Liked: The camping field is beautiful! Not just the views and surrounding countryside, so much space, amazing value for money, good showers and toilets kept immaculately clean. Richard is attentive to guests needs and gave good local information. I had 2 very peaceful nights here and thoroughly recommend!

Liked: This site was lovely, it had electric hookups, showers (2 x good showers) toilets and a washroom. It wasn’t a flat field but up the top where we were it wasn't bad and even down the bottom
Disliked: The wind

Liked: Very lovely field in the middle of nowhere -I didn't stay up but would probably be a really good dark sky site. Basic amenities, but adequate. Owner Richard very friendly and laid back- he jump started my van for me because I left the ignition and lights on and flattened the battery. No arrival or leaving deadlines, so no rush.
Disliked: nothing

Liked: This is a lovely camping field with lovely views, plenty of space, clean basic facilities, hot showers and a friendly and helpful owner Richard. Fantastic location for the Eden Project. I called Richard to ask about a taxi and he kindly took us and picked us up again and only accepted a modest amount towards a beer or two. If you want marked out pitches with large shower blocks, shops and swings for the kids go elsewhere. If you like to be in a peaceful field with the sound of birds and cows then this is for you.

From the manager: Thank you Colin for your review The Camping field is a back to basic campsite which is in a SSSI area which means Sites of special scientific interest If you did not enjoy the views of helman tor and the wildlife and the peacefulness which the campsite provides you are better to go to a campsite which have bars and fast food, overcrowded, noisy neighbours. We are just a simple campsite with good facilities Happy camping Richard
