What customers say
This quiet campground has large, tidy sites in a lovely setting. Visitors loved the friendly staff and locals, handy on-site bar, and good value. Facilities are basic but clean; some suggested more showers and better signs. Great spot for walks and attractions. Many plan to come back.

Anonymous Powered cement/asphalt and grass campsite
Liked Peace. Place is ideal for just slowing down. The bar area has nice views and friendly staff. The walks on the estate are free to explore, what’s not to like .
Disliked The toilet block is outdated but didn’t bother us , a little more attention to the block would help .

Great campsite
Powered cement/asphalt and grass campsite
Liked We love this campsite, great location and few found another pub and cafe within walking distance!!
Disliked Care Ashore need to manage their bookings better, if you book via the website it gives you a pitch number where as pitchup don't. We had been there for 3 nights and someone parked on our pitch with our motorhome already there and said it was theirs! After a chat we sorted it out but the communication needs to be better if its staying as a non managed site.

Powered cement/asphalt and grass campsite
Liked We loved this site. There are just 10 pitches with EHU and the size of them is great - you have a hard standing wide enough for two vehicles and a similarly sized grass area. Pitches are not allocated and you don’t check-in when you arrive which made it feel very easy. In the main house there is a small shop and bar, and it was good to be able to walk there for a drink. It was all very peaceful and relaxing. We will definitely visit again.

Liked Lovely spot with well maintained pitches. Very friendly bar. Helping Care Ashore charity. Facilities were immaculately clean this morning.
Disliked I can imagine if the site is busy the toilet facilities are a little busy. However, they have tried and brought in two additional showers.

Great base for exploring the area
Powered cement/asphalt and grass campsite
Liked Lovely quiet site with large level pitches. TV signal is good, phone signal intermittent and WiFi at the bar in the house. Kitchen and 2x showers next to pitches and toilet block other side of Glampsite on the way to the bar at the rear of the house. Bar has aircon, which wad a blessing in 30 degree heat, and large TV. There's a water tap behind one of the pitches (No3) or, for motorhomes, one on the wall by the kitchen/showers.
Disliked Gravel driveway between pitches was noisy when driven or walked on and someone left site each day in a van around 5:30am. Some aircraft noise from being on Gatwick approach. No drive over grey waste disposal grid for onboard tanks.
