Liked: Great views, simple and not busy, plus a really good price. Shower was nice and washing up area was good. Compost loo was fine (if it really is then composted? Not convinced). Lots of good, flat pitch choices, with good views. Fantastic location in terms of proximity to beaches and St Just. We had a really great holiday staying there.
Disliked: Very hands off approach of owner - not very pro-active, but responded to any issues and was friendly. Would have been good to have more prompt toilet emptying. Some rules, a footpath map, contact details and info at washing up point would have been handy. Also, a quick greet and point of contact with owner would have gone down well. Being able to freeze ice packs would have been great, although tricky to make happen given the site. Feels like a side hustle given minimal time from the owner, which for most of the time is fine, but some easy improvements could be made.

From the manager: Sorry you disliked some aspects of our site but until now our campers have enjoyed the fact that we have kept to only 10 pitches and you choose where you want to set up, its a very relaxed stay with no set pitches and definitely no overcrowding, we also don't feel the need to check folk in and out as the booking was made online through a reputable site {no side hustle} and we are available via mobile phone for any queries. The composting toilet has been very well received and is definitely recycled, unsure what you imagine we do with it! {Unfortunately one morning I was late around as I broke my toe and was literally off my feet for a few hours.} There are no actual public footpaths from our farm so we don't supply maps. There is my contact number on the signpost to the campsite and being a non electric site we don't offer any cooling/freezing facilities. We are happy you enjoyed your stay and had a good holiday and would recommend our site to friends. .
We had a wonderful stay, everything we wanted it to be

Liked: The simplicity and that there were only two other pairs of campers there, felt like we had the place to ourselves… which was greatly appreciated. Basically flat field, simple compost loo. Closeness to Sennen, Cape Cornwall, Morvah etc. The view was ok too.
Disliked: The road noise from the StJust to Penzance road. Would have liked recycling and compost/ food waste facilities.
