What customers say
Great beachside spot, clean facilities, and helpful staff get a big thumbs up! Spacious pitches and food vans are a hit. Access can be steep and noise happens, with minor gripes on showers/WiFi. Still, a top choice for a chill break.

Liked Big campsite with direct access to a dog friendly beach. Quite at night and lovely having the fish and chips van for dinner! Friendly staff upon arrival.
Disliked The toilet blocks don’t think there were enough for the amount of campers at the park and also the flush systems in both men and women’s was a bit of a struggle. Seemed another toilet block would help ease this. And unfortunately some campers made it dirty and messy.

Seaside unpowered grass tent site
Liked Location, friendly welcome at check in. Love the coffee van, and chippy!
Disliked Up all night as a large group of lads set up next to us. Quiet rule not enforced at all. Other tents/adults up all night with music playing, cars starting, very loud noise. Ruined my stay unfortunately. Had quieter nights at festivals…

Disliked Didn’t dislike anything about the site at all.
Just other campers who can’t be polite and adhere to the leave things how you would like to find them, always leaving the disabled toilet/shower room soaking wet
