Liked: A really well maintained, small and tidy site. Tom the owner is lovely and cares a lot for the place. The facilities are well made and kept clean with nice touches such as washing up liquid provided.
Disliked: The portable fridge / freezer is solar powered and has no battery back up. Therefore on cloudy days or overnight it has no power and defrosts and warms up, not really suitable for purpose. Showers are high powered but didn't get hotter than lukewarm, despite the taps all having boiling hot water.

Liked: Loved the toilet facilities, clean and well lit. Great washing up area, they even have washing bowls, washing liquid and a sponge just incase you've forgotten anything.
Disliked: Not a dislike as we will deffo be visiting again but if they could improve on anything it would be the bbq area could do with a lil more. Could do with a bench closer and maybe raised slabs or bbq pit.

Liked: Small clean site with generously sized allocated level pitches. Great washing/shower/toilet facilities. Only a few other campers and nice quiet people. Location good for lots of places including the Lizard, Falmouth etcand Helston with supermarkets only a few miles away
Disliked: Nothing about the site itself and the narrow approach lanes weren’t an issue for us. There was a lot of noise at night from helicopters at RNAS Culdrose but only one night did it keep us awake

One of my favourites anyway. We will definitely be back

Liked: Very quiet, beautifully kept, fabulous toilet block, excellent value. The handwash in the toilets was fabulous! Exfoliating and lovely smell! Even though it rained a bit, the field was not at all boggy.
Disliked: The showers. The push button was a bit annoying and they veered from cold to hot all the time.

Liked: Everything! I loved how small this campsite was, as a terrible spider whimp I really appreciated how clean and well kept the facilities were. I loved the solar charging station and although I didn't use it, there was a freezer unit for ice packs which was a fantastic idea. And all run on solar!! Warm running water to wash up, and even the smaller details like an exfoliating hand wash! Just perfect!
Disliked: A very very small criticism and honestly it's so minor but I thought I'd mention so people are aware. The showers turn off far to quickly, they are are the sort of showers that you get at swimming pools, push the button and when the button pops up it turns off. Make sure you take something that keeps the shower on for a bit 😊 Honestly though, the campsite was so worth it this is only a very minor thing. We would return in a heartbeat!
