 Realy enjoyed my week on high tide campsite

Close to everything we needed

I know the showers and toilets were out of use the week we were there due to restrictions of the pandemic, it was no problem, we had our own, could manage for a week

Looking forward to booking another week or so really soon.

 Small campsite but ample room,

Right next to the hi tide cafe/amusements,

Cheap and cheerful and right next to the beach,

Had a lovely couple of days and will come again

Reviewer: Daiharding 2 reviews from this member

 This site is ok, for all the attractions of Porthcawl,

we wouldn't stay for more than a couple of nights ourselves as it isn't the best kept site, and the owners should spend some money on the upkeep, instead of extending the site.

Reviewer: Samant 1 review from this member

 Good location to explore the local area, car needed as nearest shop quite a walk and not a safe walk with kids. The site was small but very clean with electric plug in & water.

It’s a rustic field with just water & electricity as long as you understand that’s what your getting it’s great.

 There was nothing to dislike about this site it was brilliant,

Showers and toilets were very clean,

Close to all local attractions, bars, shops and the beach etc.

Staff were amazing as was the free entertainment.

Will be going back for definite.

 Excellent location. Shower plug was blocked, so I was standing in the prevous person shower water.

Only one female toilet in action. Close to amenities. Porthcawl is a lovely town.

 Needs a lot of work to make it nice. It is in a good location. Apart from getting keys did not see any staff on site even then they did not explain about the site.

Reviewer: Maria101 1 review from this member

 We stayed here for 6 nights, the fresh water hose was in the toilet waste which we didn’t notice until last day! I have come home and am really unwell, maybe a coincidence but maybe due to clean water in toilet waste?!

We were allocated a pitch by the see front as my brother is blind and likes to listen to the sea, then got told we couldn’t have it and was put to the back of the campsite.

The toilets were disgusting with urine over the floor and faeces all up the toilet walls. The showers were blocked and didn’t work properly.

Phoned the high tide to let them know an ambulance was entering the site as my dad was rushed to hospital ( they wasn’t interested and said ok! Then put phone down)

Loved porthcawl but this had put us off.

Reviewer: Mrmotorx 89 reviews from this member

 We have just stayed here mid way through our 2018 tour, first impression are poor. First point of contact demanded £20 deposit for barrier key, ok not problem, I had to go back to car and get it which was blocking part of the car park off (wasn't sure we were at the right place). Went back paid deposit and was told to be off site before 12. Noon. I wasn't shown where to go how to get there where the toilets were (PORTA LOO CABINS). Where water was, chemical waste etc was just left to fend for ourselfs.

Once on site we honestly thought it was. A. Travellers. Site. Loads of transit vans etc. How ever it turned out not to be such a bad site in all honestly. Location for beach was great 2 min walk if that pubs. Clubs fun fair. Arcades shops/stalls chinese and kebab stall. Nice walk to treco park on beach 15 mins or 10 - 15 mins town plenty of shops and cafes.

Very basic site ok location needs updating but any price increase would make the site not worth it. Don't expect too much and you will be ok
