We just stayed for 3 nights and what a wonderful experience. Showers and toilets was very clean for my expectation. It very close to the town so we can hop in the cars and get our takeaway and shopping for every day stuff. 3 mins walk to the beach which is amazing so we dont have to worry about changing, parking and all the headache. Our 7 y/o son loves the whole 3 days and having the hire firepit and the site was so kid friendly. Very well organised and amazing value for money. We will definitely make this yearly trip.

Came for a last minute short break. Site is lovely, perfect location to the beach just a few mins walk. Great views overlooking the sea and into Portsmouth from the campsite. Can get breakfast baps and pizza onsite. Staff are lovely. Have showers/loos/washing up points. Nice to wake up to pheasants outside your tent. Few mins drive from the village where theres tesco and sainsbury as well as some takeaways. Will definitely be back again.

Had a lovely stay here this weekend. Good views from the site. Good facilities, not a fan of the pit style toilets but it's camping and I've experienced a lot lot worse. Things I learned that might be useful to know: The gate shuts at 22:30, meaning if you go out. You will be locked out. The nearest safe place to park is about a mile away, so don't get caught out. Obviously you're there to camp etc and driving a car past people's tents is a bit noisy so I understand, just a tiny bit annoying if you want to do something that finishes later. Pitches aren't marked out, which I liked but it's first come first serve. So get down there earlier in the day or risk awkwardly trying to find a spot at an edge and praying you don't have to be the first to pitch up in the middle haha. This is quite a familial camp site, I would imagine you might encounter some issues if you wanted to have a late night outside your tent. There seemed to be quite regular patrols of the tents throughout the night, probably to check for fires but it seemed like for noise too. The beach is not as nice at high tide, no surprise but I still found it to be nice enough even then. It does have private beach access, it's not too busy and it's lovely being right by the sea camping. I would recommend this place to stay with the above in mind.

I cannot deny its a beautiful location, we enjoyed having easy access to the beach and views across Solent. BUT...the eco toilets were the worst I have ever experienced! Basically a giant bin full of excrement that warms up during the day creating an eye watering, throat catching stench that makes them a health hazard. No sawdust provided to cover it with, so it was just a huge pile of steaming poo.
