We had a wonderful stay in Jonathan's land. He is very welcoming and helpful.
From the camp, we had beautiful views of the river and felt truly immersed in nature, surrounded by the silence.
A compost toilet and a cute and spacious shower in a horse box were all the services we needed to make our stay comfortable.
We would love to go back one day!

We loved this site. What a hidden gem! Beautiful views, grass was well kept and comfy, toilets and showers easily accessible as well as pot wash station and water if needed. Facilities extremely clean. Large fire pit close by as well as wood sold on site if needed.
Gorgeous lake just a minute walk away and really loved being able to wake up next to the sheep!
Hosts were so friendly and welcoming. They supplied a map and were on site to help with anything we needed.
I really like how the pitches are designed and they are very flat.
Super peaceful and can only hear the sounds of the birds and the sheep, which was idyllic.
Thanks again and sorry for overstaying! We misread the check out time :)

Hideaway camping was a wonderful stay. So many interesting corners to explore. Campsites were spread out around a big field with plenty of spots to choose from. Toilets were clean and a sink was provided for washing up. For meals there were plenty of picnic tables and an undercover area. It truly was peaceful being there.
