Dearden Wood

Excellent spot. Charming site, with neat "forest floor" pitches equipped with a small bench and a fire pit, and adjacent parking. The pitches are screened from one another so despite being close they still feel reasonably private. A good size, although not sure how much room there would be around some of the biggest tents. Dedicated campervan pitches too. Didn't look at the bell tents. Facilities were clean and functional, including a well received kettle, microwave and toaster. Hot shower! Pizzas on Friday night, but sadly we missed these. Nearby walk to a waterfall which is pleasant, and can be extended (up to a mile) to a decent nearby pub. Didn't have time to explore anything further Friendly and helpful communication from Jessy running the site, including changing dates, although didn't manage to bump in to them IRL! If I was staying in the area again would definitely go back
