Great location, lovely site, brilliant for dogs (and people!)
We were booked for 3 nights and ended up staying for 5, we were having such a good time even in the snow and temperatures that reached minus 3! Very friendly and helpful staff, always happy to offer a smile and a quick word. Ideally placed for the most fabulous walks which go directly from the site. We used the OS application and you could follow any number of walks which are as hard or easy as you would like, all well signposted. Lots of sheep so dog often on lead but also many fields with no livestock and up in the hills mainly empty.
The village is lovely - friendly pubs (we tried three) and all the basics that you would need. The waterfall at the Green Dragon is probably over-priced at £4 a head but worth a visit and is very well maintained. The Simonstone Hotel was a great stop off point for lunch - wonderful views, lovely staff and definitely worth a drop in.
The site is clean and well maintained - slight niggle is only one facilities block which depending on where you are pitched may be inconvenient. The dog walking field is huge and accessible - one of the best we have seen, with lots of fast rabbits to keep the dog on his toes! (and no, he never got close!)
All in a brilliant plan and we will definitely return!
