What customers say
This campsite is highly praised for its stunning views, spotlessly clean facilities, and exceptionally friendly and helpful owners. Visitors highlight the excellent arrangements for children, including a play area and games tent, and the on-site cafe receives consistent positive feedback for its delicious food and reasonable prices. While the site offers a peaceful atmosphere and great value, some note that pitches can be sloping and ground can be hard, requiring sturdy pegs. Overall, a highly recommended destination for a relaxing and enjoyable stay.

Non-electric grass tent pitch
Liked We liked everything..... great location, less than 10 minutes from the beach, lovely and welcoming hosts, the whole site is very, very clean, the pitches are well spaced out, beautiful view, great value for money, the snack bar is out of this world and its worth coming just for the this alone, games room if you fancy trying your hand at pool etc, we were able to take our dog who loved every minute. Thanks so much and can't wait to book again.

Non-electric grass tent pitch
Liked Some games in the play tent helped to keep the kids occupied.
Nice views
Clean and tidy
Disliked The site is on a big hill so not great for getting around and limited level pitching space.
The bins were far away from where we were placed and not many around the site.

From the manager: Hi
Thank you for staying with us and your review, of Quarry Hill Campsite, we do state in our listing and our name that we are on a hillside and sorry that this is wasn’t noted on booking. We have 5 bins around the quarry which are emptied throughout the day we don’t have any to the far left but unfortunately cannot place any there but feel we have adequate refuse bins available. We also have 4 level tent box / camper pitches, and 26 other level pitches on a tier system which give fantastic views of the coastline which we hope you enjoyed. We are glad that you took advantage of the free games on site and hope you have a lovely summer.

Perfect
Bell tent (no pets)
Liked Beautiful site, stunning views, Bell tents are lovely and facilities were spotless! The location was a big seller for us, we managed four beaches in four days (All under 15mins drive) but the greatest thing about Quarry Hill is the gorgeous family behind it. You can feel how much love and hard work goes in to the running of it and little touches like the group fire pit, cafe and play park really just add the icing on the cake!

Non-electric grass tent pitch
Liked Great location with amazing views. Basic facilities on site however very clean and well maintained. Owners were lovely and always around on site if needed, even keeping an eye on tents as we had some usually high winds. Pizza night was a hit with our family and the waffles got a thumbs up from my children!

Had an amazing stay. Really friendly owners and great facilities.
Non-electric grass tent pitch
Liked I would definitely recommend this campsite. The view was really lovely and they had great facilities. Really like that they had pool tables & table tennis. The showers were really powerful, big and clean. Make sure you take some good strong pegs, we took rubbish ones that kept bending. The owner was really kind though and lent us some more!
