Vom Platzbetreiber: Thank you Dan, hopefully see you all again sometime !

Positiv The overall camp site organisation, location to the beach and the level of communication from Anita.The pitch spaces are very generous. The veggie shed with the vending and coffee machines were something fabulous and innovative on my 12 yrs camping experience, loved the fact that we could purchase local produce/meat which made the camping logistics simpler, and the food was really good! Well done Anita for a great camp site!

Negativ Not a dislike as such as there is probably a safety reason to it but the location of the coin machines for the showers made the shower logistics a bit challenging, I defaulted to add 2-3 extra 20p coins per shower to cover for the extra time to come round to the shower area, undress and start showering without feeling it was a rush against time!

Vom Platzbetreiber: Hello and thank you for your lovely review !

Just to say that yes, you are correct, the coin meters cannot be placed in the shower cubicles themselves because electric and water do not make a good combination. To avoid any chance of fire or electrocution, they do unfortunately have to be located outside of the showers and in a waterproof environment. We do suggest in our welcoming email that you take someone with you to pop the coin in the meter so that the person showering can make use of every minute.

But so pleased to hear that you enjoyed our Veg Shed, produce and the campsite generally. Hopefully you'll pop by another time!

Positiv Well managed campsite
Good local produce supplies at the camp shop; excellent meat and vegetables

Positiv Friendliness of staff, ease of pitching, cleanliness of toilets and showers, offering of fridges for storing food, drinking water tap available. Close to beach. Availability of vending machines to purchase fresh/ frozen/ chilled meats. Fruit and veg / small grocery shop on sight. Great value for money.

Negativ Tightness of pitches. Too few washing up stations. No private sink cubicles for brushing teeth and washing. Meter for hot water at washing-up station wasn’t working accurately and although there were signs up to text Anita, this was a bit of a hassle.

Vom Platzbetreiber: Hi Sarah thank you for your lovely review. Just to address the negative minor points which you made for the benefit of future guests ...

All pitches are 10m x 10m, they are very generous in size and your vehicle does not need to be parked on it. Guests are pitched next to someone else, but that is to be expected on a campsite.

You have said there are no private sink cubicles for brushing your teeth and washing. I am very confused at this ! Every loo has it's own sink (the loos are private), plus there are several tooth brushing sinks on site. We can't offer any more unfortunately. We are a pop up site which is restricted by planning rules and regulations beyond our control.

I am sorry to hear that the hot water washing up sink wasn't working. As you rightly say, there is a sign above every sink, with my phone number, asking guests to let me know if there is a problem. You said it was a hassle to phone me, therefore you didn't me the opportunity to fix the problem for you !

I hope you enjoy the rest of the summer.

Positiv Lovely location, lovely welcome from Anita. Yes it's a back to basics campsite so compost loo's but they are clean and there are fantastic showers. Beach in easy walking distance. The veg shed vending machines are a great idea too. Was recommended the site by family, will definitely go back there.

Vom Platzbetreiber: Hi Jim, thank you for taking a moment to write us such a lovely review. It was lovely to meet you both. I am sorry you had to leave early because of the fires in the New Forest, but completely understand your concerns, Hopefully you will return one day. Hope you are able to enjoy the rest of the summer.

Positiv Flat pitch in garden field, well kept site, eco loos, hot shower available and 10 min walk to beach!

Negativ Nothing!

Positiv We loved it here, so relaxed with a great size pitch. I think the campsite was busy but it didn't feel like it because the pitch was such a good size. Super relaxed about having your car close too, but you don't have to have it inside your pitch.

So much fridge space for people to use and a decent amount of USB charging points. Super easy walk to the beach and a very cute little vending shop.

Our 2yo loved watching the tractors at work!

We will definitely come back and have been telling all our friends and family about it.

Negativ I personally don't like the smell of air fresheners in a natural loo, I would just prefer the natural smell. I think the combo isn't pleasant but can appreciate some people may not like the loos without the air fresheners.

Positiv Such a lovely vibe to this campsite! The facilities were amazing and well thought out. Lovely views over the hills. The toilets were really clean and yes although a little bit of a natural smell, I have had worse in beach toilets etc. The pitch was well sized. Loved the fact they had a little pen of goats, sheep, chickens, and ducks! It was also really well located to Salcombe, and also lots of local beaches so makes a great base for exploring. We only stayed one night but would 100% come back to stay!

Negativ Not the campsites fault but we were woken up at 1am by some noisy teenagers playing loud music walking up the lane behind the site. I am sure this is just a one off incident though!
