Simply heaven - like CLs used to be
A lovely large well-mown field, peace and quiet and lovely views of the neighbouring church spire - with the added bonus of a spotlessly clean toilet. This is how I remember CLs when I was little, when you didn't need to book, you'd just turn up and pitch up in the farmer's field - but usually then there was no toilet!
We met and stayed here with 4 outfits as a family to celebrate my sister's birthday. The owners couldn't have been more helpful. As the festivities needed to be kept outside they lent us gazebos in case the weather turned (but luckily we had wall to wall sunshine)
We took a walk to neighbouring Lympsham where there was a fete and classic car show. There is also a lovely walk to Brent Knoll.
Although there is no hook up (what do you expect for £5/night?!) the owners offered to run an extension cable from the house if we needed it (but we didn't - we just went back to the simple life of running everything of gas and battery - it certainly made packing a lot easier!)
It was the perfect place to reunite our family for this special occasion. Thanks Dene Hollow!
PS You can safely ignore the previous poor review. The elderly owner had fallen and was unable to mow the field at the time of the other review. Her family now live on site and help run the CL - and very well too! Perfect if you want to get back to some traditional caravanning.
