What customers say
Welcoming, no-frills spot loved for its helpful owner & animals. Great for families near Southport. Some comments on tired loos/showers, plus occasional noise & crowding.

Liked They gave free ice cream to the children and the owner was lovely, they just need to make a few changes to make the campsite more nice
Disliked Too noisy, someone had their music blaring from their car till 2am. The base was so loud I could hear it through my earplugs. There was rubbish big piles of rubbish everywhere and broken toys. Owner was lovely, just needs a few touches and can potentially be a great campsite. Toilet facilities needs an upgrade aswel.

From the manager: Had no complaints about noise what we ever including from them
Essentially -one issue re the one and only pile of wood rubbish - that was the bonfire 🔥 waiting to be set off !
Which wasn’t -because of moaning grannies

Liked Nothing didn't stay
Disliked Do not book here . We turned up after booking two nights on pitch up with ehu to be told was fully booked and the site manager was rude and said it was nit his fault and they should have closed bookings . He did offer us a pitch where his pick up was parked about 50m from electric hookup to be honest the campsite looked shocking and scruffy

From the manager: We are a very poplar site
Very busy happy weekend
But despite finding some where for them away from the main mob that they didn’t like - with a power socket - they were happier being miserable !
But we do also get our share of odd balls and cranks
These ones
Enjoyed the stay , very good

Powered grass tent or trailer tent site
Liked Good location, friendly atmosphere, weather
Disliked On arrival, owner didn't have pitch for us, as 'everyone had turned up' and 'everyone wants electric. Ended up in a make shift spot running extension lead from a guy with a trailer tent.
Toilets were ok but wouldn't use shower.
Neighbours up talking/playing music till after midnight.
Huge rubbish pile by toilet block full of junk/food/unwanted items. Not good.
Poor lighting when going to loos in night.

Liked Had last minute vacancy for bank holiday weekend
Disliked A bit chaotic, overcrowded, staff shouted at children, toilets not clean, no showers… overall pitchup listing exaggerated facilities massively
Recommend to friends Visit again
From the manager: Popular site and was record breaking weekend
Unwarranted negative comment
1) It was parents shouting at children - not staff
2) We have multiple showers but were busy
