Small Private Sites

If anyone is down near Hay on Wye there is a site that we were recommended but haven't got to yet. A reliable source as well.

It is on a static cite but has Serviced Pitches, about 10 of the 20 and appears to be a well managed site. Prices start from £18pn in low season.

What a beautiful looking site. One for us to consider.😁

That takes me back! We stayed there years ago in our tent camping days. Lovely site near the Golden Valley. There used to be a restaurant right next door too. I think the only downside for us was that there was no walking direct from the site. Nice to be reminded of it though! 

Another Yorkshire gem. We first stayed here some 35 years ago. Decided to have a couple of nights break, our first choice a small CL and private site was fully booked, so I took a look at this to see how prices compared. Just what we fancy, two nights with hook up comes in at £44, that’s with showers as well. The same two nights at the Bridlington Club Site would have cost us over £71.00. Interestingly, Thorpe Hall does no hook up pitches at £17 per night at this time of year. Will report back after our stay😁

I mentioned a small Exmoor camp site on another thread, it's a farm site in a beautiful setting with lots of walking on the doorstep (Winsford Hill and the Punchbowl is a famous walk with good Exmoor views.) There's the thatched Royal Oak Inn down in the village and up on the top is the famous Cara(c)tacus Stone. We stayed at this site a few years ago and it's still a popular spot for people who like Exmoor.

I like the look of that site Brue. We're hoping to get a tour together for the South West sometime in the next couple of years and I'll keep that site in mind.

I have emailed The Croft at Warden Law to find out if it is closed, still no response. I really do hope not, the owners had invested a lot of money in the place. 

It looks like the pitches might well be sloping. Would ordinary ‘wedges’ suffice?

We are happily pitched up on the site I mentioned above, Thorpe Hall. Thirty six years since we last visited, very very nice and a wonderful welcome is our first impression. It’s fairly busy, but peaceful, lots of folks sat outside having a nice time in sunshine. Nice little reception with a very well stocked shop. We are on a close mown grass pitch, solid as a rock under wheel and absolutely level. 

Burton Agnes for us tomorrow, only three mile away, a short hop.😁

That looks a very nice site brue, one for us to recall, could have done with knowing about it last year on our SW tour.😁
