What customers say
Great family spot with loads of activities & pools. Staff friendly. Toilets/showers mostly clean but a bit old. Pitches gravelly/uneven. Good value & location, but booking pools and extra costs were a bother for some.

Fun action packed holiday park
Electric gravel touring pitch
Liked Me and my daughters had so much fun, this was our return visit. The staff were amazing as usual. I booked lots of the activities, my girls had the best time. Plus it's a short drive to the beach.
Disliked Don't enjoy waking up early to book swimming. It's a shame you can't book on a system on arrival.

The best campsite, great value for money, would recommend, near beach
Fully-serviced gravel touring pitch
Liked I stayed here with my 2 girls, I decided to go on a road trip from Essex, to Bristol, Devon and all the way to Cornwall. We loved it here so much we had to return on our travels back home. Amazing staff, the facilities were great, there was so much to do for my girls. Steve was fantastic, as a single mum I find towing the caravan and pitching a little daunting. Steve was fantastic on arrival he explained where my pitch was, including where all the facilities were. When leaving again Chris was so lovely I mentioned about coming back as the girls loved it so much, his line of work was above and beyond what a great asset you have their. When it come to booking the activities Aiden and Ben were fantastic.
Disliked The only thing I didn't like was getting up early to book swimming. If there was a booking system like the other activities it would be much better.

Not for us due to the pitch surroundings.
Fully-serviced gravel touring pitch
Liked Plenty of facilities on site,places to eat,bars,shop.
Disliked Pitches resembled a car park. Very dusty especially with other people speeding up and down the pitch area. We had a fully serviced pitch which had hedges defining its boundaries, but many other pitches didn't so they were very close together. No record of our booking on arrival, when they checked not been confirmed even though we booked and paid through Pitch up. Not sure who was at fault but very distressing as they had to struggle to find us a pitch! Unable to use the swimming pool for the whole weekend as nowhere in our welcome pack did it explain you needed to book tickets at reception! When we did try we were amazed to see people returning tickets from the previous day unused, so selfishly they took them just in case, and by doing so deprived other people a chance!!
Also, paid for the wifi but still kept dropping out so not worth the money in our opinion.
