Non-electric grass pitch
Liked: Getting followed by a curious alpaca at the entrance. Friendly staff Budget friendly Cheap and cheerful
Disliked: You do get what you pay for in this campsite Unhygienic bathrooms and showers. If guests treat the facilities with respect I don’t think this would be so much of an issue. security was questionable due to some “residents” decided to break through the trees like Jason from Friday the 13th. This Was a good touch, but won’t recommend for future bookings. as we had children with us. All in all you get what you pay for. If you expect the holiday inn standard for under £80 a week then you looking at the wrong site

Liked: Absolutely loved the location! The animals were a bonus, loved feeding them and really enjoying the peace and quiet on the field. The local pub was 10 mins walk and a lovely Thai was available which we really enjoyed and can be eaten in the pub. Loved the coastal walks and really enjoyed being able to relax. Hot showers and toilets were fab, we will be returning. Thank you

Non-electric grass pitch
Liked: Cheap and convenient. Farm animals and small play area. Friendly staff. Very cheap and only a 10min walk to the beach. Don't expect 5 star because your not paying for five star. It had everything we needed: grass to pitch a tent on and toilets/ water. Perfect 😃
Disliked: I could find any lights in the toilet block.

Liked: Nothing, it cost us £28 as we had two dogs with us, we drove in turned round and drove straight back out! Be warned it looks nothing like the photos! An absolute mess, and by the way… we are not snobby campers!
Recommend to friends Visit again
From the manager: I wish you had explained in what way it's an 'absolute mess',was it because the grass hadn't been cut? We grow the grass for hay but cut the perimeter for camping on(which has now been done),then it will be cut and bailed in July.All the photos are genuine ,mostly put up by campers.It will never be a pristine site as it is a farm site,
Friendly people. Lovely friendly donkey and 2 alapacas! Very rural…

Liked: Liked the view was stunning. The field wasn’t too wet and the facility’s were good.
Disliked: The geese attacked me even if I was sat at my tent I shared the field with the farm yard animals. Granted we went at the start of the season but expected the geese to be put away at night but they wasn’t and went through my bin and washing up at 2am with woke us all up.

From the manager: We are so sorry about the geese,our problem is they are nesting and chose to make their nests by the bar,as soon as they have hatched they will be going in the animal field out of the way. We are so pleased that you liked everything else and thankyou for your review.
