Review of Middle Woodbatch Farm

Campsite name: 

This is a superb camp site... We found this in the cool camping guide 2 years ago and have been back many times. Steve and Mary are the freindliest hosts, infact over the time we've spent there we become good freinds. We look forward to going back to see them, year on year.
The facilities are amazingly clean and ideal for families. Two Big shower rooms, with warm flooring, benches and fresh flowers. The site only allows 10 pitches, so the bathrooms are never too busy. We have taken our 2 children here since babes in arms. Our 3 year old loves it here and cries and screams if we have to leave the farm and gets very upset when we have to go home.
Its a working farm, so you get to see real farm life. Children love the chickens, Molly the horse, Piggy, lambs, sheep, cows and calves. Infact spring time is the best time to go, lots of lambing to see and little white lambys bouncing around the feilds.
Theres no play area, no swings..but you dont need it. Plenty of space for the children to kick a ball, play games. Go for walks up the lane, bat spotting at dusk...fantastic place for children.
Bishops castle is just over a mile back down the lane. There you will find some of the best pubs. The Three Tuns is a micro brewery, definately taste the XXX beer. Food here is also very good. The castle hotel has a lovely beer garden around the back, ideal if you have little ones. The 6 bells is a lovely local pub that serves delicious food also and fab beer.
There are plenty of shops here to buy your supplies, coop, deli, butchers...you'll not really need to leave town.
We have been here so many times now and are never disappointed. One of the best camp sites.... enjoy campers!!!
