Vertaal (Mogelijk gemaakt door Google Translate )Ik was blij met: Very spacious pitches spread out around the site so they're not right next to each other. Picnic bench and firepit on the pitch was a nice plus. Plenty of toilets around site so you don't have to walk too far to one.

Vertaal (Mogelijk gemaakt door Google Translate )Ik was blij met: I like how the campsite is geared towards sustainability and eco-friendliness. Loved the location and the wildlife, wild flowers, birds and insects, real nature! Walks around the Thames, and East Tilbury which I found to be a welcoming place with good shops and good food at the nearby pub. Thanks for a lovely time and I hope to return before long.

Vertaal (Mogelijk gemaakt door Google Translate )Ik was blij met: •Great location: Easily accessible from London and simple to find with clear directions provided well in advance.
•Helpful management: When our pitch was missing a fire pit, staff responded promptly and directed us to a spare one.
•Scenic setting: Beautiful views of both sunrise and sunset, with a lovely walking path nearby.
•Clean facilities: Toilets were checked regularly and maintained to a good standard.
Ik was niet zo blij met: • Noise from large groups: During our weekend stay, several large groups occupied multiple pitches and were noisy late at night and early in the morning, despite campsite rules. This can be hard to police but did impact the experience.
• Inconsistent showers: While there are three, the water temperature is hard to regulate—either scalding hot or freezing cold.
AVOID

Vertaal (Mogelijk gemaakt door Google Translate )Ik was blij met: Showers were clean, good washing up facilities and nice to have a bench and firepit at each pitch. Nice coastal walks and friendly pub 10 minutes down the road
Ik was niet zo blij met: Owner responded poorly to large group making noise till after 12.30am despite claims of otherwise. Woken up again at 6.30am by the same group the owners claimed they'd ask to leave .Nobody on site to deal with the issues, only person we saw was bombing around the site on a quad bike half heartidly checking the toilets. Toilets in principal are a good idea but if you are a male needing to sit down on them, you either have to hold your genital out the way or have it sit in the trough were the wee goes.
Complained but got the same kind of response you see on some of the reviews on Pitchup. Owner offered us a free stay, but with a site that feels like they are putting in minimum resources to gain as much as they can, why would we take them up on the offer when there is far better out there. Every bit of contact is done via text, eventually blocked the number on our return. The owners response to us saying we'd contact Pitchup up was, " if you was in a holiday resort on a beach you would not get refunded if another guest made a noise",
AVOID !!!

Vertaal (Mogelijk gemaakt door Google Translate )Ik was blij met: We liked the pitches and how they are separated off with long grass. We enjoyed walking along the path from campsite to marshland and view over the docs.

Vertaal (Mogelijk gemaakt door Google Translate )Ik was blij met: The location was lovely, easy to walk to. Fantastic pub near the site and plenty of hiking spots
Ik was niet zo blij met: Could of done with a tap at the other end of the campsite but I know this is a bit difficult to do.
Ah you stuck to your word and gave us a bad review if we did not refund you! No matter, you stayed for two nights and no complaint for your first night. The second night an unannounced group did arrive that had booked 5 separate pitches as any other family would do. They did not book as a group as this is not allowed. On the realisation these people were travelling as one, i personally spoke to them at their pitches to remind them of the site rules and to be respectful to other guests. seeing as they all looked middle aged I did not anticipate a problem. We did get complaints from approx. 9pm onwards and after repeated dialogue with them we asked them to leave. I am not sure what else you could expect us to do in this situation. They did leave the next morning all be it far too early, but they went.
Both I and the other site owner was the ones cleaning the toilets, not on a quad but a utility 4 wheel drive vehicle with a tipper back. We offered you a free night stay as a goodwill gesture although the noisy guests were dealt with as legally possible. We are available 24 hours as you know when you contacted us in the evening.

Liked: Fire pit and picnic bench. Peaceful. Tidy
Liked: The staff and the laidback vibe
Liked: Well maintained and managed site with the owner even checking if everything's alright
Other than asking them to leave, which we did, and they went what more could we do? Hardly possible for us to refund 150 guests because of the actions of a few. Thanks for the review, all the best
