We've just arrived home after a two night stay at the site, using the touring section of the park. What a great little site, well positioned with great views. A short walk to the beautiful beaches, crossing the golf course. The staff were very welcoming and helpful. The washing and cleaning facilities were first class, a bit windy for crazy golf this time, but we will be back for a shot.
One night in September

This is a lovely site. From the welcome when you arrive to the spacious pitches, everything works. 8 amazing clean bathrooms, each with a shower, loo and sink, laundry facilities, mini-golf etc. It's all really well looked after and very clean.
