Electric grass pitch (large)

Liked Loved the whole thing! From check in to check out. There was a lovely toilet block, animals to visit and feed. Play park in the middle was a good send. Games room was lovely on darker/colder nights. Will definitely visit in the summer season again. 14 minutes to eden project.

Disliked The showers only stayed on for 5-10 seconds at a time which was incredibly annoying!

Electric grass pitch

Liked Individual hedged pitches. Nice facilities. Hook up and water supply was good.

Disliked We were charged £5 each per visitor that came for a few hours. We met at the site for a 30 year reunion, before going to the local pub. No facilities were used by them. Disappointing and we weren’t informed prior to our arrival despite me writing it on the booking

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Hi David - thank you for your feedback. I'm sorry to hear you were disappointed about the visitor fee, but this is standard practice on most campsites for health and safety reasons, and because our facilities are for the use of paying guests only. You may missed seeing this in advance, but it is clearly explained in the T&Cs, to which your booking was subject. I am copying the relevant section from your booking confirmation here:

Visitors
Visitors must leave the premises by 9 p.m.
Visitors must register at reception and pay their fee.

You had booked for one night, and invited several friends to join you for the afternoon. You may not recognise this as such, but all used our facilities as they drove onto our site, parked on our grass, and used our water, electricity, seating etc.

This aside, I'm glad to hear you enjoyed your stay. Kind regards, Ali & Neil

Apart from that, very good

Colin M. 2 reviews

Electric grass pitch

Liked Lots of space, able to have a fire pit, washing facilities, toilets excellent

Disliked Clearly the grass had grown long and they cut it all just before we arrived, it was very difficult dealing with the grass that just got everywhere particularly when wet. Perhaps they should have cut smaller areas on a rotation basis

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Hello Colin - many thanks for your review. I'm sorry the grass cuttings were a nuisance, but September has been very warm and wet - perfect for growing grass. We're currently mowing 2-3 times per week between showers, and the clue is in your own comments, as sadly, it's simply too wet to collect the clippings. If you'd made us aware this was causing such difficulty during your stay, then we would have gladly lent you some additional door mats and/or moved you to a gravel pitch. Kind regards, Ali & Neil

Had lovely few days, would definitely come back

Electric grass and gravel touring pitch (large)

Liked Lovely small quiet (went in Sept) site. Friendly.
Good size pitches.
Toilets and showers were lovely and clean.
WiFi reliable
Nice large fields for dog walking with friendly pigs (in enclosure, not wandering around site!)
Lovely area.

Disliked Realistically need a car, as narrow roads and no footpaths out from site.

Electric grass pitch

Liked Lovely site with wonderful views from the dog walking area down to the pond. After an unfortunate wasp sting on my dog’s face the lovely owners moved me into a wonderful luxury yurt which was really peaceful with amazing views

Disliked Wasps!

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Hi Elaine - it's lovely to hear from you and thank you for taking the time to leave us such a lovely review. I'm sorry you and Lulah had to deal with the wasp sting, and glad we were able to make your stay end on a happier note. We'd love to see you both again in the future. With kind regards, Ali & Neil

Electric grass and gravel touring pitch (large)

Liked Peaceful, well set out spacious site. Owners very friendly and welcoming, was good to have the pizza van on Friday night to save some cooking and washing up. Washing up facilities plentiful (4 sinks) and undercover next the laundry room which has a washing machine and tumble dryer. Access to the site was quick and easy from the main road and the small shop on site useful if you needed to pick up some bits and pieces. Meadow for dog walking was massive and a great space to explore. We stayed on a hardstanding pitch which had plenty of space to pitch an awning and still have room to sit outside on the grass. Recycling bags were provided so you could store up your dry recycling before taking to the bins which was very helpful.

Disliked Just a personal thing (not a reflection on the site) which took a bit of getting used to for us (probably more of an age thing) was the inclusive toilets and showers, but can see this is a great help for young families on holiday.

From the manager: Hello Sharon - thanks so much for your kind review, and we're glad to hear you enjoyed your stay at our little site. Yes, we are aware that our facilities are a little unusual in some respects, but as you noted, it makes it so much easier for families. And just to reassure you and anyone else reading this review, our facilities are very safe - all cubicles are fully enclosed, doors are flush with the floor and fitted with secure locks, and cctv monitors the entrance and public areas. Hope to see you again at some point. With kindest regards, Ali & Neil

Local attractions

As well as the Eden Project, you may care to take a look at another top Cornwall attraction within five miles, the National Trust-managed Lanhydrock estate with its swish Victorian mansion and acres of green gardens. Within the same distance is Camel Valley Vineyard, Cornwall's biggest – yes, they do tours and yes, there is a shop. If you've brought your bike along with you, pedal the six miles or so to the Forestry Commission's Cardinham Woods for bike and mountain bike rides among the trees; bike hire is available at the centre here if you're arriving by foot or car. Get in the car or hail the local bus for your other excellent options around here, such as a potter and a seafood sample at the handsome little fishing village of Fowey, the Lost Gardens of Heligan or ziplining at Adrenaline Quarry – all within 30 to 35 minutes' drive.
