What customers say
This campsite boasts a fantastic location, just a short walk from the beach, with stunning sea and mountain views. Guests praise the friendly and helpful staff, clean facilities, and spacious pitches. Proximity to local amenities, the train station, and sister site facilities are highlighted as major advantages. While generally well-maintained, some reviews mention the shower block could benefit from updating. Occasional noise from other guests and busy periods are noted.

Over all disappointing in need of lots of upgrades and a cleaner
Camping pod (pet friendly)
Liked The location as always never fails to impress view lovely from the pods
Disliked After visiting this site with my family for over 10 years. This year has left us unlikely to return, it’s just run down toilet block needs massive upgrades, not cleaned as much as previous years where I would often seen a cleaner in and out. No cope in hand dispenser toilet roll just dumped on the floor of cubicles. Then toilet roll tubes left all over the floor due to no bin in toilets the shower cubicles where rotting at the bottom. And after booking an extra day via pitch up I was told I needed to move pods and my family who did the same in their tent where told to take down their tent and move it to another pitch . Obviously after a complaint to the manger this was resolved but just seemed very disorganised and stressful. TVs also removed from pods not a problem but was a nice little luxury for the kids in the mornings. Unfortunately after many happy years spent here we will be looking for another site for our mini brake next year.

Anonymous Electric grass tent pitch
Liked Location was great, short walk (5 - 10 minutes) to the beach, restaurants, chippy and arcades.
Most pitches will have a sea view.
Disliked We asked to be pitched together, though when we got there we had pitches away from each other, which was slightly disheartening.
There was no receptionist on site for two of the three days we were there.
Toilet blocks and showers there isn’t enough to cater for everyone, and not cleaned regularly, they would be filthy by noon, so get your shower in early morning.
It looks like the site is expanding into a neighbouring field, so there was workman there most days.
There was only one washing up sink on the site, as there was another one that seemed to have been taken out and just dumped upside down near toilet blocks, so most of the time you where queuing to do your pots.
We had no isssues in the night, but our other party members on another pitch experienced other campers getting loud well after 2am, causing them to get out of the tent and speak with them to turn the volume down.
