What customers say
Quiet, well-kept campground with spacious, level sites, many with full hookups. Guests rave about spotless facilities and friendly, helpful owners. A secure dog run is a hit. While facilities are generally adequate, some noted a need for more restrooms/showers in peak season. Play park planned.

FHU cement/asphalt and grass campsite
Liked Very Clean and tidy. We had an extra large plot (no 11) and it was very well situated for all the facilities. Dog field was excellent for letting the pooches off the lead.
Disliked Dog field could do with some lights as we struggled to find the poo in the dark

Primitive grass campervan, tent or trailer tent campsite
Liked Great spot with plenty of space per pitch and nice distances between pitches. We stayed in a campervan in the tent area as we didn’t need EHU, which was perfectly level. Good enclosed dog run area and toilets and showers clean.
Disliked Not a dislike as such but facilities are limited. Facilities were fine for us out of season and site underused but with only 2 women’s toilets/showers and 1 disabled toilet/shower room for men/women usage it might be a little challenging during high season.

From the manager: Good afternoon, thank you for leaving us a review. We're really pleased you enjoyed your stay and that you liked our spacious pitches. We're glad that the facilities were sufficient too. We do actually 4 showers and 4 toilets (3 for woman to use and two for men). In the summer months we also hired an additional toilet 'just in case' but this didn't get much use at all. We hope to welcome you back, best wishes, Sarah and Callum
Excellent site
Primitive grass campervan, tent or trailer tent campsite
Liked Lovely well thought out and maintained site. Facilities are excellent and exceptionally clean. Pitch sizes are large and spaced out (and not too many!)
Friendly owner who took the time to chat and check that everyone was ok.
Would definitely return … for longer next time!

Liked Everything! Spacious pitches , clean facilities , enclosed dog run , peace and quiet. Friendly and considerate owners .
Disliked Nothing really - probably will require more showers /toilets in the future when site busier.

From the manager: Hi, thank you for taking the time to leave us a review :). We're so pleased you enjoyed your stay. During the school summer holidays this year when we were very busy the toilets and shower block were sufficient. A few people did say they would like more but mainly most have said there wasn't a problem and were happy with no wait time or short waits/queueing for the showers. We did hire an additional toilet for the summer so we had one more than at other times of the year. Again thank you :), we hope to welcome you back in the future. Best wishes, Sarah
Great place to stay. We loved it.

Liked Well spaced pitches, clean facilities and friendly owner. Very peaceful site, just turn up at your pitch. They tell you your pitch number before you get there.
