2.5/5
Called to make a booking and all was well.
No need to pay just turn up and we’ll do it then. Turned up and needed cash, lucky to have enough as they didn’t tell us they wouldn’t take cards.
Rules on just about everything, posted everywhere.
You can borrow stuff for cooking, at a cost. Some needed a deposit but having used all our cash we did with what we had.
There are two toilet/shower blocks. One is great the other is not great at all. Found this out after having a cold “pits and bits” wash. Explains why the reviews are so mixed!
Did I mention the rules... Long list supplied when you pay for your site and individual rules posted throughout... the atmosphere is pretty uptight.

3.5/5
Small camp with good facilities.
Pleasant surrounds and quiet.
Kitchen was a little small for the number of people who were there for our two nights but not unusable.
No issues at all and would come back.

4.5/5
Lovely quiet little spot.
A little off the beaten track. Close to a good swimming beach even if the water was a bit cold.
Facilities clean and hosts welcoming.
