What customers say
Great countryside views & beach access, with lovely horses and attentive hosts. Downsides: not enough toilets/showers, poor waste disposal, few amenities, tricky roads, and the bar was sometimes shut.

A rip off, a dump. Avoid!

Liked Nothing
Disliked 1)Receptionist tried to overcharge us
2) showers and toilets were very dirty and there was mould on the ceiling and walls
3) the pitch itself was very ugly dusty and dirty
4) the TAP for drinking water was not usable it sprayed everywhere including over the person trying to use it.
5) the place to throw away rubbish was overflowing with rubbish and flies all over it
6) the washing up area was primitive to say the least
7) the whole campsite was pitch black when the sun went down meaning you couldn't find your way round could trip up and fall down a hole or over an Edge - very dangerous
8) the electric hookup was extremely unsafe it was not meant for outside and was an basic indoor extension lead.
9) the campsite was really an equestrian centre which I thought would be a benefit as I love horses. However the conditions in which the horses were kept was very sad and worrying. Many of the horses were in tiny enclosures with no shelter from the sun and nothing to eat. One had deep wounds!
Overall: I think the owners of the equestrian centre we're just trying to make money on the side and offer campers as little as possible whilst charging too much.
Wild camping would have far exceeded this.

Disliked Le manque de sanitaires. 2 sanitaires pour une dizaine de camping car par jour, il faut jouer des coudes.... les WC sont avec la douche dans la même pièce.

Liked Paisible
Disliked L’accueil , à part nous demander de payer , aucune information ou explication données.
Il a fallu retourner demander où se trouvaient les toilettes, l’eau et le coin vaisselle (1 seul évier)
Aucune info concernant les horaires d’ouverture du bar ( fermé pdt les 2 jours où nous y étions) , ni concernant les plages à proximité, les chemins de randonnées, les balades à cheval …
Les toilettes (2 wc et 2 douches = 2 petites salles d’eau , donc si vous utilisez les wc , vous bloquez la douche, donc ça bouchonne! )sont situées en fait ds le centre équestre.
Aucun service pour vidanger les eaux usées, les poubelles sont déposées en vrac.
En fait il s’agit d’une aire de camping-car sans les commodités, à 29€ la nuit (2 adultes , 1 chien, 1 fourgon)
Paiement PayPal sans facture.
À part la « vue mer » à l’horizon lointain et la tranquillité, rien n’est vraiment appréciable. On aurait souhaité pouvoir prendre au moins un café ou l’apéro.
On a réservé 3 nuits, partis au bout de 2
Trop loin de tout (à moins d’avoir des vélos électriques ou de bouger son fourgon tous les jours)

Acceso imposible, un baño doméstico para 20 parcelas, una basura
Powered gravel site
Liked Absolutamente nada
Disliked La entrada una pesadilla de toboganes de caminos con inclinaciones imposibles de puedas sueltas, quemé las dos ruedas delanteras del coche y nadie se preocupó de salir a ayudarnos. No se puede pagar con tarjeta y nadie te avisa previamente. El wifi no llega a conectar nunca deben tener un router doméstico metido en un cajón de chapa. Hay como 20 parcelas para las cuales existe un baño doméstico con un retrete, un lavabo y una ducha de 60x60 con una tristeza de agua. Y otro baño que abren de 16 a 20 igual, vamos para ir hay que sacar número. Además está 2 o 3 bancales por debajo un paseo entre polvo y mierda de caballo a lo que apesta todo el camping los días que no hay viento. Para fregar igual una pila con agua fría y encimera de chapa en mitad del campo que además para freír un huevo eso al sol se pone… En recepción se supone que están solo de 16 a 20 pero solo los vimos 2 días de 5 y la comunicación no fue fácil para solicitar ayuda para sacar nuestra caravana de allí. Finalmente nos dijeron que el día de la salida a las 16. Pero se presentaron a las 11 sin avisar, recogimos todo como pudimos por salir de ese infierno de mierda de caballo. Cuando llegó el coche para sacarnos muy majo nos dijo que había pasado muchas otras veces, pero desde el camping NUNCA se nos ofreció ayuda pasa entrar ni salir. Un verdadero desastre y una ansiedad brutal durante esos 5 días

Liked ¡Un lugar increíble para desconectar! Pasamos tres noches en nuestra furgoneta y la experiencia fue inmejorable. El trato por parte de los dueños fue excelente, siempre atentos y amables. Las vistas desde el camping son preciosas y el ambiente de hípica le da un toque muy especial. Nos encantó poder ver a los caballos y jugar con los perros, y el gatito bebé era una monada. Las bebidas del bar estaban buenísimas, un detalle que se agradece. Como único punto a mejorar, nos hubiera gustado tener electricidad en las parcelas de arriba. A pesar de eso, todo lo demás fue de 10. ¡Repetiremos sin duda!

Liked Las vistas y la tranquilidad y silencio que había.
Disliked La jefa, bastante antipática que no saluda, y la entrada de tierra que tiene. La entrada tiene una subida de tierra en la que el coche patina como no lleves velocidad suficiente y no sea un 4x4. La jefa vino a decirme de muy malas maneras que no podía ir así de rápido (iba a 25km/h).
