Em va agradar How close we were to the beach (field 2) the staff were lovely.
The beach is absolutely beautiful. Less than a minute to watch stunning sunrise/sunset over the beach. The site is close to trevone natural pool and everyone should definitely go take a look and have a swim. Shop was fully stocked and staff were helpful

No em va agradar The clubhouse. It's small, outdated and there is just not enough space.
The arcade. It's dreadful! Outdated, small the machines are terrible. Its a shame because it has potential. There really isn't enough to keep the kids entertained.
Shower block is outdated but clean. 20p for a short shower was a but of a nightmare.
We did get battered by the wind in the beachfield so keep that in mind when booking a tent. Although this isn't relevant to the park.

Em va agradar The view was amazing and staff were friendly and helpful. The beach was right on your front door step.

No em va agradar Toilet blocks were dated but cleaners kept it clean. A little annoying you have to pay for showers even though it’s cheap it seems unnecessary when you pay so much per night.

Em va agradar It’s being so close to an amazing beach. The toilet where also nice and clean the cleaner work very hard to keep the place clean

No em va agradar The pitches where so small we could touch the other people camper and tent next to us and the childern had no room to play. The showers where just one temperature very hot and to hot for my three year old she was screaming as it was to hot, they did not smell very nice. You have to pay for swimming and the showers

Em va agradar The location being close to Harlyn Bay but that's as far as it goes.

No em va agradar 1. Noise - The welcome pack stipulates no noise before 8am and after 10pm. Yet the staff drive around in noisy 4 x 4 from 5am. The club also stays open until 12pm and it is unbearably loud.
2. Clientele/Service - We were unfortunate enough to try food at the on site diner which was terrible. There was a football match being played with supporters amongst children swearing. I brought this to the attention of the security guard often found hunched over a fry up and rather than assist he advised that there was other locations my children could sit, notwithstanding they couldn't as they were eating. Not to mention you would expect a security guard to address those shouting profanities at the TV screen.
3. The arcade machines were in a large part broken or swallowing money without allowing my children to play. Many machines advise of a £1 payment per go when in fact they are just 50 pence such as the punchbag which is very dishonest. Aligned was the fact my son one a major prize on a tetris style game. An error code was presented and we once gain raised this with staff. A young member of staff turned the socket on and off. The machine still displaying an error code. He then advised the manager would resolved. Having waited 30minutes for the manager. When I finally managed to capture his attention he said that he wouldn't take my sons' word for the win and would instead review CCTV to corroborate but would do so the following day. I asked to leave my details so he could contact us and he refused. Alas, we havent heard back.
4. Avoid this place like the plaugue. There are plenty of alternative locations.

Em va agradar The clubhouse and park area. Kids all loved the park and lots of outside seating for you to sit out and have a drink while they play.

No em va agradar Park in general very busy. Pitches very close together, roads very narrow. Queuing for showers and having to pay to use the pool.
Toilets and showers very dated, only one block for the whole site, this is why there are queues for the showers. Often no hand soap in the toilet area.
Roads into the campsite also a nightmare, very tight lanes especially if towing.

Em va agradar Close to very lovely, easily accessible beaches, level pitches and friendly staff.

No em va agradar The toilet and shower facilities were inadequate for the size of the site, with most pitches located a considerable distance from them. Our particular pitch was a good 10 minute walk to and from the toilet, which in the daytime is fine, not so much in the middle of the night.

Basic amenities were poorly maintained, often no toilet roll or hand soap , showers had long queues with an unpleasant sewage smell. Additionally, the showers had very little pressure.

Waste management was awful, there is no chance of recycling as every bin is completely full with rubbish bags piled up and spilling all over.

Lovely position but considering the high prices charged, the overall experience felt a bit disappointing and far from good value for money.
