Powered grass tent or trailer tent campsite
Liked: First time camping with the family, And would 100% return to southerness, nice clean wc and showers, great location, large holiday park, kids had fun 😁
Disliked: Cutting grass on the camp site very early, states no electric scooters etc! As soon as we arrived seen loafs flying round the park, kids gutted as they didn't bring there's, Booking into swimming was fully booked 1 week before arrival so kids had no chance!
