I had a lovely time at the campsite, enjoying the peaceful surroundings and well-kept gardens. The spacious pitches were a highlight, especially pitch 38, which was perfect for my motorhome. The cleanliness of the facilities, especially the restrooms and showers, was impressive. However, I did find my pitch quite far from the amenities, which made trips to the shower block a bit of a trek. Overall, it was a great stay, but the distance to facilities could be better.

Our camping experience at Hele Valley was absolutely delightful! The location is serene, tucked away in a beautiful valley with easy access to the beach and local walks. The cleanliness of the site is impressive, and the spacious pitches added to our comfort. However, we noticed that some areas could benefit from a bit more attention, particularly in terms of amenities for cooking and food storage, which were somewhat limited.

We had an amazing experience at the campsite, enjoying the peaceful atmosphere and the cleanliness of the facilities. The staff really went above and beyond to accommodate us, and we appreciated the helpful amenities provided. However, we dealt with some long grass around our pitch, which made it a bit wet and less comfortable. Overall, it was a great spot for a family getaway, especially being so close to the beach for fun activities.

We had an excellent camping experience with very clean and modern facilities, and the spacious pitches made our stay even more enjoyable. The great location near the beach and local pubs added to the fun. However, we faced some minor disturbance from nearby campers, which affected our relaxation a bit. Overall, it was an outstanding choice for our family getaway.
