Liked Friendly popular place. Lovely club house,
Miles of cost for walking and activities,enjoyed our short break 👍
Disliked Toilets bit of a distant away. But allowed to use club house toilets when open so can’t really complain.
Nice site to stay in a static caravan but not equipped for tourers.

Liked Lovely setting. Literally on the beach which is great
Disliked The tourers are far too close together. Not much space at all. More of a site for static caravans
We went in the clubhouse on the Friday night at 7.30 for food but the kitchen was closed. No explanation as to why. They had been serving food.
Would highly recommend for anyone
