What customers say
Bay View Holiday Park is consistently praised for its immaculate cleanliness, spacious and private pitches, and excellent, well-maintained facilities, particularly the shower and toilet blocks. Guests highlight friendly and helpful staff, a great on-site bar and restaurant with good food, and a convenient location for walks and exploring the local area. While the vast majority of experiences are overwhelmingly positive, minor points raised include occasional issues with bin locations and WiFi strength, and some guests noted that the bar was not open mid-week during off-peak times. Manager replies indicate these points are taken on board.

We’re absolutely delighted to hear that you enjoyed every part of your stay, from the warm welcome on arrival to Bay View Holiday Park, to the facilities and pitch throughout your visit. It’s lovely to know that the little touches, like the music in the washing-up area and shower block, helped make you feel at home (and provided a good singalong too!).
