What customers say
This well-maintained campground gets high marks for its family-friendly vibe, roomy spots, and lovely lakeside setting. Guests love the many activities, especially watersports, mini-golf, and footgolf, plus the clean facilities and helpful staff. While a few noted occasional bar noise, most found it clean with good staff. Despite wanting more amenities like a shop, the overall feedback is very positive, with many planning return trips.

Primitive grass tent campsite
Liked Absolutely loved this place. Enjoyed it so much we booked an extra night.
So much to do for all ages. Usually struggle with having kids with such a big age gap. But this place is perfect for kids of all ages. And was really relaxing on a night. Our tent was near the toilet so that was great, toilets and showers were pretty clean too! Reception staff were all amazing. So so friendly and very helpful.
Disliked Nothing at all i disliked about the place. We enjoyed our 3 nights.

Primitive grass tent campsite
Liked The site is brilliant for children, very reasonably priced and I like that you can book just 1 night as many sites are minimum 2.
Disliked They advertise fishing but you cant fish unless you are in a lodge, this was a big let down as thats the reason we booked this site so my son could fish on the lake. They also said all bikes were out of use due to punctures and the brakes not working.

Amazing site, will definitely return
Primitive grass tent campsite
Liked Fantastic set up and well maintained (don’t understand the negative reviews on showers/toilets?) - plenty of space (even when full), good range of facilities and of course the lake if you’re a fan of paddle boarding etc. Enclosed area to exercise dogs is a great addition.
Disliked Mention of a no open flames policy but not enforced - would’ve liked to have brought a fire pit if I’d known.

Primitive grass tent campsite
Liked Flat camp ground - well maintained, grass cut short. Plenty of open space for families to play games. Toilets were clean - 8 available to campers. Couple of nice bars on site. Short distance to Hornsea. Quiet rule after 11. Also liked that there were no caravans mixed in with the tents!
Disliked Nothing.

think twice before booking
Primitive grass tent campsite
Liked Really liked how clean the lake water was, and the pitch size was just right!
Disliked I've visited this place twice, and both times I had the same issue: after taking a shower, I developed a rash around my face and neck. The first time, I thought it might’ve been caused by the shower gel, but when it happened again on our second visit—immediately after showering—I’m convinced the water in the showers is not clean.
You also have to pay to access the lake, even if you're self-launching, which seems excessive.
The music from the bar is extremely loud and continues until midnight. Unfortunately, it’s not enjoyable music—just noise, which really disturbs the atmosphere if you're looking to relax.
We requested a different pitch two and a half weeks in advance (having stayed previously and disliked being in the middle), but we were given the exact same pitch again. The first time, we let it slide because we booked late. This time, we made the request well in advance, so it was frustrating to see it ignored.
Having a central pitch was a terrible experience. Kids were constantly running and shouting around us. One group even broke our tent while we were trying to sleep, and we had to go speak to their parents. Another group of children—who weren’t even staying on site—were left running around while their parents drank by the toilets. One of them hit our car. It felt chaotic and poorly managed.
We also wanted to rent bikes, but the ones available were completely unsuitable—clearly children's bikes, with flat tires, rusted frames, and no maintenance at all. We tried to lift one and spin the wheel—it barely moved. Honestly, they shouldn't be charging for these; they shouldn't even be offered for free.
Additionally, there isn’t much to do on-site unless you’re willing to spend a fortune.
If you're looking for peace, cleanliness, or decent service, this is not the place for you. We gave it a second chance, but we won’t be returning.

WiFi on the campsite would have been nice but wasn't really an issue.
