Liked Well maintained, warden regularly drives round site, facilities spotless, hot showers, great price. Easy walks along the beach from site, one way to Kessingland or longer the other to Lowestoft or use the regular bus service right outside the site. Devon stay this year and another planned.

Lovely camp site in a beautiful location. We would definitely go again
Powered cement/asphalt and grass travel trailer campsite
Liked Pitches were spaced out well. Staff very friendly. Fantastic fish and chips shop on site on a Wednesday. The bathrooms were very clean and we saw so many staff members keeping them tidy and clean throughout the whole day. It was super muddy out and only once did I see muddy footprints in the shower block. In a lovely location.
Disliked The pitch we was on got very muddy even though it was hard standing, it was like that when we arrived and got worse as we stayed. It made it very wet and muddy inside the awning. But we were there during storm Pedro and its winter time. So I can put it mostly down to that.
