Positiv The location was beautiful and there was lots of space on the pitch. You could have open fires which was good.

Negativ We have just spent our minibreak with you at your holme next to sea campsite and I have been asked to review my experience. We were encouraged to move our booking by daily emails and texted prior to our arrival giving us the impression you had overbooked the original campsite or something. The infrastructure at the site was totally inadequate, bordering on dangerous from a health and sanitation point of view. For a start there was no drinking water available and although bottled water was provided this was not always available. There was no light in the toilet and the water supply for handwashing and flushing was at best intermittent. There was only one toilet for each gender and 1 shower for the whole site which meant there were long waits at times. Furthermore there was no facility provided for washing up cooking pots etc which has always been available on the countless campsites I have been on over the years. Added to this we feel we paid a premium price our camping experience.One night we paid £70 and our whole mini break cost £167 which is a lot.
I suggest, if your campsite is not yet ready to be in use, then don't take campers on it.

Positiv The staff were extremely friendly and the beach and well stocked shop are both close.

Negativ The pitches are tiny and as it was a bank holiday weekend we felt cramped. 2/4 sinks had hot water and due to busyness the shower we used was blocked more than once and on one visit the loo roll had run out. I think most of these issues were due to volume on a bank holiday but the pitch sizes would be better doubled!

Positiv Likes

The location - we walked with a painfully slow toddler to the beach in 5 minutes

The consideration gone into fire safety and facilities

Nigel (he is as lovely as everyone says)

The dogs and chickens

I had good phone signal on ID mobile

The size and orientation of the pitch, private and spacious but lovely opportunities to socialise if you wanted to (we had a lovely time with our neighbours)

The regular and thorough cleaning of the facilities each morning. People are a bit gross overnight but this does not reflect the campsite's standards.

The relaxed atmosphere of the site as a whole

The fact you can cheekily nip over to park Dean and use their shop

Nigel had considerately put families with young children near the facilities, and people who were likely to keep different hours, at the other end

I carefully read the reviews about broken glass, and was mindful of it. Whilst I could see what the reviews are talking about, they are over-egging the situation. It's of no concern, and this is from a POV of a toddler mum.

Yes there is one broken down caravan but if thats what you're spending your time looking at, you're missing out on a lot. It really doesn't detract from the site

Negativ Though there was plenty to love here, we felt it was over priced.

At a more reasonable price we'd book again in a heartbeat.

Saying that, it was fully booked, so I guess it just is what it is

Positiv Great location, very chill camspite with quick responses by telephone. Really helpful and kind staff. Thought the toilets were great and great washing up area. Lots of space. Great that you could have open fires. Really quick walk to the beach.
Very easy to get to without a car. We got a train and then a bus and it was very easy. Short walk from the bus stop and buses are regular.

Negativ A couple of the showers needed the plugs unblocked or something as they did flood but even just a sign to warn you of this so that clothes are not left on the floor would be great.
Very expensive for what it was as very minimal facilities.

Positiv It was peaceful and calm just what we wanted

Negativ Would have been nice to be given some takeaway delivery leaflets as nowhere local to get a meal apart from a beach cafe that was shut when we arrived
