Janet, on this campsite in June 2023

4.5

Travelling party: Couple

Rents out the facilities for private parties. Locals were permitted to drive in though security barrier. Parties on 2 consecutive nights were loud, drunken and disorderly, running on till well past midnight (2am in the second case). The live rock band that came on after midnight reverberated through the ‘van. Sleep was impossible.
The toilets in the morning were wet and, some, unflushed. The shower water is pre-mixed and fairly cold.
