What customers say
This park has lots to do, with guests loving the clean, modern showers and friendly staff. Kids' entertainment, the arcade, and pool are big hits. Some noted issues with wet pitch conditions and occasional communal area cleanliness. Despite that, many found it good value and want to return.

Powered grass campsite
Liked Cleanliness of toilets and showers and the washing up station.
Good size pitches nice to have the trees as shelter.
Swimming pool was great
Restaurant was clean and arcades handy
Shop was brilliant with so much useful stuff.
Amazingly clean around the whole site.
Pottery was brilliant and very reasonably priced.
Disliked Not being able to book the pool more than once in a day.
Checkout could be an hour later
Restaurant was average but unorganised and food was just warm.
Evening entertainment was mostly geared towards younger children not great for older kids.
Arcades were far too loud.
A park nearer the camping pitches would be great.
An electric hook up on each pitch would be better or let people know they need longer wires as we unfortunately couldn’t make use of the electric even though we had paid for it as our cable was too short.

Liked Pizza was lovely! It was nice to be walking distance from a shop. The toilets and showers for the tenting area were very good and cleaned everyday.
The surrounding area is lovely, very picturesque, especially on a clear day! The beach is a walk down the road which is really handy!
The guy running the camping part was lovely and very accommodating when I asked to be near the toilets and next to my friend who was also there.
Disliked The service was awful. We went into the Fish Box and as we were waiting we were being told that they have known for being extremely slow. We stood inside waiting to be acknowledged for a good 10-15 minutes and nothing so we left. We ended up having pizza but even that was a 45 minute wait!

Powered grass campsite
Liked It's nice to come to holiday park by the coast and find facilities that are not just modern, but well looked after and maintained. Everything was very close and easy to access, which anyone who has kids will know, is extremely helpful.
Disliked When we arrived we got told that we could just pick any pitch we liked. I feel this is an error as it increases the risk of disagreements, especially over electric hookup, as not every pitch has it.
Just tell us which pitch is ours, then there's no potential for arguments.

Relaxing break, with enough to do when wanted
Powered grass campsite
Liked Large and spacious. Facilities clean. Food at on sight pub was ok, staff friendly. Local village walkable distance, locals very friendly and had a really nice meal at the Cumberland, and was not far from Solway holiday village. Good site for families with children, although we didn’t have children with us, also dog friendly.
Disliked Only complaint, there was nowhere to hang clothes or sit the in showers, even in disabled toilet/shower.
