Disappointing

We had high expectations of this site and were disappointed for several reasons. Didn't find the owner particularly friendly. Not as picturesque as the pictures would have you believe. Described as dog friendly but the lambs in the field were constantly coming into the area where you pitch which isn't helpful if you have a dog. There was also dog poo in the field in several places. Pointed out to owner who did nothing. Noisy farm machinery at 5.45 one morning. We knew it was a working farm so some noise is to be expected but wasn't expecting this level at this time. Suffice it to say, we wouldn't stay again.

No pleasing some people. Clearly states it's a working farm so you should expect to hear activity early in the morning and encounter farm animals. Might also find the site owners more welcoming & helpful if you approach them in a polite and cheerful manner!

We all like too think that our pets are perfect but If you have a dog/dogs and choose to stay on a working livestock farm you really need to be very sure that you have full control of them, that they are comfortable meeting farm animals and represent no threat.

This said, we're country folk with a couple of (sociable & fairly well trained) Border Collies that like an early morning walk. We're used to getting up around 5.30 in the morning, have no problems with the cock crowing or a tractor working the fields - or the usual farmyard smells.

Good luck finding those idyllic rural sites with the picturesque views - there are plenty out there!
