Good spot but road can be a bit noisy.
Toilets are there but can be a bit of a walk depending how many campers there are parked up in each bay.
Right by the beach which is handy though.

Great little spot by the beach.
Toilets and cold showers right there and kept very clean. Rubbish and recycling bins also. Need to get there by 1pm as spaces start to fill up. We were the third camper there, only 6 allowed. We walked into town which was about 45 mins but an easy walk. When we got back there were more than 6 campers there and lots not self contained. I had already taken a photo of our camper before we walked into town in case it got checked on but no one did. Overall a great spot!

4.5/5
Great spot and only a short walk to town.
Lots of signs around the main roads saying no freedom camping though which made us weary. There was 3 campers that night including us and we never got checked on. Toilets are right there and clean. Got quite cold at night so rug up!
