I am really surprised at so many bad reviews on this site. Went for a bank holiday camping weekend here with some friends and had a great time. Of course, if you expect luxurious rooms and 5-star service this is not the place to go. However, it is exactly what I like about camping: a slightly shabby, but cute little... More

Never seen such feckless owners - they really couldn't care less, as long as they got your money. No loos, showers, rubbish everywhere...pub wasn't much better - awful beer and the owner couldn't even count change (so she says, heard her say 'we'll have to owe you a quid' a few times...) Such a shame as it's a nice location,... More

If you were to take the Bates Motel, Fawlty Towers, Steptoes yard and your nearest landfill site and combine them with staff that really have no idea about customer service then thats this place. Well, the Bates Motel had working showers... The place was overflowing with rubbish, broken glass, full bins, old caravans and building materials. They advertise electric hook... More

STAY AWAY There are 5 tipi's which if you put them all together you might just about be able to build on that was fit for purpose! Once you... More

What a place!!! Rude owner called Babara. Campsite with rubbish everywhere a health and safety nightmare!!! A unkept and dirty place. Advise never to go there. A truly shocking place !! Food was good only highlight of the trip. Pub looked delapadated. We booked in for 2 nights in a tipi only managed one night!!!!

Very good! Met expectations. Would not be to everyones liking but if you like rough, ready and good laughs then go here. Nigel is awesome; very funny and very helpful - thanks!! We stayed in the tipis, cold but they did give us the coal and they have log burners. Canoeing was brilliant. Food is very good and worth the... More

It's like a fawlty towers themepark. Nothing worked properly and the staff were befuddled beyond belief. Had a great time, ate some great food, saw some great sights and drank some great beer. FIVE STARS +++ WOULD GO AGAIN.

This inn has great potential with a little more organization. We stayed in the 'pink room' which is charming. The food was excellent and value for money. We are going back in the summer to enjoy the local walks and scenery. This comment is for the inn only.

My adventruing pal & I stayed a The Hollybush Inn through a Groupon deal. I absolutely LOVED the place, the warmth of welcome, the friendly, laid-back ethos and the general warm hospitableness shown to us. As we were staying in Early March in a 4 person tepee with a weather forecast of Minus 5 overnight and awoke to a powdering... More

On arrival, we were ígnored for 30 minutes before finally catching 'bumbling eccentric' host Nigels eye. We were amazed at his extrodinary inability to multi task, which was matched by his talent to disappear when asked simple questions, such as 'which room are we in?' When he finally checked us in, he discovered he had already given our pre-booked room... More
