Lovely little site. Will definitely return
Great little CL in lovely countryside. Very well kept, with mown grass and horses in next field. Nice walk from the site and good dog-friendly pub a short walk away. Our first visit but will definitely return. Thanks for the cake Jane!

Who needs hook-up when you’ve got a solar panel on the roof? We even watched a bit of telly. Margaret Thatcher’s phrase: ‘Let them eat cake!’ took on a new meaning. Nice grassed site with views and a ten minute walk through the village, passing thatched cottages, to the Bull’s... Show more
