Primitive grass campsite
Liked: Good facilities, nice fenced dog area, owners were lovely and helpful, easy to find. Walkable to the coast path.
Disliked: Limited non electric pitches on flatish ground. Was moderately busy so had to camp on a slope.

Liked: We only stayed for one night but it was absolutely wonderful, Tracey was really friendly and very helpful. The kids really loved the play park and it was so quiet and peaceful. There was place to wash the dishes in a hot water and the bathrooms were good so what else could you possibly wish for.

Liked: The airfield was brilliant, our daughter loves planes so this was a really big win. There were some larger shower rooms with a toilet which were great for families and the shop provided good basics. Everything was kept very clean and the owners were very friendly.
