General Comments

Set in a picturesque valley, Cloud farm has both good points and bad. The worst being their facilities. Even though they were only built last year, the toilet facilities were below standard, with only one shower, two toilets and two sinks in the ladies, and just the one sink in the men's, positioned next to the toilet. There are three fields to this campsite, and there should really be a toilet block in each. campers don't mind spending a couple of pounds per night more if the facilities are both clean and plentiful. You had to pay to use the impractical shower, which only lasted six minutes, and you also had to pay to use the hairdryer!
The shop wasn't great either, charging £5 for a bag of logs and there were too few camping essentials on offer... such as meths.
I imagine camping on this site with a few children to take care of as well is a nightmare for parents!

    Can't say that I agree with you. They are really careful to limit the number of campers on the site at any one time so I don't feel that there is ever undue pressure on the facilities. I personally am very glad that they've kept it small and basic. It feels like a proper campsite rather than some sanitised touring park - and yes I've taken children and its been great.

    Must say I totally agree with fayk. This review seems a little unfair and over critical!

    Fantastic location and lovely setting. Kids played in river and we are rode the horses. Toilets very dirty and wouldn't fancy a shower here. Riding expensive and stable yard not too clean. Great if you want a totally 'organic style' camp site.
