What customers say
This campsite offers a peaceful, back-to-basics experience with spacious pitches and beautiful rural views. Visitors praise the friendly and exceptionally helpful owner, Richard, who actively maintains the clean portaloos and showers. While facilities are described as basic, they are well-kept. The location is convenient for local attractions like the Eden Project, and its quiet atmosphere is ideal for stargazing and nature lovers. Some mention narrow access roads and occasionally inconsistent shower temperatures, but overall, the value for money and relaxed atmosphere are highly recommended.

From the manager: Thank you Andy for your review
We are a back to basic campsite with good clean facilities unfortunately the water heater broken down but still work. Most campers can cope with this and understand the situation . Your family struggle to cope with everything so this campsite didn't suit your needs . When I use to milk cows we had artic lorry's delivered corn about 24 tons then there was milk lorry which hold 24 000 thousand litres they cope with a single lane . This is Cornwall we are no snowflakes
We are in a SSSI area that's why The camping field blends into this beautiful area
Hopefully you find a camsite that suits your needs
