  • Nice big grass fields for unpowered sites at $14 pp.

    Good facilities and it was windy and there was plenty of space to hide from that too.

  • Wonderful powered campsite right by the beach for a decent price (~34 for two ppl).

    The owners are super friendly too and even stayed open a few minutes later in the winter for us to arrive. Good bathroom/shower facilities.

  • Lovely quiet place.

    One big grass campsite, well maintained. Friendly woman at the reception and there was also a campsite cat that walks around. Facilities were clean, a little bit outdated but still fine. We also did some laundry and there was enough space to hang it outside. 2 min. Walk to the beach, lovely!!

  • We loved the park, it was beautifully kept & so cheap.

    We were only staying one night, but stayed three. Very close to city if you wanted it. Definitely be back, the staff were so friendly. Black sand, if you have a van park up on the hill, wow sea views.

  • Beautiful !

    Exceptional customer service, very clean and well looked after. Safe and secure ! A really nice quiet place, right next to the black sand beach. The locals are lovely, downfall was seeing other guests disrespectfully jump the fence to the beach, rather than walking a few extra steps past the office. We will definitely be back !!!

  • This park is immaculate.

    The powered sites have water and a rubbish bin between two sites. Very friendly and helpful staff. The shower and laundry block are spotless. I stayed here during some very rainy weather. I will beback in summer.
