    Some noise. The owner is very responsive and helped.

    The tent was so beautiful. The bed was comfortable and there was a clothes rail, kettle with tea coffee, sugar and milk, a heater which made it cosy. A lamp. There is a table and chairs and bbq out on the decking. Toilets a short walk away. They were clean.

    There is no hot water in the toilet block. Distance to the shower block - I ended up driving to the shower! Only hot water in the shower - odd for cleaning my teeth.

    . Comfortable, clean, and well presented. Parking is good. Power supply is useful with kettle and bedside light. Proximity to toilets was good and they were clean.

    Quite a later check in at 3pm. Kettle needed cleaning, had bits in. Noise until after 11pm from the adjacent camp. Toilet roll ran out on Sunday. We saw no staff on site.

    Great that you could stay for just one night as most other stays like this only offer 2 nights min. The facilities were good and we enjoyed our stay.

    Poor instructions and lack of signage to find allocated tent. I.e. all tents were only numbered but on our info we was told safari lodge tent 1, so this is what we were looking for. And our allocated parking spot sign had been knocked down into long grass so we was unable to find this easily. Also no staff to be found.

    The tent and toilet facilities were beautiful. Not having to check in was convenient. The site was well maintained.

    The tents were fab! With all the small little details included, perfect for our short stay. The beds were amazingly comfortable 😍 We slept like babies. Really love the concept and could see us getting together as a few families for a nice long weekend. Highly recommended. And of course so close to the inflatable water park!

    We had some noisy neighbours. One right next to us who were sat at a BBQ which was right next to where our bed was. The other was a bit further down but they were super noisy after the 10:30pm curfew, to the point where I had to phone and emergency number and get someone down to tell them to shush… ruined our last night to be honest!

    The tent was superb and very comfortable. The owners take great pride in making each of their tents feel like a home away from home.

    Showers a little way away from the tents pitch. But the toilet block with sink was appreciated and clean and tidy.

    Overall location and the size and space of the accommodation perfect. And ideal for the National Water Country Park and the outlaw triathlon event we were attending with the whole family of all ages.

    Lovely Well maintained site. Toilets/showers could be better. Bell tents great. Toilets miles away.

    Marketing suggests you can park alongside your bell tent but you can't. Also, considering the Bell Tent indicates a little "luxury" step up from camping with your own equipment (and it is) to then have it so far away from the toilet/shower block (about 200 metres) makes no sense. This did not equate to £169 price point for one night. Even a dedicated portaloo per tent would help. Could also do with a small lamp in each of the rooms in the tent.

    Bell tents were a treat (after camping in a tent for 5 weeks in Spain). Lovely site in a great location. Quaint shop/reception.

    Whilst the showers were nice and hot, the toilet and shower facilities were fine but could have been cleaner.

    Great stay at the Apartment Bell Tent everyone in the party was really impressed with the tent itself and was really nice to have the tent set away slightly for its own area for some outdoor space too

    The woman who worked in the shop on the main campsite was extremely rude. As soon as she knew we were from the glamping area, she refused to look as us when we spoke. She said she couldn’t help us because she wasn’t part of the glamping area. She didn’t even wait for us to ask the question! We only wanted to know if they sold fire lighters.

    Owner provided detailed information and instructions. It was all clean and the group campfire had a wonderful homely feel.

    The only thing that let down the accommodation is the awful shower block and is the reason for my low score on facilities. There were four of us stying for 2 nights and decided not to use the minging showers.

    The tents and beds themselves were excellent.

    The information for the site clearly stated that no dogs were allowed. There were lots of dogs on site and we stumbled across numerous amounts of dog mess around our tent. It really took the shine off what had been an excellent experience.

    great tent, kids loved the tent and play park. very easy to book in and good value for money
