We’ve just had a lovely few days at FF, my kids being free to roam the large field and playing in the lake.

However, it’s a long drive from the south east and I wondered if anyone knew anywhere similar around England?

I've asked this question before, nobody has ever found one I don't think! We love Fforest Fields, it's very unique, but for us it's a 6 hour journey and we now gravitate to adult only sites.

Wishing you luck with your search.

Indeed no one else has come up with another site similar to FF, with a big playing field, a stream, a man-made lake big enough for some water sports, an excellent facilities block, excellent WiFi, availability of all weather pitches and other small yet very thoughtful touches like free use of fridge freezer and lockable phone charging points, etc. etc...

I am planning to return next year, and shall contact Katie to see when she would start accepting bookings as their calendar only goes up to January 2022 at present.

Yeatheridge Farm in Mid Devon is similarish. Lakes are for fishing not boating but has football field, swimming pools, bar/restaurant/takeaway, horse riding, walks though the woods etc.

Hope you are enjoying yourselves and the trailer is behaving itself.

No good for single/solo campers as they do not offer a single person discount - I asked and that's the response I received.

If I was a solo camper, I wouldn't dream of asking for a discount. After all, you're still taking up a pitch, still using their facilities etc etc. Try a site that charges per person, and not per pitch 🤷‍♀️
