After was is said and done, I'd still recommend and return.

Jun 2024

Liked I mean the location is stunning within walking distance of the beach (albeit you have to navigate some pretty steep steps). I also liked the space and the layout of the pitches, and the self-choice of where you want to locate. If you pitch at the farthest end it means you'll have a fair walk to the toilets and wash facilities. (some savvy campers brought bikes) We also loved the farm Chickens and 2 Turkeys wandering around the farm court yard. Just a shame there was no opportunity to buy fresh eggs.

Disliked What was disappointing was the surprise announcement that the campsite was having a private party in the adjacent field. When booking, this was not made clear albeit clearly planned. The music was loud until 12pm, and given there were families with young children it wasn't fair or right to have concealed this material fact from their booking site. I'm sure most would have made alternative arrangements given the choice. I will be asking for a refund for that night. The facilities are basic but functional. You do have to have Houdini skills to enter and leave the toilet cubicles as it quite tight. Also, the toilet window is adjacent to the washing up facilities so it can be a little entertaining and close for comfort (possibly unpleasant) for both parties. This is outside the owners control but there was a general odour of urine at the site. This may well be the downside of the distance to the toilet block and folk choosing to relief themselves 'au natural' against the hedgerow. We didn't, as we brought our own facility.
