A great spot for a peaceful break, with spotless facilities, lovely showers, and friendly hosts. Perfect for exploring the coast, you'll love the horses too. Good value, though pitches can get a bit mucky. We'd definitely go back!

Electric optional grass pitch
Liked The place was very quiet just what we wanted .The showers, toilet and washing up area was spotless. The only fault was you picked your own place and the owner never introduced herself. You had to find everything yourself.
