Primitive grass campsite
Liked: very low maintenance, quiet site, close to the beach.
Disliked: Was instructed to check in on arrival, however there was no where to check in and no one on site.
Toilets had no loo roll, hand roll and were not cleaned for the entirety of our 48 hour stay.
The site was clearly not ready for the beginning of season, with a tip run needed. Not worth £18 per night.

A perfect place for someone who is travelling with young children.

Primitive grass campsite
Liked: It was peaceful as hardly anyone there luckily. The weather was good to us! The farm animals were cute. We didn’t see anyone.
Disliked: Unfortunately no paper hand towels in the ladies for the weekend we were there.
Paid £10 for our dog-more than for the 3 of us!

Liked: Absolutely nothing
Disliked: Dirty untidy entrance
Dirty uncleaned bar/clubhouse
Toilets and showers were the most disgusting unhygienic cesspit I have ever seen.
The photographs used to advertise the site are old and very misleading.
This site was so bad that we left after one night having paid for three.

Liked: Quiet , the pub and band were good.
Disliked: Entrance to the site was very run down , not very welcoming and appealing, a clean up and tidy up would be good..
Grass could benefit from a cut as it was a long way to walk in wet grass to the loo from the bottom of the field.

Liked: We absolutely adored this little site. The staff were extremely helpful and the site was extremely peaceful. The toilets and showers were clean. The entertainment was fun and the bar and food was awesome for the cost. The perfect place to camp if you're after a chilled out, off grid adventure with some great beaches close by. Definitely planning on visiting again!

Liked: Getting followed by a curious alpaca at the entrance.
Friendly staff
Budget friendly
Cheap and cheerful
Disliked: You do get what you pay for in this campsite
Unhygienic bathrooms and showers. If guests treat the facilities with respect I don’t think this would be so much of an issue.
security was questionable due to some “residents” decided to break through the trees like Jason from Friday the 13th. This Was a good touch, but won’t recommend for future bookings. as we had children with us. All in all you get what you pay for. If you expect the holiday inn standard for under £80 a week then you looking at the wrong site

From the manager: Thankyou for the review,you may have noticed that the facilities were being worked on and upgraded,both mens and womens toilets are open now and the showers are getting an upgrade too. I'm guessing by 'residents' you mean our animals as we don't have resident humans! Our sheep and goats did manage to knock a fence down and escape around the site a bit but they are all harmless.
