Gostou Good location with lovely beach nearby. Cafe on site - basic meals with good portion size & great prices.
Some friendly staff.
Comfortable beds.

Não gostou Cleanliness questionable here..

Visited on site cafe- noticed previous guests bedsheets just rolled up & left on edge of table. Stains/ old food was wiped away using used bedsheets in front of our eyes ! No cleaning / disinfecting whatsoever apparent.
The shower/ toilet facilities extremely basic. On visiting- both toilets had been used but not flushed. Thousands of mosquitoes / flies everywhere inside, didn't use shower as didn't want to risk being eaten alive. Toilet visit & hand wash was quickest in history.

The amount of flies (inside) the pod was disgusting & puzzling ! Yes, was aware we were basically in the middle of a field in the countryside, we do stay at lots of glamping places/ pods and always go prepared armed with bug spray BUT ! A few flies are expected of course, however we did keep our door & window closed yet the flies kept appearing constantly (inside) which was baffling. ALL night.. we were inundated, hardly slept due to swotting them. We counted 46 ! It was as though they were crawling out of the woodwork/ breeding under the beds?? Ridiculous. If we hadn't both had a few drinks we would have just gone home.
No lovely morning awakening or a leisurely breakfast for us ... woke up, packed up & left. Couldn't get back home quick enough. Sadly our 'relaxing' break was extremely disappointing on this occasion.

Gostou Small park on site for up to 13 year old, as well as bouncy castles & a games room.
Clean toilets & showers (50p per use - i didnt have any change so staff let me bank transfer to get some).
Washing up room and washing machine (didn't use but takes money too).
Very quiet & peaceful area, and everyone was respectful of the quiet periods (10pm til 7am). Could hear traffic going past on the main road occasionally but wasn't intrusive or overbearing.
Nearby fields had horses but I also saw a fair few rabbits in the early morning too.
Staff were very friendly, approachable and laid back.
Welcome pack was very detailed & included things to do locally.
We brought our own food but the menu of the tea room wasn't too limited, including a few vegetarian options.

(I can't rate the WiFi as im not sure if there was one, we didnt attempt to connect or use it but i thought that was a plus and enjoyed the screen free time).

Não gostou The walk to the toilets. Its honestly not that far & by day 2 I was getting into a routine with the walk. But first thing in the morning felt like a mad dash in the cold air.
Unlit paths in places.

Gostou Hardstanding area was peaceful and the best area on the site in my opinion. Nice walk from the site across fields to the beach for a dog walk. We know the area well and had booked as no availability anywhere due to our late booking. It met our needs for a few days. Very friendly staff who couldn't be more helpful. Didn't spend much time on site, it was really a base to get to around due to family being local and its a good base with transport. Site costs are reasonable.

Não gostou Glad we had full facilities in our caravan. Could do with a washing up, toilet area for those that haven't nearer the top end of the site as it's a walk if you've got a bit to carry. Also areas of the site are very tired, some dirty and chemical waste is an issue - was closed off temporarily with instructions to use the toilets. I would have been upset had we paid more, but can also see that with a little more TLC it would be a great site if you have kids as there is stuff for them to do like a park, bouncy castles and a games area, along with a tea room.

Gostou Easy walking distance to the beach

Não gostou Very scruffy site, dirty showers and toilets and only 2 for the whole site. Washing up station was opposite the showers and too far to carry a family of fours washing up. Filthy bouncy castles in the garden of the cafe that absolutely stunk when the kids got off and so many dogs! Barking and growling from the time you go to sleep to waking you up early. Also the ground we were put on was stony and uneven making putting the table up to play games a near on impossibility and the kids had to wear shoes all the time. Also too far to walk to anything and only the main road with no pavement to get anywhere as we were in a camper van with young children. Also the chemical waste point was an old toilet, no lid and was so full so we had to use the toilets to dispose. Disgusting!

Gostou Our stay at this holiday apartment was excellent. The accommodation was clean, bright, and very comfortable, providing everything needed for a relaxing visit. The property itself offers extensive grounds with plenty of facilities, including bouncy castles, a children’s play park, and a welcoming tea room. The staff were exceptionally friendly and attentive throughout our stay. We would be delighted to return in the future and highly recommend this property to others.

Gostou Our stay at South Farm was amazing. There wasn't noise bothering us, it's pretty close from Sutton on Sea(4 minutes drive), with big shops such as Tesco/Lidl at around 15-20 minutes drive. Toilets were as clean as they could be, would benefit from some improvements, but they are more than enough to do your 'jobs' there. Showers are rated at £0.5 per 5 minutes, which it's an amazing rate. There is a games room as well, with billiard which takes 1£ per round, free darts as well. Washing room, with a washing machine which is 3-4£ per round, but there is plenty of hot water to wash all your camping utensils. Food at the tea room is at a pretty decent price, and also tastes good. Camping spaces are big enough for a 5 berth caravan, even for twin axles, and something which isn't mentioned in the ad, because the owners cannot modify it, YOU DON'T NEED TO PAY EXTRA FOR ELECTRICITY. That's included in the price you pay for your stay. We had an amazing time, and we will definetely come back.

Não gostou There isn't good signal, nor any wifi available. HOWEVER, that's not the host's fault, so I am not going to take any stars away from my rating.
