Electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch (no pets)
Liked This are is really beautiful we love it
Disliked Unfortunately the park itself is not so good. Playground very poor, swimming pool fully booked, food in the pub terrible, in the shop nothing, plus food corner wasn't prepared for so many people so we couldn't order any food.

Although the camping ground was good I wouldn’t return
Electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch (no pets)
Liked The camping ground was great amazing views very well kept camping area and a large pitch for the tents which was good
Disliked The showers were on a literal 2 second timer and new shower blocks had a ceiling that was basically a mirror not ideal for when trying to have a shower
Also in regards ti having to boom the pool it’s understandable but the is no signs anywhere informing that it’s something you have to do and where it says on the map to book gives the impression that it’s to book lessons and not for a day at the pool that was extremely disappointing not being able to use the pool in any of days I have stayed at the park luckily the beach was right there so just went to the beach instead but very very disappointing

Had a great time , all staff were helpful.
Electric grass touring pitch (no pets)
Liked Toilet, shower & wash facilities were excellent. Great pitch and helpful guest services. Good value for money .
Disliked Speed ramps were quite harsh for towing a caravan, especially one in particular. The grey waste & chemical waste area could have done with a water small hose for rinsing down the containers. Having to purchase WiFi
