What customers say
This family-run site is praised for its spacious pitches, clean facilities, and friendly, helpful staff. Located conveniently for exploring Cornwall, it offers a well-stocked farm shop and a pleasant atmosphere. Some guests noted minor issues with shower design and the cost of Wi-Fi, while the proximity to the airport means occasional plane noise. Despite these minor points, many reviewers express a desire to return.

Friendly staff
Electric grass pitch
Liked Liked pretty much everything, good toilet and shower facilities ( bit dated) but well cleaned, close to bus stop ( 12 min walk) ideal to visit Padstow and Newquay, next door to Newquay airport.
Disliked Wi-Fi a bit iffey would only work on one computer, no problem for a few days though ( only cost £10 for the week) the site we’re on now is free for all devices and should be free on all sites. Especially when there is no mobile service.

Great campsite, great facilities - all around a great place to stay.
Non-electric grass pitch
Liked Really spacious field and good facilities. Pizza and coffee van was great - would definately come again!
Disliked Airport is right next to the campsite so can be loud but planes aren’t coming in and out too regularly, just something to be aware of.

Love to stay again! We will be back next year!
Non-electric grass pitch (family)
Liked Great views of the airfield and nice and close to Newquay. Lovely little farm shop ( not too expensive either). Food van on site that changes its menu each night - Friday, jacket potatoes, Saturday, pizza, Sunday, fish and chips etc.
Basic toilet block but staff came in to fill up toilet rolls daily. Could do with a clean on the ceiling- lots of large spiders.
Showers lovely and hot just need a clean during busy times.
Cute little park for kids.
Disliked Grass was a bit long being the end of the summer so wet feet on the morning walks.
Google maps tried to take us further down the road.

Thank you for an amazing experience
Non-electric grass pitch
Liked An absolute pleasure staying at your campsite
The staff were always happy and smiling
And the facilities were kept to a very high standard
Disliked Being woken by random planes taking off
😂😂
But one thing that needs sorting are the shower heads the streams were all over the place except the user

Lovely place to camp especially if you like planes , nice & clean .
Electric grass pitch
Liked Clean pitch , nice and quiet until the planes went over and loved that even more .
Clean facilities, brilliant little shop with fresh foods . Staff absolutely lovely and welcoming. Lovely location ( make sure you love planes like we do ) not far from beaches will be back .
Disliked We got 2 pitches for us and my son and his wife , they were large pitches and after seeing 7 tents and 7 cars on one pitch I think we should of done the same and used one pitch for us both couples , next time we shall book one pitch .

Electric grass pitch
Liked Shop selling fresh milk, open 8-8
Children's playground
Daily huts selling food
Friendliness of all the people who work there
Very close to watergate bay, bus to Newquay drops right outside campsite as does Padstow!
Disliked Showers dont work properly, they all need redoing- spurting in different directions unable to get a proper shower
Loudness until sometimes 12 midnight, I appreciate its a family place e.t.c and slightly out of sites control, it does ask for everybody to be respectful but some parents allowed thier kids out at the park until come 10.30pm screaming and not watching them, was slightly frustrating!
WiFi wasn't free! £10 for a week is expensive!
