The clatter of fishing boats and the call of harbour gulls drift up from the quay — you're in proper coastal territory here, the kind of place where mornings taste of salt and strong tea.
The Old Townhouse offers something a bit different: camping pods for those wanting a cosy, weatherproof night, and guest house rooms for anyone preferring four walls and a proper bed. It's a handy option for couples, small families, or anglers heading down to Fishermans Landing — the sort of setup that suits people who want a comfortable base without the full hotel experience. Dogs are welcome by arrangement, so worth asking ahead if you're bringing one.
Campfire policy needs checking when you arrive, and facilities aren't extensively listed, so expect a simpler, more intimate feel rather than a sprawling site with all the bells and whistles. Open all year, which makes it useful for off-season trips when most campsites have pulled up the drawbridge. It's the kind of place that does what it does quietly — nothing showy, just a decent night's kip close to the water.
