Liked: The views and peace quiet. Lovely village pub called the Masons Arms
Disliked: Mislead into thinking we could get a bus 5 mins walk down the lane. Not the case it was a mile and a half down hill along narrow road to nearest bus stop. Would not have booked if we'd known this

Powered grass tent campsite (three person)
Liked: The site is beautiful, and very quiet! The facilities are basic but clean, water was plenty hot enough for showers and washing up. All dogs were kept on leads and everyone was friendly. I will definitely stay again. Loved that the site had put signs further up the road telling you to ignore the sat nav with the correct directions.

From the manager: Thank you for your lovely review. We are glad you enjoyed your stay, we do hope to see you again in the future.

Powered grass campervan campsite (small)
Liked: View over the bay Great for star gazing Good recycling availability with bins clearly labelled.
Disliked: Entry to site requires attention. Very steep pitches, unable to get camper level even with 2 sets of chocks..
Recommend to friends Visit again
From the manager: Thank you for your review. We did make improvements to the entrance for this season, but unfortunately, heavy rains have caused it to wash out again. The good news is that we’ve already planned for further alterations next season, and we’re hopeful this will make a big difference. As for the pitches, we’ve found that most campers are able to level themselves out without issue, but we completely understand that it can be tricky at times. If you were having trouble, we would have been more than happy to assist you. Please don’t hesitate to reach out if you need help during future visits.

Powered grass tent or trailer tent campsite (large)
Liked: Nice location
Disliked: The site is basic, you can see the sea, a couple of cows and ponies in the distance. Toilets and shower blocks are dated but clean Prepare yourself for the owners. An elderly man drives round in his car every 10 minutes checking on people and asking what you are doing Another man along with a purple haired lady drives round on a gator, checking on people and what I can only describe as verbally abusing people The man on the gator provided us with some verbal abuse around our fire pit being on bricks (they did ask us to put them on bricks). This was comical. What I didn’t find pleasant was when the man swore several times at my child for touching his fence. If you are after a basic campsite, many rules, constantly being checked on and a good measure of verbal abuse, adults and children are fair game - book this campsite you won’t be disappointed

Primitive grass RV campsite
Liked: Nice country views Plenty of facilities Lots of green space for the kids to run around Friendly owner& staff
Disliked: The footpath path down to the beach through countryside was not open so it was a walk along the road
Recommend to friends Visit again
From the manager: Thank you for your review. We understand that the locked gate might have been an inconvenience during your stay. Unfortunately, due to past incidents where the gate was left open, which resulted in livestock escaping onto the roads and campsite, we've had to keep it locked for safety reasons. However, we’re always happy to assist – if you had asked, we would have gladly opened the gate for you and ensured you could access it on your return. It’s worth noting that this pathway only leads partway down the hill and doesn’t directly reach the beach, but we would have been happy to suggest the best route. We hope you had a great time and look forward to welcoming you back in the future.

Powered grass tent or trailer tent campsite (large)
Liked: The site is nice and very well kept(Grass). You can see animals on the fields in the distance. Showers were not to bad,always warm with plenty of power
Disliked: Getting on and off site is terrible.the biggest dip I have ever seen.it needs a ton on chipping atleast to fill it in. Sinks for washing up fine but not under cover.toilets on arrival were cleanish few things on the floor.they were not cleaned in the 4 days we were there (still same stuff on floor).we found the pitches to be quite small. There was an issue with our kids playing with other children and 1 of them touched the plastic ribbon fence. The guy who was cutting the grass swore at the kids. They all do drive up and down several times a day and can stare at you.we found the owner (now retired) a nice guy. We only seen the lady 1 time.but the other guy was not very approachable. We found him abit rude and intimidating. Always going on about the grass and don't burn it.everywhere you look are scorch marks.wouldnt stay again and would not recommend. We were made aware of people leaving early because of issues with the staff

From the manager: Thank you for your review. Thank you for bringing this to our attention. This is not something we were aware of during your stay, but we have since spoken with our staff to ensure everyone is vigilant in maintaining a family-friendly environment. If this had been reported to reception at the time, we would have address the situation. Regarding the tape, it is used to clearly separate different areas of the site to maintain order and safety for all guests.

Primitive grass tent campsite (three person)
Liked: Warm welcome and a clean and tidy site. Facilities were good and always clean, with no queues!
Disliked: Why are the tents always asked to pitch so far from the facilities when the camper vans and caravans with their indoor facilities park so near??
Recommend to friends Visit again
From the manager: Thank you for your review. The current setup is due to the location of our electric hook-ups and the fact that the ground near the facilities is better suited for levelling caravans and camper vans. We hope you enjoyed your stay.
