Spitfire Park

Liked That it was so close to Perranporth and not too far from St Agnes. The man behind the reception was friendly and the drinks were a reasonable price. Was very cheap but that reflected the facilities. My daughter loved the park and said that was her favourite thing about our weekend away (despite spending 3 days on the beaches).

Disliked The facilities are so basic that I would not want to stay for more than a few nights. We came home early as the showers were disgusting and two times we used them they just trickled out water. Not great when you’ve just spent the day on the beach. Maybe need to invest a bit of money in a better shower block/water pressure.

From the manager: Thanks for your review – we’re really pleased you enjoyed our location, friendly welcome, and reasonable prices, and it’s lovely to hear your daughter loved the play park.

I’m really sorry about the low water pressure during your stay. This was caused by building works going on in the nearby village, and as we’re in a small hamlet, it can sometimes affect us during busy periods. We’ve been in touch with South West Water to see if there’s a permanent fix, but unfortunately haven’t had any luck yet.

We’ve invested a lot this year in a new toilet and shower building, and our team cleans it at least three times a day in the busy season to keep everything fresh and tidy. We’ve also installed extra water tanks on site to try and help with pressure problems when the supply drops, but sometimes the outside works still have an impact.

Hopefully, when South West Water can come up with a better solution, you’ll be able to come back and experience the facilities as they’re meant to be

Liked We really enjoyed this park it’s very simple but our 2 year old loved watching the planes and parachute jumpers from our tent . Relaxed environment only a few rules of no noise after 10 and fires and bbqs off the grass . Got to pick where we wanted to pitch our tent and was nice to enjoy a cold beer from the bar in the sun .

Liked Very chilled atmosphere. The staff are lovely and down to earth not just corporate lackies. The food in the cafe is really good. The value for money is spot on. I'd recommend if you're in a campervan/motor home it's park where you like more or less and free wifi and nice hot showers.

Disliked We originally planned to stay at this campsite for four nights, but after just one, we felt we had no choice but to leave due to an extremely unpleasant and unsafe experience.

A group of campers near us were playing loud music and shouting until around 5am. Far worse, one individual became aggressive toward my 65-year-old father—threatening him with violence and calling him a “Welsh C**t”. Their behaviours throughout the night was aggressive, disturbing, loud and included concerning treatment of their dogs as well in the morning.

We didn’t feel safe leaving our trailer tent or my father’s camper unattended around these individuals.

While we understand the campsite can’t always control who turns up or how they behave initially, the real issue was how the situation was handled. We reported everything to the owner and staff the next morning. They told us they had a zero-tolerance policy and that the group would be removed from the site that day.

But they weren’t. The group was allowed to stay, which only made the situation worse and more tense. We ended up cutting our trip short and leaving after just one night. Another couple nearby who had just arrived for a single night also packed up and left early.

To make matters worse, there was no warden on site during the night, and no emergency contact number provided for guests to report serious problems outside of office hours. This left us feeling completely unsupported during what was a very distressing situation.

We left feeling unsafe, disappointed, and let down. We strongly urge the campsite to take future incidents like this more seriously and to provide better support for guests, especially during the night.

From the manager: Thank you for your feedback. We’re truly sorry to hear that your stay with us was affected in this way.

We want to be clear that we do not tolerate aggressive or antisocial behaviour on our site, and once this incident was reported to us the following morning, we took immediate steps to address it. Both the owner and site manager spoke directly with those involved and took what we believed to be appropriate action based on the information available at the time.

From our conversations with you, we were under the impression that the situation had been resolved and that you were satisfied with how it had been handled. Had we been made aware that you still felt unsafe or uncomfortable, we would have taken further steps to support you.

We would also like to clarify that all guests are given our site manager’s direct contact number at check-in. He lives on site and is available for out-of-hours concerns. We’re sorry if this wasn’t clear or if you didn’t feel able to reach out on the night.

We regret that your stay was cut short and hope you understand that we acted promptly and in good faith to resolve the issue once it was brought to our attention. Your comments will help us further improve communication and support for future guests

Liked Site was good., good location, reasonable facilities.

Disliked Although the showers are hot, they’re on a 5 second timer. So by the time you’ve touched your head once, it’s time to push the button again.

Unfortunately other users, weren’t the cleanest, and left shower rooms dirty and unusable at times. Needs a squeegee to move excess water/clean floor after individual use.

Using the hand dryers also tripped the electric every time, so needs an electrician pronto!
