What customers say
Elysian Fields offers spacious, well-maintained pitches and exceptional, uniquely decorated shower facilities praised by guests. Staff are consistently described as friendly and helpful, with many highlighting specific individuals for their exceptional service. The campsite's location is ideal for exploring Cornwall's attractions. A small number of guests noted issues with muddy pitches, inconsistent shop opening times, and occasional noise disturbances. The on-site pub, Tony's Tavern, generally receives positive feedback for its food and atmosphere.

Non-electric grass tent pitch (solo)
Liked Excellent , clean facilities , plenty of hot water and a warm friendly welcome

Lovely family friendly site with everything we needed.
Electric grass pitch (XL)
Liked Our tent is 7X2.6m and we use a gazebo too so the XL pitch was more than enough.
We liked that the site wasn't huge and everything was easily within walking distance.
The bar on site is very cute and open when we visited on the first night. Hot water for washing up felt like an absolute luxury after the last site we were at.
The site had a relaxed atmosphere and we were greeted warmly by the staff.
Reception wasn't open, but she came as soon as we rang the number on the board.
We loved having a fire most nights.
Our 8 yo twins spent a lot of time at the playground making friends.
The shower block had individual bathrooms which were fine provided the previous person hadn't left muddy footprints everywhere - it's perfectly easy to squeegee the floor with the tool provided and leave it clean for the next person.
The ladies toilets were clean and always had loo roll, but ran out of soap which wasn't refilled for the last 2 days of our trip.
Lidl was a short car ride away for groceries.
The WiFi was fine for my kids to use on their iPads.
Disliked Overall it's a great site. The only thing that could be improved is a cover over the washing up area. If it starts to rain mid-washing, you're going to get wet.
The shop and/or reception weren't always physically open, but there was someone on the end of the phone who could usually help.
People have mentioned the pitches aren't level. There was the tiniest of slopes across the site, we didn't notice it on pitch 12.

Liked The Elysian Fields staff are truly welcoming and great people!
We had some issue with our car and they were very flexible in offering solutions and thinking along!
Disliked We had the very last pitch on the field, which was exactly where the wi-fi ended. Still... it is a holiday, so be prepared to read a book! :)

Loved this site, would definitely recommend amd come back again
Electric grass pitch (XL)
Liked Not too busy, quirky and clean individual shower cubicles with sink, loo and hairdryer. Separate toilet block, again nice and clean with soap, paper towels provided and hair dryer.
Well kept site with loads of room, super friendly staff and home cooked food at Tony's Tavern, limited menu but pizzas to die for!
Disliked No soap in the shower rooms. Would be a great addition as I saw several campers heading in just to use the loo.
Some extra hooks in the shower rooms would also be super useful.

Excellent site with fantastic facilities, clean and well kept!
Electric grass pitch (large)
Liked Everything!! A fantastic little site with a very friendly team of staff, nothing was too much trouble and even put the opening game of the women's rugby world cup on for us in the bar!
The toilets were very well kitted out and every bathroom was different themes and loved the fact that we didn't have to push buttons to keep the water going and could have it at our individual temp!
Kids loved the small park and kept our youngest (9) entertained when needed
