Summary AI-generated from Pitchup.com customer reviews




















Not a bad site, we've visited worse. Access/park-up was not the best.
Electric hardstanding touring pitch
Liked A useful location for our weekend visit to The Eden Project.
Decent showers/amenities.
Very Quiet. Left well alone.
Disliked When they say entrance time cut off of 7pm - they mean it. We got there with minutes to spare.
Caravan restrictions on size does not cover how tight caravan parking is. Without an auto parking system, one has to be very skilled to park your caravan. A tractor is available, but not after 7pm as it's a quiet site.
Some very narrow lanes to get to site.
More set up for glamping/camping.
