What a lovely camp site, tidy flat pitches. Ours was fully serviced. Staff are super friendly. Toilets and showers are clean and tidy. Washing up area again clean and tidy. Campsite is keeps clean and looking good. Pub and tea room within walking distance. Staff on hand during the day or an emergency phone number out of hours. If they are needed. Lovely area and the weather when we were there was perfect.
10/10
It was a lovely campsite, very clean everywhere. The husband and wife team that ran the site were so friendly and helpful, which was really nice because normally on other campsites you don’t see anyone until you have a problem. I would definitely recommend the old post office campsite.

Jen and her husband were absolutely brilliant from start to finish. The customer service was second to none, and they went above and beyond to accommodate us and support what we were doing with our mental health awareness challenge.
They even kindly donated towards the cause, which was incredible and says everything about the type of people they are.
The campsite itself was beautiful, with a lovely little stream opposite us and a really peaceful setting. The bridge inn nearby was also fantastic — the staff were great, the food was 10/10, and having the football on was a massive bonus.
Couldn’t recommend this place highly enough. Great people, great location, great atmosphere. We’ll definitely be back.
