What customers say
This campsite boasts a fantastic location, a short walk from West Bay, with many visitors praising the friendly and helpful staff, particularly wardens Andy and Dave. Pitches are generally described as spacious and well-maintained. While facilities are mostly clean, some guests found them dated and in need of refurbishment. The park is well-located for exploring the area, and the on-site amenities and entertainment are popular with families. Occasional issues with Wi-Fi coverage and noise were noted.

Star fully-serviced hardstanding touring pitch
Liked Great area, very friendly staff. Park was lovely and clean. The girls who manage the craft were lovely and made us feel welcome. We had lovely conversations during the activities. My childern really enjoyed the out door park.
Disliked Kinda wish there was a little playground at the camping area, everything seemed very far away for the kids. Campsite was a bit of a nightmare to navigate a caravan on. (meny people had problems) Main ladys toilets in the show bar didn't have any toilet roll or hand wash and was quite dirty during the day (had to mention to staff). The food from the bar at the end of the night was awful, chips felt re-cooked, you could snap the pizza, and the kids meal burgers were burnt. Very annoying when we got back to our caravan, especially after paying + £60. Just one guy hosting the entertainment, don't know if it's because I live next to parkdeans trecco bay, I expected a whole host of entertainers, tho he was very good. No wifi at the pitch, and 5G signal wasn't great.

Over priced for what you get
Electric gravel touring pitch
Liked Close to the beach and restaurants / pubs , Touring warden was very nice and polite
Disliked The toilets and shower block very dated and quite basic
The plot we stayed on felt like we were staying in the car park ,
£60 a night seems a rip off to be fair
But I guess your paying for there location

Anonymous Electric grass pitch
Liked The weather lol
Disliked Put on touring pitch no 1 which turned out to be a dried mud patch, VERY uneven, we tried levelling but to no avail. Turned our motorhome round but the man 'in charge' made us turn it around and wasn't interested in our reason for trying it the other way. Water wouldn't drain from any sink, I had to try to sleep without rolling out of bed and using our toilet was difficult at an angle! Opening kitchen cupboards was a nightmare as things fell out when you opened the door. The site is made up of hundreds of caravans (static) and it felt that the area where touring is, was an afterthought. Not impressed and certainly won't return or recommend.

Great central location in West bay.
Star fully-serviced hardstanding touring pitch
Liked The park is in a great Central position with good facilities and restaurants on site.
The wardens Dave and Andy were just fab.
Really friendly and helpful and the staff in reception are really nice too.
The park is clean, well kept and I found the touring pitches adequate and the area was quiet. A nice secure dog exercise area was a bonus.
The bus stop is really close and easy to get along the south cost with cheap busfare.
Disliked The toilet block was a bit dated but otherwise functional and kept clean.
