Liked: A short break over the Easter period. We came for 2 nights but didnt feel ready to leave. The site is a great size and spaced out lovely. The toilets/showers are cleaned every day, bins emptied & toliet rolls topped up etc. Shower was great, although there's a small fee it was absolutely worth it. The owner is very friendly and likes to have a chat and make sure everyone is okay.
The views are amazing, its very peaceful, relaxing and we will definitely be back in future.

Liked: This is a lovely little camp site the owner is very easy going and good to have a chat with everything you need is on site hook up electric and water and the waste and toilet is only a short walk away the views are special and whistling sands is only 7 miles up the rd one of the most stunning beaches in the UK for shopping there is a premier about a mile down the rd and they sell most of what you might need if you are lucky on a clear night the stars in the sky are something else overall very easy going relaxed camp and great links for the rest of the peninsula give it a go you wont regret it
Disliked: Having to leave back to work haha.

Liked: Nice Quite Location, Views Stunning
Drainage on a Grass pitch is the best i have seen
Disliked: Wifi advertised but none available , No washing up Facility's but was advertised
Only one sink in the men's shower block and one in the Ladies
Nice site but very Very Exposed to the weather due to it's location
The Big one !!!
As a responsible dog owner part of being a responsible dog owner is picking your dogs Poo up !
There were 2 dogs that ever day came round our Van and pooed , I had to pick it up as i could not leave it where it was
There was a Jack Russel and a French bull dog , luckily they were both very friendly as my Griffon was upset with the being in and around my Awning. My Griffon alerted to the dogs present before we saw them
Some one else has commented in a review they are the "Site Owners Dogs",
If you have site rules stating pick up dog poo then the owner should do the same
Keep them in a fenced of Garden area
I feel sorry for people who do not have dogs having to cope with dog poo around the field

From the manager: I don't think you've been on other sites around here, where they have 4 showers, 2 sinks, and over 40 caravans. Maybe you should pop in to one some day, and have a look. As the site is being upgraded, it will have washing up facilities for next season. I apologize to you for the damn dogs, but they don't belong to me. The local council have been informed.
Great site!
