Summary AI-generated from Pitchup.com customer reviews




















I really liked this campsite & would stay there again.
Primitive grass tent campsite
Liked Lovely Campsite in nature & fresh sea air. Great Location in a quiet area & a short walk to the beach. Stunning views from the Campsite as it’s high up. The owner was a really nice guy, very welcoming & helpful. Basic facilities but very reasonably priced overall. Cheap & good firewood for sale.
Disliked Facilities were basic but fine & I can’t complain for the price & location.

The site is very basic. Don't expect much and you will be fine.
Primitive grass tent campsite
Liked Close to the beach.
Disliked Toilets and showers. Toilets were inadequate and kept blocking. Only three available and on some occasions only one usable. I did notice that the issues were addressed quickly, however they continued to get blocked again.
Only two showers. Very very basic. Glad I bought along my flip-flops

Great value for nice people who like a natural feel campsite.
Primitive grass tent campsite
Liked Relaxing and natural. Allowed fire pits. Running water and toilets. Not for people who like kellingheath and clipsbey but that suits me as I only need somewhere to pitch my tent. Felt safe and nice people on site this weekend. Everyone respectful of being quiet at night.

AVOID. Like a scrapyard.
Primitive grass tent campsite
Liked Proximity to Trimington beach
Disliked Entrance is like a scrapyard. First thing I did when we arrived (a 4 hour trip) was burst into tears and check availability on other sites (there was none).
Toilets - there are only 3, one was permanently out of order and another didnt flush.
Washing up area is disgusting, concrete "sink" within inadequate drainage and no hot water, full of filth.
Showers are down a very long dirt track and are filthy. However its the only hot water on site.
NEVER AGAIN.

Will visit again as it’s quiet, real, close to beach. A real Gem.
Primitive grass tent campsite
Liked Welcoming, friendly and peaceful. Can feel the stress of life slide off your shoulders. Nothing fancy which was a bonus, making you feel even closer to nature and your ancestry.
Disliked Showers could do with some attention. Although getting close to nature without any frills is good for the soul. Having a few bugs under your feet in the shower was a little too far.

Primitive grass tent campsite
Liked Peaceful setting, helpful owner and great location. Facilities are basic yet functional but bearing in mind how much you are paying you can’t expect luxury.
Disliked Nothing.
