yes ark, stayed there a couple of years ago.
I have thought about going back but its the cost and the weather that's stopped me.

The only thing about it is there can be some swell coming in to the beach when launching and recovering the boat.
It's ok but can make it a little tricky.

There are always places like here - Riverside Caravan Park | About Riverside

Simple launching in Plymouth, free slips, loads to see both on and off the water.

Not been but heard good things.

It's handy places with there own slipways as you don't have to rush and pay for extra parking etc.

Not cheap to launch and moor though
