Well, I got stuck out there in May. The lady who runs the café is friendly and helpful, there is a bus to the town and a supermarket next door. The runway is more taildragger friendly than Bembridge. It's an airfield.......I wasn't charged for camping next to the Cub. Actually, apart from having to spend two nights in a tent it was OK. Nice helpful people fly from there, including the guy who took me to meet his wife and kids, fed me, and got my flight plan filed.
It's actually more like a farm strip from the amenities point of view, but then I like farm strips.
