Primitive grass and earth RV campsite
Liked: The location of this site was amazing with incredible views. Reasonably priced for a basic site. Toilets always had paper and sanitizer.
Disliked: The field is sloped. Also there was a huge festival/party in the field next to us.

Liked: Beautiful views and location right on Portland Bill
Disliked: No noise restrictions, so what could have been a calm restful experience ended up with us being subjected to drum and base “music” until 1am
