Unwelcoming site
Nice clean site
We stayed here in March just as the season starts to open. On first arrival the staff were very helpful and explained everything well. We booked a hard standing plot which had plenty of space for a awning and a car. The ground is very hard so anybody wanting to put up a awning may need metal pegs and a decent mallet. We was allocated plot 24 which is the closest you can get to the waste/water points and also the ablutions. So we were a little concerned about the noise levels but it was actually still quiet which was nice. The showers are toilets were spotless and seemed to be cleaned 2-3 times a day. The showers were clean and powerful so we used those instead of the caravan shower. The beach is a matter of minutes away from the pitches. A 2 min walk from the hard standing and a 30 second walk from the grass pitches. Once you forfeit your caravan club members card you are given a gate key for the beach key which leads straight onto a flat promenade. The beach is dog friendly and was very quite. This could be due to the time of year we went. A short walk away on the beach front there are two places to get food. A greasy spoon and somewhere to order a range of things including afternoon tea and alcohol. A 5 min walk away from the beach and you will find a spar shop, post office, subway takeaway, Chinese takeaway and a Indian takeaway. There is a fish and chip shop but this was closed being refurbed at the time. Also for kids beach accessories there is a bits and bobs shop selling buckets/spades, wind breakers ect. My only few little problems were the site does not allow children to be children. Yes there is a park. But no ball games, scooters and dogs must be exercised off site. It’s not a big issue as you are close to the beach. The site can be busy with cars and people so I understand the logic behind the decision so we accepted that. The other issue we had was our dog cut her pad on one of the many broken plastic awning pegs on the pitch. So we had to clear the pitch of shards of plastic. She recovered in the caravan but meant we were restricted for our stay which was a shame. All in all a good clean site and we will visit again. We will just be more careful with the broken pegs and we will be trying the grass pitch next time.
