Highly recommended for someone wanting to get close to nature!
Disliked: Just one group of young people drinking and being rowdy into the night held it back from from being the perfect camping experience.

Liked: stunning location
relaxed attitude
lovely hosts
no pitches - park where you like
fires allowed
great facilities
lovely owners
dog friendly
huge sense of space
Disliked: It would be great if the directions told you to avoid the very steep corner up to the site. My friend damaged her van on that corner. There was no sign on the road to the site and our Sat Navs sent us both down the hill to that nasty corner.
Quite a bit of rubbish left by other campers. Small bits of plastic wrapping etc. Concerned that rubbish will end up in the sea.
