What customers say
This new campsite offers excellent, clean facilities and a great location for exploring the area. Visitors praised the friendly staff, lovely restaurant with good food, and the popular aqua park. However, some found pitches to be small, experienced noise from a nearby road, and encountered issues with unfinished facilities or minor site maintenance like prickly weeds and glass in the grass.
Summary AI-generated from Pitchup.com customer reviews
Will be a good site when all the facilities are finished.
Electric grass and earth pitch
Liked Disabled facilities were excellent. I’d hurt my back and movement was painful and severely restricted.
Access to water park and restaurant. Food was good.
Proximity to Sandwich town, about a 20 min walk - very convenient.
Disliked Facilities were not finished - ladies toilets weren’t open. Gents were unisex, no problem in principle but insufficient capacity for the number of people staying on site.
Campervan pitches were very small. Bit concerning if a fire broke out in one. Many club sites are fastidious about spacing between vehicles for this reason.

Disliked Very noisy as by main road. As site only opened that weekend the ladies toilet/showers were open so had to share mens. As its not an option to do group bookings when I called about this i was told to book the 3 pitches i required one after the other,on arrival we were told that 2 pitches were together and the third at bottom of field so only used 2 pitches as we wanted to stay together

Electric grass and earth pitch
Liked The friendly greeting, was shown to our pitch promptly. As this is a new site all
Facilities were new and clean. Great location as driving distance for days out. Kids loved the aqua park, great way to burn some energy. Other aqua sports available which we would like to come back and try. Nice restaurant and snack bar.
Disliked Very windy as very open, however as this is a new site notice that trees have been planted around the perimeter so hopefully in a few years that will not be a problem. The grass was maintained well however there were a lot of prickly weeds.

I'm not sure if we would stay here again for now it's a no.
Electric grass and earth pitch
Liked The area and the aqua park, the restaurant was nice and the staff were helpful. We stayed here on the first weekend it opened for camping and touring. Facilities were new so all lovely.
Disliked The pitches are extremely small for campers and caravans. With the awning up we were at the edge of our pitch. Lucky for us we had fab neighbours with a motorhome, but two caravans with awnings would leave little to no space to walk around the outside.
Unfortunately had to take our daughter to the hospital after she fell over while playing football with other children. There was some glass in the grass and unfortunately she needed some stitches. The guy that we spoke to handled the situation well and they gave us a refund and offered us a free meal in the restaurant. It's a mixed review, maybe just some teething issues that will soon be ironed out.
