Fully-serviced concrete slab caravan site (premium)
Liked: Clean, organised, lots of bonus facilities such as book borrowing, games room and wetsuit washing as well as everything you would expect at a touring site. Very friendly welcome when we arrived.
Disliked: Was travelling with my uni age daughter and the site was maybe a bit formal for our tastes, the information sheet provided when we booked made all the rules very clear, but we both felt a little nervous about accidentally doing something ‘wrong’ whilst we were there (we are newbies to motorhoming so that could have been part of the problem for us). Would recommend as it is a great site and you’re guaranteed excellent standards, just maybe a bit too excellent for a couple of quirky oddballs like us!

Liked: Site team had a wet weather plan in place to keep the site open, keep vehicles safe and the ground intact. Good size pitches, clean facilities, hot showers. Nice walk into town via the coastal path. Walk into town via the road not as easy as quite a steep and busy road with few pedestrian pavements.

Liked: Perfect facilities perfectly maintained. This place is beautiful, all the facilities work and are properly maintained and cleaned to the nth degree. The pitches are the most level I've ever encountered: obviously the beautiful grass has been rolled. A great effort was made in horrible weather conditions to preserve the condition of the grass, but without any of the exasperated nastiness one sometimes observes in guardians of grass. I stayed with my 9 year old daughter and miniature dachshund for a rainy week and we were made to feel extremely welcome. My daughter enjoyed the play facilities very much and doggie enjoyed the canine facilities likewise.
