Electric hardstanding touring pitch (large)
Liked: Clean site Large pitches
Disliked: Shop (described as local village shop) was just the office with just had some very basic items, bread and eggs really. very expensive, and very small, we wished we had taken more supplies - wine was £11.25 a bottle, and tasted like a £3-£4 bottle... and didn't have a huge choice of anything fresh, ie salad. Just emergency items really. The write up on the page was for the sister site of Maidens Beach is on the same page so I think we thought that was what we were getting. The beach we had nearby was not sandy, shoal, rocks, stones, seaweed and rotten sludge running from the sheep/cow fields. Also unpleasant yellow foam running along the shoreline. No dog walks nearby. We had to run the gauntlet with traffic as also the roads nearby didn't have footpaths the whole way along so we were walking in the road. The showers were too close to the toilet cubicles so if they were being 'used' was very smelly. Family rooms, ie shower and toilet in a separate closed room where you would have privacy would have been better. The coastal trail was dangerous, taking you through cow fields where there were loose cows that would walk aggressively towards you, at one point we had to run into the sea to escape them... cows have been known to trample people and kill them so I am very wary of cow herds more than I used to be. Very difficult trail, not suitable for 'walks', more for seasoned, experienced, very fit and able hill/mountain hikers.

Electric grass touring pitch
Liked: Did not stay even for one night.
Disliked: Arrived at site after long journey when warden arrived we were given a very small pitch right outside the reception area on a small strip of grass looking right into a mobile home. I could not even site my caravan as the the pitch was far too small ( I have since been told this area is normally used for tents) By this time there was no one about to assist and it was raining heavy. We decided to leave and find another site which we did thankfully. We are £100 out of pocket but we could not have stayed spending all weekend looking into a mobile home window. So beware every picture does not tell the truth.

Liked: The facilities were spotlessly clean and the pitches were a good size with lovely views and all hard standing and level. We had pitch 7 that was very private and overlooked the countryside. Direct access to the beach and great walks direct from the camp.
