    Booked a weekend away for our wedding anniversary, and wanted somewhere quiet to relax and reboot and what can be better than waking up, stepping outside to fresh air, green grass, horses and alpacas. The glamping lodges are excellent, well designed inside and out with everything you need. Breakfast hampers were perfect with good quality products. Would definitely recommend and would definitely return.

    We had an absolutely outstanding vacation! The glamping pod was beautiful and well kitted out with everything we could ask for. The alpacas were fun to watch and we even enjoyed the plane spotting! The breakfast hamper was well worth it and we appreciated the attention to detail. A lovely, peaceful ambience surrounds the place and left us feeling very relaxed and refreshed. We can’t wait to return for a longer stay.

    Myself and my wife booked a last minute stay at one of the Glamping pods on site for the bank holiday weekend. This was an absolute bargain and when we arrived we was amazed at the quality,size and cleanliness of the Glamping Pod and not only was we amazed at that but also the calm peaceful surroundings of the campsite grounds (there is also a great view from the front door of the pod). Inside the pod there is all the utensils and equipment that you will need for your stay, you can also purchase wood from the Main Reception for the BBQ/Firepit which we used to sit around at night. Behind the pods are where the camps alpacas are which we went to greet on a couple of occasions. This is a ideal place for a peaceful trip away with plenty of walks to take, local shops and town and there is also a farm nearby that has wollabies, Llamas and many other animals which is a great day out and is all within walking distance! We will definitely be returning for another trip away!

    2nd time for us in the motor home. Just a 2 night stay but didn’t want to leave. Lovely little chilled place with nice little village that has everything. Booked and then had to change for the following weekend but no hassle - Brendon sorted it after an email. Noise from planes one of days but didn’t bother us at all. Loved it will definitely back soon!

    Disappointing! After being told the alpaca farm was open to the public we went along for a visit as we were in the area for a friends wedding. Met by who I’m assuming is Brendon the owner who was quite abrupt stating the alpaca farm was for guests only. So just a heads up don’t visit as this isn’t your usual farm. Missing a trick really could be earning money by charging an admission fee to visit the alpacas.
