Electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch
Liked: Friendly staff, well kept site senory lovely, toilet/shower all in one plenty room very clean. Nice area at the clubhouse to sit outside, prices not bad.
Disliked: Only small dislike or would like to have seen is at shop/reception area there was no fresh produce unable to buy anything for breakfast Site could do with more signage for directions how to get to club house ect. Also once at clubhouse it was a bit unclear how to order food. Had to go to bar and that was through a small opening in restaurant area,

Electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch
Liked: The site was very nice, we liked the countryside away from everything feel. Good size pitch and on the whole clean facilities. We opted for a different pitch than the one allocated as that one would not have suited us at all and we probably wouldn't have stayed. However, it seemed no trouble to anyone to provide a different pitch which we liked very much.
Disliked: We loved the fact that children were clearly enjoying their holiday but they were a bit noisy until pretty late on. I guess that's the risk you take when camping.

Electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch
Liked: It was so lovely to be in such beautiful surroundings,many places to walk through,sea views and splashing in was a great advantage in just 10 min walk away from our campsite,also we enjoyed so much in time in pool when weather was good enough to enjoy sea ,food in restaurant was delicious and reasonable prices also so handy corner shop wit actual grate o choice and make up all needs for us .The most enjoyable for our children was endless time in playground where children freely and safely could explore and make some friends which made my daughter in tears when we wos on departure to home , Fantastic place very well organised can’t find enough words how happy we were there and we definitely coming back next year for a bit longer. I will definitely recommend to families and to all so definitely will made good memories as we did . And actually it did remind me my own childhood where we could explore and play out till day is finished and only go back home when been hungry because place like this is bever enough time to be there ❤️

Liked: It was lovely apart from the rain. Payed for WiFi 3days 6.50 they took the money zero codes to put the WiFi on. The lady at the desk emailed them but on the last day I had someone message saying I should of got the codes which I didn't, still waiting on refund. However the park is lovely just a shame on connection with mobiles. The sea beach is 5min walk. Lots for kids to do. We just enjoyed chilling. Lovely and clean. Showers was nice and hot but need an upgrade. Plenty places to wash up. Club house which served food was at the other side of the campsite but a nice walk or drive. The reception has a shop and is very reasonable sold everything you need. Overall I rate this site 6 out of 10.
Disliked: WiFi Showers
