We had an amazing getaway at PARKGATE Farm, enjoying a picturesque location that was so peaceful. The accommodation was clean and comfortable, making our stay very enjoyable. However, the noise from nearby activities disrupted the tranquility we were hoping for. Still, we found plenty of lovely walks and beautiful views nearby.

My family and I had an incredible time at Parkgate Farm! The cabins are immaculate and give you cozy comforts that make for a relaxing getaway. The picturesque views and friendly donkeys add to the charm, but the rooms can get quite warm at night and the TV setup could use some improvement. Overall, it's a lovely place for a peaceful and rejuvenating stay.

I had an amazing experience at Parkgate Farm! The clean, spacious cabins provided incredible views, and my kids loved running around the grassy areas and interacting with the friendly donkeys nearby. The staff went above and beyond to make us feel welcome. Just a heads up, the Wi-Fi was great but sometimes the dining options could use a bit more variety.

Our stay was incredible, especially because of the stunning surroundings and cleanliness of the site. The facilities were top-notch, although the living space in our caravan felt a bit cramped for our group size. The attentive management really enhanced our experience, making it a delight. We can't wait to return!

We had an absolutely wonderful stay at Parkgate Farm! The cabin was immaculate and had all the necessary amenities, making it a fantastic value for money. The setting is peaceful with lovely views, but the bedrooms got quite hot in the evenings, which was a downside. Overall, we really enjoyed our time and would love to return.
