Nice area but yes a lot of odd folk about, driving in and out honking horns and lots of litter. Three cars turned up around 8:30pm tried to do some wicked mad skidz then parked about 5m away from me. And to be fair they were quite quiet and left around 9.30. I also decided to leave at that moment. I also couldn't see any official documentation about staying here for allowed or not allowed.
Best free campsite i've seen so far. Great view, nice locals who just love to chat you up. Great swim in the morning. Love it!
Great in the day, a hot spot for the locals. At night however bad vibes. Two cars kept approaching and leaving. Then as I decided to leave both vehicles was on the road waiting. One of the vehicles was a red car and the driver had been present and talking loudly earlier on as well as drinking
In the day time it’s great. At night not so much. there are vehicles coming in and out at all times. A man talking to himself and drinking while driving was what I first noticed earlier on in the evening. He made a few appearances. Originally I just brushed it off and figured he was crazy but enjoying the scenery. However this man kept leaving and entering. I left around 11pm after being parked up on my own. A few visits from an additional vehicle circling. Then both waiting as I left the area.
Same guy as mentioned yesterday was here again. Just shouting and being more agressive today. We ended up driving at 11pm in the night to another place after 3 hours of hoping he would drive his way again.
Got really bad vibes, a dodgy character hanging around the toilet and creepy man in his car driving round looking at campers. Didn’t end up staying.
The place is truly magnificent, clean and lit toilets, a little swim in the lake is highly recommended, however the locals do not seem happy that this place is a freecamp! During the afternoon a lot of cars passing by deliberately skidding, then in the night a group of 3 cars honked near the vans with music at full blast...
10/10 clean toilets with flash. A lot of space for many campers!! We loved it
Beautiful place. Very quiet and peaceful. Stayed on a Tuesday and Wednesday night. Nice walk around the lake
The place itself was lovely, with a beautiful, tranquil lake that was peaceful most of the time. It was clear from the start that it was a popular spot for locals to gather and have fun. Unfortunately, around 11:15 pm, a car pulled up next to us and started doing burnouts. There was a high chance that stones could have been flung from the tyres while drifting, potentially hitting our motorhome. Not the best night. Good phone reception (Rocket)
