Liked A peaceful site, with an Environment friendly ethos. Compost toilets spread out across the site, washing up facility and showers.
Easy to book and self check in.

Disliked Not a negative comment but we didn’t realise we wouldn’t be allocated a pitch. It was a turn up and find a pitch scenario and as we arrived later afternoon therefore we couldn’t easily find an available pitch but regardless we found somewhere on the end and was quite happy.

Liked Czyste, spokojne miejsce

Disliked Brak drzew na polu, przy bardzo słonecznych dniach warto zabrać ze sobą parasole przeciwsłoneczne

Liked Nice mown circular pitches with allows each person their own space, separated by longer grass. Good security too with locks on the gates so no passersby wandering through. Hot water for washing up.

Disliked Compositing toilets ran out of toilet roll and didn't feel well looked after. Didn't see anyone visit them all day Saturday despite the site being packed.
Lots of people allowing kids to scream and run about well into the night. 11.30pm it finally got quiet (curfew for noise here is 11pm but most campsites suggest 10pm, so i think the later curfew encourages the noise running late into the evening).

Liked Excellent location , large circular pitches separated by natural long grass with pathways between gave excellent privacy but still allowing to be social if you wanted to. Definately our prefered pitch design. The picnic bench and fire pit per pitch was prefect and we'll used. Really warm powerful shower, the best we had use at a campsite for a while. Found the compost loos easy to use from the instructions (plenty of them). Washing and washing up sink used and two water points were plenty. Definately will stay againand extended our stay whilst we were there. Meet some really nice people and there are great walks to the forts (& cafe) or nature reserve also excellent for our dog Prefect for star grazing & sunrises and falls around the firepit. Others staying at the same time found it easy to catch a train into central London and also to bike ride from here.

Disliked Nothing.

Liked Pitches were level and generous with a good amount of space in between. Having a picnic table and fire pit on every pitch was great. Clear paths to the compost toilets which were clean and regularly checked.
The showers were hot and powerful.
The site was peaceful and we will happily camp there again.

Liked Great spot. I liked the mown areas with benches and a fire pit – it gave the plot a natural, relaxed feel. There’s a back gate leading to a good walking route, and amenities were close enough to reach on foot without being intrusive. The site facilities were excellent, including clean loos, a shower, and firewood.

Overall, the easy drive-up access and generous plot made for a very comfortable pitch.

Disliked Nothing - I will definitely be back!

Liked Everything about it. It was an absolute pleasure to stay here. Quite an interesting and unusual site, with emphasis on being low impact and eco-friendly. The site also has a very laid-back approach, with nobody on site but a very responsive and helpful Vince just a phone call away. It was a really peaceful stay, with good space between pitches. The fire pits are a real bonus, and make all the difference to the experience, with logs being available to purchase (via QR code and payment site). There is a really nice walk along the sea wall, including to the nearby Tilbury Fort which is worth a visit.

Disliked Being unable to amend a booking date, via Pitchup. Really this should be part of the site functionality. Same with being able to edit a review.
Otherwise the only minor niggle was the shower was a bit too hot for me, personally, albeit adjusting the shower head helped a little.

Liked An jedem Stellplatz sind Feuerstellen, wir haben das Lagerfeuer sehr genossen.

Disliked Leider hat jemand hinter das Klohäuschen gekackt und unser Hund hat das gefressen. Derjenige hat scheinbar Marihuana geraucht, worauf unser Hund ins Krankenhaus musste!!

From the manager: Ed: Unfortunately, someone ketted behind the cloakroom and our dog ate it. The one apparently smoked marijuana, whereupon our dog had to go to the hospital !!

This is how it translates to English.
Was your dog on a lead?

If so how did you let it eat anything?

Why was this not reported at the time?

Liked Very spacious pitches spread out around the site so they're not right next to each other. Picnic bench and firepit on the pitch was a nice plus. Plenty of toilets around site so you don't have to walk too far to one.
