Flatness of pitches: * (most pitches are slopey)

Other facilities:  * (can now leave your rubbish, there are plenty of water taps, but sometimes the supply is tempermental, be sure to bring containers to fill up)

Public transport: * (Need a car)

Comments:    A very attractive site, with lots of trees and wildlife (lots of birds, grasshoppers & butterflies – and we even saw a family of weasels). The undulating site is part of what makes it attractive – but be warned, both goats now have had experience of getting vehicles stuck, tyres spinning trying to get up the hills!
