Primitive grass tent campsite
Liked Beautiful location, large clean and quiet site. So close to the beach, fell asleep listening the waves every night. The beach so incredibly windy but the camp site as perfectly sheltered and warm. Stunning views, lovely walks. Amazing location
Disliked Not hot water at the sink wash up area, and no drainage board which made it harder to stack stuff before drying them.
