If you don't feel like cooking, there are also a couple of charming pubs in the village, just a five minute stroll away.

Hidden gem of a campsite

We were so pleased to discover this little gem of a campsite. We had a great 3 night stay. The pitch was a good size and had plenty of room for our large tent and two cars. There was a wooden picnic bench on the pitch and a washing up station, toilets and showers nearby. The pitches were far enough apart to feel you had your own private area but it felt safe and friendly. There are numerous beaches a short drive away as well as places to shop. The owner was especially helpful with freezing ice blocks and got us out of a scrape by lending us jump leads when our car battery was flat. We took two young children and they thoroughly enjoyed running around the safe grassy site which had a football and games area within view of the pitches. We would recommend this site for all ages.
Brilliant stay

Stayed for a night to break up a long journey! Beautiful outlook over the water. Nice level pitches although no hard standings. Was a little tricky to find (don't use the postcode!) some directions or a bigger sign might be helpful in the future but the owner was responsive on the phone and able to direct us to the entrance.
