A great stay
Primitive grass tent campsite
Liked James is a great host and always attentive and around if needed. It is a lovely secluded pitch away from the busy holiday parks. Great views and my kids loved playing in the middle with other kids.
We have been back several times as love the pitch, area and beach.
