CERTAINLY NOT WHAT WE EXPECTED..MUCH WORSE!! :-( Me and jacob are just back from staying here for 3 days. It was a little busy, so we were allocated a spot just behind the static caravans by a tree directly opposite the large skip!! :-( the ground was good and we were a very short walk from the river where we did a spot of fishing. Arrival was fine and friendly however, I was a little annoyed that they provided no facility or assistance with allowing me to plug in the air pump to pump up our mattress, I didn't think this would be much to ask, but it seems I was asking for the world!! In the end a friendly static owner came to our rescue. The bar was OK, reasonably priced, the arcade jacob loved and was not too pricey and the entertainment was quite good..get in early to get a seat though!!The play park is pathetic!! a filthy sandpit and a plastic dinosaur slide..thats it!! We enjoyed our first day, although found the swearing from some of the kids there very off putting and to top it all the parents said and did nothing!! The showers were cleaned often but could do with being a little bigger as you have to almost stand back in the shower to open the door to get out! as stated before there is no soap, which is annoying when you just want to wash your hands having to take shower gel with you everywhere. The cleaners use bleach in such abundance that it made our eyes water and sting!! We cut our little holiday short because a large family pitched just behind us and stayed up making an absolute racket till 3am ( the warden did nothing although we asked) they were swearing and shouting and at that point around 2am I decided that I did not want my Lad to hear anymore of it and resolved to pack up and come home early ..at 5:30 when a ladies 2 jack russels where barking endlessly...that was our holiday over. There was a bit of dog mess here and there and with the large pile of rubbish as our outlook...overall I was not masively impressed. I wont be going back.
We are relatively new to camping and this had the potential to put us off for life..but I will put it down to experience and look forward to our next trip. We met some nice people and enjoyed taking the bikes down to the seafront for a ride and the weather was OK but I found some of the people holidaying there disrespectful, loud and inconsiderate and as the warden did nothing to assist it is for this reason we will not return...shame because the Chicken curry in the take away was fantastic!! :-)
