaceful and relaxing experience, which it delivers easily. We cannot remember the last time we were so relaxed and refreshed by a 3-night stay. The facilities are simple, but in very good condition and we had no complaints. There is a hot tub on site... Show more

Good location but some room for improvement.

Good location for access to the Hartland Peninsula, and very sheltered sites which was good as it was windy during my three night stay (price now actually £24 pn). Pitches are hard standing but relatively small - access to EHU up a few steps behind and water close by. ... Show more

Beautiful and could be wonderful

We have just stayed here for 7 nights. Easy to find with the directions sent. Upon arrival an information sheet would be good detailing local shops and opening hours, pubs, good places to eat and their telephone numbers. Doctors for emergencies and local vets. Pitch was ok but small and... Show more
