What customers say
Great spot with beach access & friendly staff. Guests loved the pools, entertainment & facilities. Pitches are roomy & flat. However, some found the loos grubby & old-fashioned, and a bit of a trek from touring spots. Management is looking into it.

Lovely site, plus entertainment passes.
Unpowered grass tent or trailer tent site (large)
Liked Great facilities, clean, heated toilet and spacious pitches. Wi-Fi is good but doesn't stretch to all pitches.
Disliked Road had lots of substantial potholes, one of which i tripped in due to no light in camping area, and broken streetlights on main path.

Powered grass site (large)
Liked staff were so pleasent and helpful we were taken to our allocated pitch which was exactly perfect by a man i think his name was morgan who said if we need any help with anything he would come back and check we were ok which he did but we were all good ty so much activities were all good as well i did like the idea of the showers hoses that you could take of the hook and wash yourselves properly
Disliked the showers were a bit cold maybe you could ave them on seperate gas bottles to the washing up section as it seemed everyone wanted to shower and wash up at the same time

AVOID
Powered grass site
Liked Close to the beach
Disliked No hot water in the showers for 4 days, member of staff told us the hot water is unreliable, I complained to the reception staff and they said they were unaware of the problem but 3 days later still no hot water, hearing small children and grown adults crying because of how cold the water was, not funny.

From the manager: Hi Linda,
Thank you for taking the time to leave a review.
While we're pleased to hear you enjoyed the park's location and proximity to the beach, we're sincerely sorry to learn about the lack of hot water in the shower facilities during your stay.
We completely understand how disappointing and uncomfortable this must have been, particularly for families with young children. Having access to reliable hot water is a basic expectation, and we're very sorry that this fell short during your visit. We can appreciate how frustrating it must have been to raise the issue and feel that it was not resolved during your stay.
Please be assured that your comments have been shared with the park team and will be reviewed thoroughly.
Thank you again for your feedback, and we apologise for the inconvenience caused. ^EC

Poor welcome & signage upon entering the site. Booking request ignored
Powered grass site (large)
Liked Flat pitch. Toilet/shower block clean and tidy.
Disliked As a blue badge holder my request on booking to be near water tap and waste area was totally ignored. I was at the furthest point from facilities on the site.
On entering the site no instructions of where to go were provided when booked or at the entrance to the site. We followed the sign for camping and tourers but there was no one to welcome us or explain where to pitch. A passing worker was helpful and went to get our welcome pack and pointed to where the taps, grey waste were located. Still not sure where the Elsan was located. We were pitched near and part under a tree and had very poor TV signal. Very dissapointed. ALL new customers should be welcomed and better signage is required with more taps and waste points. No comment on other facilities or entertainment as we did not use them.
