"Superb location. Stunning views. 15 min walk to beach through a woodland."
"It’s a 10 minute walk down a lovely woodland path and your paddling in the sea on Robbin Hoods bay!"
Cons:
"Location is good for the walk to RHB but not an elevated position so there are no views but its a level, fairly basic site."
"The site was very busy and really, with us all cramped in and on top of each other like we were at a festival, it felt a little bit like camping in a grassy car park outside a stadium event for a touring cbeebies show."
"The site was extremely crowded no views whatsoever just felt we were trapped in."

"Having read previous reviews of the site I was a little put off by the owners response to negative feedback on another review site."
Value for Money
Pros:
"Never had a bad stay here In 40 years of visiting. Clean, tidy place. Lovely surroundings, reasonable prices and great walks."
"Great value for money 5 star."
"Can not fault this site at all, we paid £32 for a night for 2 adults and 1 child with EHU and toilet/shower access which I thought was great thanks for having us!"
"Camping was cheap and easy enough with ok facilities."
"We love middlewood. Started years ago with camping, and have moved through the accommodation available."
"Five star recommended and will definitely return. One of the best stays we've had."
"For three adults and two children for three nights it was £219, if it were half the cost I'd give 5stars."
Cons:
"The WIFI isn't free. It cost £3.00 for one night, strange after paying £19.00 for one night stay in the first place and dropped connection or didn't work all night."
"Had to book 2 nights, more expensive compared to the average of other sites."
"Was a little expensive for off season & might feel a bit hemmed in when it's busier."
"We paid £33 per night on a bank holiday weekend which on closer inspection i thought was overpriced for the quality of the facilities."
"Very expensive, £37 for 1 night (ouch)."
"Paid £124 for 2 adults and 2 children, we have previously camped on electric pitches before at other campsites which has cost less than this and facilities were similar to Middlewood Farm Holiday Park."
"Disappointed that they did not pass on the VAT cut as the government had intended."
