Réponse du gestionnaire : Hi Debbie, thank you for your review ☺️🏕️ I am however, a tad confused 🤔 We have 2 hot, gas powered, showers with copious amounts of lovely hot water which are free of charge. There is also 3 sinks, 2 are for washing up & another for face & teeth 🪥 😁 not sure how the showers were missed as they are large, wooden cubicles on the right hand side of the field. We're glad that you enjoyed the Sionna welcome 🤗

A aimé : Very nice spacious field with lots of choice where to camp. We really enjoyed borrowing the fire pit and they were really generous with the wood. Also enjoyed the coffee in the morning! Lovely dog friendly stay.

Réponse du gestionnaire : Thanks so much Liz, we're happy that you enjoyed Sionna Camping 🏕️

A aimé : Fab location near a pub that serves yummy food and less than 10 minutes drive from Avon beach. Nice quiet, flat campsite with plenty of space, clean toilets, hot showers and the nice addition of live music on Saturdays, a bar/ coffee van and fire pits for toasting marshmallows. We are first time campers (other than camping at festivals) and had a great weekend with our 3 year old. We definitely plan to return next summer.

Réponse du gestionnaire : Thank you for your lovely review Sarah,,, ☺️ It was great to meet you guys & we'll look forward to welcoming you next year 🏕️

A aimé : Decent enough I, welcome was friendly & polite which is always a good start. The field seemed to drink up the rain water pretty quick (very impressive l must say!) Porter loo's were fairly adequate and clean to be fair to em'. Showers, decent enough (clean enough, warm water). Sinks for washing up and a separate tap/sink for drinking water. Other visitors decent enough, no dramas on site during the 2 night's we stayed. Drivers sensible, also coffee served in the morning (didn't go for the evening music and beer as we were out most of the day until late evening). I did however notice a little doggy-doo next to the car where we pitched up but just the one given the walking between our tent & the wash facilities/toilets so happy enough to have cleaned it up without the need to say owt. This is my/our fourth camping trip since 2020/21, Sionna takes 3rd place out of 4 with a rating of 4****/5 :-)

N'a pas aimé: Doggy-doo (it happens), no biggy Porta-loo's but that's down to personal preference I guess More good than bad, I arrived happy I left happy!

A aimé : The field was spacious, plenty large enough for the Bank Holiday crowds. The location is pleasant and easy to find. Check-in was easy and we were made to feel very welcome. With easy access to Bournemouth, Sandbanks and the New Forest it's a fantastic base for a weekend or weeks stay. One of our favourite things was a pub less than 10 minutes down the road which had live music and a welcoming 'locals' vibe. The campsite also had live music on Saturday which was great and makes it standout compared to other campsites. There was a real 'coffee machine' coffee on sale on site which was a massive plus as well - another great plus. The toilets were mostly clean and if it wasn't for the Bank Holiday would have been emptied before they began to smell and become full. It's a rural cheap campsite for £20 a night - not much to argue about for the price. If you want a real toilet block, more than three showers and one hot water tap for washing up pay more for the privilege. If this is a must for you then look elsewhere!

N'a pas aimé: It's a cheap campsite so you can't argue with the facilities - however, I did dislike the the portaloo's after four days. They were presumably not emptied because of the Bank Holiday and I am sure (looking at the other reviews) the site owners to will make this clear in response to this review. My shower was lukewarm at best and there was only one 'hot' water sink which had no hot water either time I did wash up. This is the main reason why I won't be returning but for £20 it's a good site and the owners were really nice. I am sure other people had hot water and I did try and shower/wash up at 8am so perhaps would have had better luck at less busy times. All in all - as I have said - for £20 a night it's a really good site but for me I would prefer to pay more (perhaps double?) for a proper shower block, numerous sinks, and definite hot water. If you aren't as picky as me then most of these dislikes won't apply to you.

Réponse du gestionnaire : Thank you for your review,,, all valid points, hope you find somewhere wonderful for you next time 🏕️☺️

A aimé : The site had basic but appropriate facilities for the price point. LOADS of space and although portaloos they were clean and well looked after. The bar area was basic but done in a festival style which was great. Most of all the owners / managers were great, friendly accommodating and couldn't have been nicer. When we asked if it was OK to leave out tent the day we were leaving they said just leave it as long as you want and go and have a nice time at the beach. Made our last day much more relaxing - ended up striking camp at 6PM.

N'a pas aimé: Showers could have been warmer and slightly exposed.
