What customers say
Well-kept campsite, great beach access with sea views. Spacious, flat pitches, friendly staff. Clean loos/showers. Good food & local amenities. Watch out for steep beach steps, occasional hot water hiccups, and it gets busy in peak season.

Seaside unpowered grass tent site
Liked Camping pitches how everyone was spaced out, made the experience peaceful. Every staff member were lovely and polite.
Disliked I know there’s bugs when you camp but the toilets camping end had an infestation of everything Friday night, it would be good to have a UV light and or notice to keep door closed.

Anonymous Powered concrete and grass caravan site
Liked Location was great - 1.5 hour walk along the coastal path to Lowestoft and 5 minute drive from supermarket for all your essentials.
Facilities clean, plenty of toilets and showers despite the site being busy, never had to queue and a chip van and burger van on site.
Close to a great beach which was a Site of Special Scientifc Interest where we spotted some unusual birds.
Disliked Endless yappy dogs. Wardens didn’t care despite more than one person complaining about the noise. Seasonal campers were just as bad with awful little dogs and their ignorant owners everywhere.

Powered concrete and grass caravan site
Liked Pitches were good sized. Bottom toilets/showers clean and good.food outlets available if you want them. Supermarkets close by.
Disliked Poor WiFi. No television signal, could be because we were right up close to a hedge.

good
Powered concrete and grass caravan site
Liked nice laid out site, amenities were very clean and looked after, easy to find and being right next to the beach was a bonus but in saying that it is a very steep climb down the steps to get there!
Disliked could do with a small shop or cafe which is open.
