What visitors say
What an amazing campsite!! Wonderful location and great amenities. Showers (20p for 3 minutes - lovely and hot and good pressure) were spotless and well maintained. Our pitch was within view of the lovely beach. Sunsets were breathtaking. Well laid out pitches and so long as everyone follows the instructions given there is plenty of room for everyone. Can’t wait to come back again now we’ve found this treasure!!

Beautiful campsite! The sea view plots are incredible with amazing sunsets. The onsite beach is great to walk the dogs and to see the sunset. Big pitches too. Toilets scattered around the site, but showers are at the entrance only so can be a bit of a walk (and 20p for 3 mins). Absolutely loved our stay, the views were incredible, really memorable stay!

One of the best campsites we have been to. Very relaxed in every way with a really chilled vibe and near to some great days out. Private beach and pretty user friendly. Gets pretty windy at night so make sure you secure your tent.

An absolute treasure. It's a shame they don't care much for the shower areas. Absolutely filthy. As others have mentioned, to get down, it's an adventure. So if you're driving anything bigger than a van, buckle up. The entrance is super tight. It's not for the weak. Also the showers are exact change (20 p), so make sure you bring it or you're out of luck.
