We were very pleased with the camping from the moment of arrival. The staff were very helpful, the accommodation was clean and well presented. The environment was safe and we felt comfortable to let the kids wander around. The pools were adequate for the numbers of people and the water was clean. The activities were varied and ran on-time, by friendly staff. The shop was adequate as was the restaurant. The only issue I have is there were no pizzas available during lunch. Overall we were very happy with our stay and would happily return.
