Great CL

Our first visit to Newton Grove and we will definitely return when we are next in the area. A beautifully maintained spacious site with plenty of room available for pitching. The off grid caused us no problems, but as previous reviewers have mentioned there is a portable solar battery unit on site should you need it. There is lots of information on site, and the email with arrival details and all the current Covid safety guidelines is helpful and informative. Lots of lovely walks from the site which is great with the dog, and a good pub within walking distance which serves great food. Thanks to John for a good stay.

excellent CL

lovely site, grass better than some lawns, slightly sloping but ample blocks provided and because of slope drains well we were on hardstanding in motorhome but would have been confident on grass. We were several days and did not miss EHU though owner provides solar panel if required. The waste disposal is at the top of the field and is very well designed and easy to use. Picnic tables and fire pits a nice touch for balmy evenings. John santises taps etc on a daily basis

Great off grid CL

Large field with 2 hardstandings. Slightly sloping. All facilities well labelled and maintained including 2 portable solar panel battery chargers, one fitted with an inverter for charging small 240v AC items. Top and bottom of field have short dog walks through woodland. Recommended!

A completely different take on Off-Grid

Firstly just for full disclosure I did not stay at Newton Grove but did get to visit and take a good look around so that I could film a video of the site for my YouTube Channel. (Free of charge no money changed hands :-) ) Newton Grove is certainly a really well maintained site and John, the owner of the site, has obviously put a lot of effort into all the little details everything from clear signage all the way to providing benches and fire pits. What to me is most impressive is how he has gone to the trouble of actually providing solar panels for those that want to stay at an off-grid site but do not have their own solar, very inspirational. Anyway here's the video link which does a better job of describing the site than I can. https://youtu.be/oOM7eX_0d_w

Delightful stay

As other reviewers have said, this is a very special place. John is very organised and provides excellent communication and information before arrival, a warm welcome and a very well maintained site with immaculate facilities. We really didn't miss the electric hook up. We enjoyed exploring the local village, especially the quaint little garden plant sales " just plants " There is good walking from the site and plenty of interesting on a short drive away. We will certainly be back !

Faultless, peaceful and spacious site.

Received arrival information from site owner a couple of days before arrival which was full of useful information. After accessing the easy to find site we were greeted by the site owner. Immediately noticed that the site was well maintained and cared for. Lovely large area and spaced out pitches. A welcome pack available and an information hut packed full of anything you should need to know and more. Clearly going above and beyond to ensure fully Covid compliant for their guests safety. Located in a really nice village with places for walking the dogs and a village pub only a short walk away. We had a very enjoyable and peaceful stay. We couldn't fault it at all and will be returning.

Perfect getaway off grid would love my garden to look as good as this site

Second visit it was worth the travelling time over two hundred miles away Stop over August bank holiday weekend and loved it even after a nightmare start I arrived with a major fuel leak and only realised at the gate and just to make it much worse it failed to put my handbrake on full when I reversed into my pre booked pitch. As a result my rear axles rolled over the edge and when I tried to pull forward I just dug a big hole in the gravel. What can I say when John turned up he was very understanding and gave me all the help I needed to get me back on the pitch. Even after I had made a mess of his perfectly present pitch he just cleaned my mess up and went out of his way to help me solve my fuel leak without any signs of irritation. That is something to be admired as this allowed me to really make the most of my peaceful weekend with my young grandchildren. This site has two hard standing pitches number two is perfect for kids very large pitch with picnic table and wooded area to one side so allowing them to play means it’s so much easier to track them. Please note within 5 minutes walk the village has a immaculate kept children’s play area in the centre of a stunning village with very friendly residents. Over all if you like off grid type of site with big spaces between pitches it worth a visit I will not hesitate in going back soon and recommend it to anyone who wants a peaceful break

Second visit and it keeps getting better

Just returned from our second trip to Newton Grove and enjoyed it even more. Six days off-grid caravanning worked perfectly. Lots to see and do in the area but we actually enjoyed just chilling and enjoying a life less hectic. Thanks to John for the fantastic condition the site is kept in, see you next year

Idyllic

We received such a warm welcome by John to his immaculately clean and spacious site. The information board and the welcome pack we were given gave us all the information we could have needed . The site is so quiet and peaceful and surrounded by wonderful countryside with masses of walking opportunities, our dogs loved it. There are solar battery recharging facilities as it is off grid and in our opinion a total gem of a site. We will return!
