Liked: The site was beautiful very well kept grounds and the view over the hedges of the sea was very nice. Not to mention the facilities which were unbelievable for a campsite and by far the best I’ve seen. Could not recommend lower Harlyn sights anymore. Also it’s amazing just how close it is located to Harlyn bay, merely a 10 minute walk down to the bay from the site. Also to note, owner James was an absolute gentleman and a great chap very welcoming and helpful. (Perfect place to catch some stars too, weather dependant of course)

Liked: The owner was very welcoming and friendly. Toilet and shower facilities were very clean. Very peaceful and Dog friendly. Short walk to the village for groceries and 10 a minute walk to Harlyn beach which you can also walk to the to the other surrounding beaches via the coastal paths. Stayed for a couple of days but was well worth the travel. The dog loved it! Will we be definitely coming back soon!

Liked: The campsite was extremely quiet and peaceful with views of the sea, incredible sunset and a short walk to the beach! The facilities on site were also lovely with several nice toilets and the most incredible working hot showers! BBQs are allowed so that was very lovely in the evening and the campsite owner James was very friendly, welcoming and helpful!
