Liked: Toilets and showers were lovely and clean, and site location is amazing. We enjoyed walks on the beach and along the coast directly from the site. One of the nicest places we’ve been in a long time.
Disliked: WiFi would be a great addition, but we didn’t mind not having it 😊

Disliked: No wifi No facility for recycling which means we took bottles, cans, plastic and cardboard home with us. Awkward (one central tap at jaunty angle) to fill water buts.

Liked: We had an amazing beach view, the site is immaculate, well kept and the staff are super friendly. Wild rabbits playing in full view of your rent and it's hard not to put a few bits of veg out for them.
Disliked: Having to leave to return home after such a relaxing break
