VW-Type Campervan - Non Electric Grass Touring PitchesAug 2023

Meganwins Farm was like a campsite from back in the day; wholesome, simple camping for a great price. The location is excellent with beaches super close by and lots of local conveniences down the road, yet it's tucked up a quiet little track and feels like you're in the middle of nowhere. The facilities are basic but are cleaned every day. The outdoor showers are cold water only which is fine, however the weather was was a bit too cold for me to use them. On a warm sunny day it would have been glorious.
