Syntes om Great location, great view, good clean showers and toilets. Helpful staff.

Syntes ikke om Noisy at night time when busy, people playing music.

Syntes om Perfect location. Lovely beach.

Syntes ikke om The ground was so hard that we couldn’t get our tent pegs in at all. We had to buy 20 heavy-duty pegs from the campsite shop at £1.25 each, adding another £25 to the cost of our stay.

The eco toilets were a definite no for us. They might work well on an adults-only campsite, but many children simply didn’t know how to use them properly, so they were frequently left in a mess. To be fair, the staff were cleaning them constantly.

There was no dedicated playground, so children were playing throughout the camping areas. That wouldn’t necessarily have been a problem, but footballs were regularly flying towards hot camping stoves and hitting people or their tents. A designated play area would have made the campsite much safer and more enjoyable for everyone.

The campsite was also absolutely swarming with ants, which made the stay even less comfortable.

Syntes om The staff were fantastic - anything they could do you for you, they would. The pizzas were delicious, the ecotoilets took a bit of getting used to but I love the sentiment. Setting is gorgeous and I don't think you can be closer to the sea without camping on the beach.

Syntes ikke om There is definitely a family vibe, having some more activities to do for little ones would be nice - I could imagine a nice play park/football pitches right in the middle. Poor signal in the area, wifi across the campsite would have been handy. Only a few small things though.

Syntes om The view and the quiet.

Syntes ikke om Eco toilets. Stinky awful and really not necessary. They have showers which a lot of campsites dont, yet these awful toilets, right next to where you brush your teeth and wash up.. Over 100 people pooing into a bucket isnt hygienic .

Syntes om The space and view - could see for miles across the sea and very close to the beach - plenty of room on the campsite for everyone - the eco toilets and showers were kept clean several times a day - reassuring also when the security person drove (slowly) round the site several times in the evening
Pizza on the Friday is a great option and bacon sandwiches on a Saturday means you don’t have to carry so much food .

Syntes ikke om Not having an option to stay on longer if needed (only open for weekends) - check out later on a Sunday isn’t available which was a shame especially when only arriving late ish on the Friday
The music noise from some campers on the other side of the field on the sat night wasn’t dealt with very quickly which was a shame especially as everyone else had their music down much lower as to not interfere with anyone else but wouldn’t stop me staying at this site again.

Syntes om I liked the view to the beach from the campsite and the amount of space you can camp on.

Syntes ikke om I did not like the toilets because they were always smelling bad and there was no disabled access toilets.

Syntes om Spacious campsite and good options to choose pit.
Horizontal area. Very good for kids to play active games. Actually there were a lot of kids playing.
Top soil even grass, but has thick layer of gravel. Good for walking barefoot, but extremely difficult to push tent pegs in. First time in my life I had to use hammer.
Close to see. Good view to see ships arriving to Southampton port.
See is relatively shallow. Better for swimming on high tide. On low tide water a little bit dirty.
Good option to order pizza or burgers on site. We personalny did not order as we had enough of our own, our neighbours did order and pizza was tasty.

Syntes ikke om Eco toilets. Please check before if those are suitable for you and your family members, especially for ladies. We were struggling to use. Even had to find public one on the beach.
Showers are closed for night. Please make sure you are in time 😉
While booking, it was mentioned that barbecues are allowed. On arrival we learned that the only approved BBQ design is rented locally - should be lifted from the grass (which is fair) and wood should be purchased on camp site only. Which makes £20 per night. With fireplace not designed for grill. That need to be considered if you like to enjoy grilling.
