What customers say
This is a very popular, large campsite with direct beach access, praised for its excellent facilities, including swimming pools, and great entertainment, especially for families. Many visitors highlight the friendly, helpful staff and the overall cleanliness of the site and pitches. While generally highly recommended, some guests found the site to be overcrowded, pitches to be close together, and noted issues with WiFi and the booking system for some activities. A few also mentioned the toilets and showers could benefit from modernisation.

Fully-serviced hardstanding touring pitch
Liked Locatio. Showers good and toilets clean.
Disliked Jam packed site. Pitches are a good size but packed in so much with just a thin road between you and the pitch opposite making it difficult to manouver a caravan onto pitch. Stone gravel also means it is a difficult job with motor movers and jockey wheel being dragged along. Toilets are quite far from pitches. Not enough staff... an hours wait for food each night, 15mins to get served. Mixed reviews on staff, most seemed rushed and short of patience which meant customer service was a little off centre. Not the worst but probably wouldn't go back.

Electric grass pitch
Liked The access to the beach.
Disliked Site seemed extremely cramped on the pitches. Very busy site had to book for indoor pool and bowling not easy to use booking system.
The club house was not big enough to cope with the visitors.
Issues with booking in cars on site and the barriers.
