Liked: Not much at all other than unlimited space for pitch.
Disliked: Toilets/shower block either not working quite old. Felt unmanaged threwout. Party till gone 12am / domestic arguments with loud music, alcohol and whatever else... ongoing till 4.45 am. Electric bike being rode in-between tents with young children playing. Not being managed. Playground equipment not sturdy. Felt more suited to adult only activities not family trips.

Liked: Price per night. Beaches not far
Disliked: Tents are allowed to pitch up wherever, the area isn’t that big and people were selfish with the angling of tents. The toilets always had no toilet paper and limited soap, and not the cleanest, only 1 shower.

Liked: The area.
Disliked: Dirty WC Dirty Showers Never saw any staff during our visit gates open from early morning until late at night. Be very careful moving around site with your caravan as it is very narrow. Others have hit the WC we were OK thanks to another holiday maker warning us. Kids running a muck spraying water everywhere from the waste water area, kids running over the hedges. Kids trying to break the swing set

Liked: Nothing.
Disliked: The campsite is poorly run, not clean or well maintained at all. Toilets are absolutely filthy, electricity kept going off. There was a huge problem with the older children that live on the site who thought it was funny to go around bullying the younger ones. They were vaping in the park and being nasty and aggressive to the point one of them broke my sons scooter. The owners did nothing about all of this and would not offer any compensation or refund. I would not recommend this site to anyone especially with young children. Many people left and lost there money because they refused to stay at this poorly run filthy campsite. Don't waste your money visiting here. Pay extra and stay somewhere decent and clean.

Liked: Terrible experience
Disliked: - teenagers who lived on site bullied several children over the week we stayed including my children. Throwing children in bushes, pushing my 3 year old daughter. Doing offensive signs to the children in the park. Teenagers vaping sitting in the park (children who live on site) Swearing at my children Pushing children off of bikes Toilet area was terrible no necessities such as toilet roll so had to buy own. Women’s shower (only one) didn’t lock. Teenage girls who live on site following men into the toilet area - pitches were over crowded, people were having to pitch on the rocks/gravel. - several families left and found new accommodation - No WiFi as stated on pitch up Terrible holiday

Liked: Location, staff nice, they’re clearly trying to improve it all but…
Disliked: Noisy, squishy, no room to sit out, toilet block poor - dirty with 1 shower only, tents should be separate from caravans not mixed in, a bit expensive for what is a budget site, fresh water filling point disgusting - dirty, filling hose left on floor in with waste water, elsan point was also disgusting. Very sorry but it wasn’t for us.
