Powered grass tent or trailer tent site
Liked: Perfect site for a 2 night camp for 2 + dog, beaches minutes away and trail to walk to them. Electricity hook up for tent and able to get a few essentials from fridge at reception if required (milks, rolls, sausages/bacon). Top camping field in great condition, there was a very wet for 24hrscon our last day and challenging packing up, however only leaving and seeing the roads was it clear how heavy the rain had been overnight... field stood up to it well as could have woke up flooded. Tricky to get the car up the hill on grass as a result and few tyre marks left (sorry!), we left Monday so had field to ourselves and just me to give a push!
