Non-electric grass tent or motorhome pitch
Liked Good facilities, convenient shop
Disliked Unsuitable for camping in tents due to wind. We left after one night with a damaged tent, some people left in the middle of the night. The location is pretty but not for camping.

From the manager: Thank you for your feedback. I'm sorry to hear that the windy weather affected your visit and that your stay was cut short. However, I would like to assure you that Crows Nest has been welcoming campers for nearly 70 years, with hundreds of thousands of guests enjoying memorable and enjoyable stays. While we are in an elevated coastal location, which can occasionally bring breezy conditions, this is by no means the norm. We hope you might consider visiting us again under calmer skies.

Toilet block not up to scratch during our visit. Rest of campsite 👌
Upper area fully-serviced gravel touring pitch (super)
Liked Have been before in a tent. This time i. A tourer. The park, the view, the weather, the proximity of the toilets/shower block in relation to our pitch. Chippy decent prices and was nice, although the curry sauce was not to our preference.
Disliked Very loud cackling party behind us in tent past midnight 😴
The toilets and showers were not very clean during our 3 days there.
I showered my child in the 2 right hand side cubical as going into the female ones and to my horror water from the next cubicle was coming in 🤮 I dont know if they share a drain or what.
I quickly grabbed him up, rinsed him and left.

Liked Lovely clean site with fantastic views
Disliked Flys ridiculous amount they were everywhere toilets showers etc had to but fly killer straps from the inside shop to try combat them in awning and van . Also no Internet on tenting pitches.

From the manager: Thank you for your review. We're pleased you enjoyed the stunning location and fantastic views.
The presence of flies is unfortunately more common during periods of very warm weather which coincided with your stay, especially in our countryside setting.
Please note that we do not advertise internet on the camping field or around the park. We have a centralised hub around the main facilities with free wifi.
We appreciate your feedback.
