What customers say
Great spot near the beach with a friendly crew. Facilities are clean but a bit old-school for some. Families love the fun stuff and conveniences, though it can get a bit packed and noisy at times. Showers and Wi-Fi cost extra.

Yeah it was ok.
Beach Field Zone 4 unpowered grass site
Liked The camping field was extremely close to the beach and it was lovely. Only a short walk away.
Very child friendly. Good play park
Shop was well stocked.
Showers were good/clean/big and pressure was fab.
Disliked If camping in the camp field - its a long distance to the shower/toilet block as its all the way back by reception. With children this was a major negative. There was only that 1 block of facilities for the whole entire camping/static on site for everyone to use.
The pub was very very dated. Needed modernisation to match the park.
When we turned up I did not really feel welcomed. I did not get an hello or welcome. The staff in reception seemed quite rude/abrupt/stern. It seemed very old fashioned in a way with organisation. We never got a map to take away with us either which we didn't like.

Liked Was clean staff friendly and very quite
Disliked 10am departure to early as the site has a no noise before 9am policy and when you have kids that have to be woken up early to pack up its hard to be quite

Avoid in the Summer
Beach Field Zone 3 powered grass site
Liked The campsite had access to the beach and views over the sea. We can see how outside of the holidays this could be a nice spot! Staff were really helpful and friendly.
Disliked There was only one toilet and shower block for the whole site. It is incredibly overcrowded with pitches crammed in next to each other. Items from the shop were also very expensive.
We found the site to be very noisy throughout the night and booked elsewhere.

Liked Great place for families. Entertainment was great 😊 very reasonable price on food & drinks, very crowded need to park pushchairs outside rather then inside taking up a lot of room. Air con needs to be working as well to many bodies at one time made it so hot
Disliked Not very clean showers & toilet were very dirty someone had diarrhoea & just left to the next person to clean up in shower room no bins you had to walk quite far to get to them same with toilets very over crowded

Perfect family get away
Powered grass site
Liked The whole holiday, from the moment we arrived at the park, we were greeted with friendly, professional staff who spoke us through the whole rules of the park and times of opening and closing of different activities on the park. Liked the one way system , so much easier to move around the park, showers were great and always very clean and tidy, infact all communal areas were clean and tidy and professionally looked after. All staff were kind and very helpful through out our stay, we had family that were there days before us but we put in a spot by them so we could enjoy our holiday together. The beach is beautiful and also kept well and only few min walk from site. The whole stay was perfect.
Disliked No wifi , the only wifi is in the club house but even that was temperamental. And in some cases it was good to get away from our phones, but for me having a disabled son who I'm an emergency contact for it was hard to keep contact without wifi.

Wouldnt rush to go back but for the right price wouldn't turn it down

Liked Kids have right of way has it's own beaches. Good fresh meat bread and cakes.
Disliked To many pitches to close to each other. Could do with an update on a few things. And swimming needs to be free if not for all at least for any kid and a parent that can use the bigger pool. The traffic in and out isn't the best. Its very good at not being bad.
