Electric grass tent pitch
Liked: We had a lovely stay at Orchard Springs. It had clean showers and toilets, two washing up spaces (one indoors with kitchen facilities and one outdoors) and large pitch sizes. Our electric hook-up worked well the whole of our stay and there was also free WiFi incase of bad signal, although ours was fine. We enjoyed how there weren't too many pitches, as this meant it wasn't as busy/noisy, we also had a lot of space between us and our neighbours. The surrounding area is lovely countryside with Bodmin town about a five minute drive away, and about half an hour away from some amazing beaches. The owners are very friendly and informative. Would stay again 😊
