Positiv This campsite is quiet, peaceful, clean and level.
The warden and owner were friendly and helpful.
Also there’s a lay-by 300 yards from the main entrance, the local bus (number 59) will pick up / drop off and it accepts dogs 🙂🐶

Negativ I couldn’t find any faults.

Positiv - the track to the toilets etc is illuminated with pathlights and fairy lights
- the staff are very friendly and helpful
- the cafe on site is very good
- the facilities are well labelled and easy to use
- there's a direct path from the campsite to the beach, one does not need to walk along a road

Negativ The layout of the washroom/toilet is such that one can't have a wash at the sink without risking being seen from outside.
Showers are charged at 50p per 5 minutes - whether hot or cold.

Positiv Good location with lovely beach nearby. Cafe on site - basic meals with good portion size & great prices.
Some friendly staff.
Comfortable beds.

Negativ Cleanliness questionable here..

Visited on site cafe- noticed previous guests bedsheets just rolled up & left on edge of table. Stains/ old food was wiped away using used bedsheets in front of our eyes ! No cleaning / disinfecting whatsoever apparent.
The shower/ toilet facilities extremely basic. On visiting- both toilets had been used but not flushed. Thousands of mosquitoes / flies everywhere inside, didn't use shower as didn't want to risk being eaten alive. Toilet visit & hand wash was quickest in history.

The amount of flies (inside) the pod was disgusting & puzzling ! Yes, was aware we were basically in the middle of a field in the countryside, we do stay at lots of glamping places/ pods and always go prepared armed with bug spray BUT ! A few flies are expected of course, however we did keep our door & window closed yet the flies kept appearing constantly (inside) which was baffling. ALL night.. we were inundated, hardly slept due to swotting them. We counted 46 ! It was as though they were crawling out of the woodwork/ breeding under the beds?? Ridiculous. If we hadn't both had a few drinks we would have just gone home.
No lovely morning awakening or a leisurely breakfast for us ... woke up, packed up & left. Couldn't get back home quick enough. Sadly our 'relaxing' break was extremely disappointing on this occasion.

Positiv Small park on site for up to 13 year old, as well as bouncy castles & a games room.
Clean toilets & showers (50p per use - i didnt have any change so staff let me bank transfer to get some).
Washing up room and washing machine (didn't use but takes money too).
Very quiet & peaceful area, and everyone was respectful of the quiet periods (10pm til 7am). Could hear traffic going past on the main road occasionally but wasn't intrusive or overbearing.
Nearby fields had horses but I also saw a fair few rabbits in the early morning too.
Staff were very friendly, approachable and laid back.
Welcome pack was very detailed & included things to do locally.
We brought our own food but the menu of the tea room wasn't too limited, including a few vegetarian options.

(I can't rate the WiFi as im not sure if there was one, we didnt attempt to connect or use it but i thought that was a plus and enjoyed the screen free time).

Negativ The walk to the toilets. Its honestly not that far & by day 2 I was getting into a routine with the walk. But first thing in the morning felt like a mad dash in the cold air.
Unlit paths in places.
