Beech Estate Campsite

Tyckte om Great site with good well maintained facilities. Very welcoming reception staff, friendly and helpful.
The site is scenic and pitches are well built and spaced.
It can be a very peaceful and quiet escape provided the rules are followed by all. These rules include no music and quiet after 10.00pm. We liked the rules.

Tyckte inte om The site rules were being ignored by some. Unfortunately, there was a group playing loud music until after midnight on Saturday. This group were located on T1 pitch, so know who they were and should be banned from coming back.
There was also a problem with noise from the road. This was beyond the site’s control and related to motorcycles and vehicles driving at excessive speeds with loud exhausts heading to the coast. These apparently are regular problems.

Tyckte om Stayed here for one night 13th August. Booked last minute and so glad we did. Great location. So peaceful and relaxing. Lots of trees and nature. Ideal place to switch off from life. Includes a hammock too. Bucket showers are great. Toilets clean. Picnic bench. Comfortable beds. Everywhere clean and well looked after. Cool box and gas hob provided (usually a bbq but fires banned currently due to heat). Lovely walk in the forest. Staff very friendly and helpful. Not much signal but I liked that. Wheelbarrows to take belongings to pitch/tent. Can walk to the local pub The squirrel Inn through the woods.

Tyckte inte om The only thing I didnt like is having to provide our bedding , it'd be perfect if that was included.

Tyckte om The facilities were clean and well maintained, with plenty of sinks and space for everyone. The bucket showers were great, and a big hit with our 5 year old. The hammock next to the tent was also a lovely touch, and we really enjoyed chilling out in it (and bat-spotting in it at twilight!).

Tyckte inte om We were given a bell tent pitch that was right next to the car park, so we could see the cars through the trees (and heard several car alarms going off). Understand that they need to fit as many pitches in as possible, and it's a busy August week with a campsite that's probably at capacity, but none of the pictures or language on the website indicated that this might be a possibility. It was a bit of a disappointment, as we were hoping for a more secluded woodland experience. If you're looking for a cosy, magical campsite then probably best to avoid, as the whole atmosphere is quite businesslike and wipe-clean.

Från föreståndaren: Hi Astrid,

Thank you for your review. We pride ourselves on our clean facilities and efficiently run off-grid campsite in the forest!

Your tent was a good 40-50m into the dense forest, as shown on the map here https://maps.app.goo.gl/VzVQwuEifF9FBKCu7 (it's the one right in the middle of the map, direclty above the white facilities building).

You can also see from the map how much space we leave between individual pitches, offering a slice of forest seclusion for everyone and it's one of the things our guests love the most!

Thanks,

All the team at Pegs and Pitches

Tyckte om Tout était absolument parfait! Accueil très agréable, indications très claire et emplacement paisible. De formidables souvenirs.

Från föreståndaren: Merci pour votre note de 10/10 ! Nous sommes ravis que vous ayez apprécié la forêt et que vous en gardiez de merveilleux souvenirs. Encore merci, Pegs and Pitches

Tyckte om I would say the Faraway pitch was the best pitch I have ever stayed at. It was very private, surrounded by beech trees. It was a good 5 mins walk to pitch from carpark with wheelbarrows provided. Coming back up the path was tricky when leaving as heavy camping gear and tree roots and a bit of an incline was a fair workout
The staff were very helpful and friendly. Enjoyed the bucket showers and the whole eco ethos of the site. Very dark, must bring a torch. Flushable toilets, washing up area and showers by reception very good and clean.

Tyckte inte om The price in July at £54 per night was high. The compost toilets ,washing up area and showers could have been cleaner, not kept as well as the toilet area near reception.

Från föreståndaren: Hi Pamela,
Great to hear that you considered our Faraway pitch to be the best you've ever stayed on!
As for the Faraway facilites, we do clean them at least 3 times a day (which is more than most campsites - and our facilities are generally extremely highly rated), but very occasionally they are subjected to some tomfoolery from a group of children (at least we hope it's children!), who have been know to mess around a bit in and around the facilities - when this does happen, we do clean them as soon as we're notified.
We hope to see you again soon in our lovely forest.
Thanks,
All the team at Pegs and Pitches

Tyckte om Absolutely loved this place, private pitches with nature all around with nice walking routes. Very clean and well kept facilities.
