What visitors say
Loud! Boy racers and too close to main road. Tokens awkward to get not ideal should be card in this day and age. Dirty overflowing, unemptied litter bins, litter everywhere very disappointed. Half the car park fenced off for no apparent real reason other than workers at harbour or castle no idea no information just fenced off.
