We stayed here at a non powered site for one night. It was easy to check into after hours, though it was slightly confusing where the pitch was. The facilities were on the whole clean and well maintained, everything you need. The showers had a curtain and a space to leave your stuff and change without being in the wet part of the shower. The toilets were clean. The kitchen facilities were great - ...

We used the washing machine and dryer both $6 a bundle and was also really clean and no issues. 40min each, enoug...
