Liked: Lovely site, clean and tidy at all times. Friendly people. Everything on site if needed. Loved the wildlife and the secluded area the site was located in. The beach in a 2 min walking distance clean and so quiet. Didn't have to pay extra for Electric.
Disliked: The site was a little noisy at times with the tree felling, but this needs to be done for the up keep of the site . No WIFI unless you paid for it. Didn't spoil our holiday.

Liked: We came for the May half term for a week. Absolutely fell in love with this place! Campsite was spotless and well looked after, the best toilet blocks I’ve ever used on a camp site with toilets & showers in the same cubicles (which is really handy with 2 young children to shower at the same time). A dog wash station and dog blanket washing machine on site for after beach trips, we made alot of use of this. The leisure club offers amazing activities and would be enough to keep the whole family busy but we preferred to venture down onto the beach which was a 3 minute walk from our spacious pitch. The beach was incredible, full of rock pools up the side of the bay which was perfect for my little ‘treasure hunters’ and a white sand beach in the middle. A beach which is very easy to spend a lot of time as and get lost in time. We visited Brighouse bay, Dhoon and Carrick bay. And we fell in love with each beach, carrick bay is well worth a visit if your planning a trip to Brighouse bay and to talk a short walk over the cause way to the island. Would just like to add I never write reviews But me and my family have fell in love with this gem of a place and I’m already looking at coming back next year. Would definitely recommend to family and friends!!

Liked: An absolute beautiful campsite. The location was perfect for families with young children. Lots for the children to do on site. Fising ponds beach access , fantastic playground and swimming pool. The pitches were a really good size with a nice mix of tents and vans dotted around the park. Staff were very helpful. The facilities were really good , clean and tidy. Even family unisex bathroom cubicles which were very handy with little ones. We also had our dog with us and the park is very dog friendly with woodland/beach walks. We really enjoyed our stay despite the weather being a bit hit and miss. We will definitely return .
Disliked: The only downside was that the shop closed a little early an the pool and restaurant all closed on a Tuesday.
