Testimonials

I wouldn't change a thing!

I just got back from the festival, and it was amazing.
Every single member of staff that we interacted with over the 3 days, we were an absolute credit to the place.

Having been before for the day, we thought we knew what to expect, but those expectations were massively exceeded.

Everything was excellent: the events, the timings, the entertainment, the camping facilities.

There was nothing I could even begin to think of grumbling about.

The place was packed, and the staff rushed off their feet, but they were always lovely, always had time, and were great with the kids.

Had the pleasure to speak to the owners, who were so down to earth and approachable (they had been scrubbing pots in the back to help out)

It's a great family-run place that we love to visit.
