What customers say
This campsite offers spacious, private pitches, stunning views, and immaculately clean facilities, including large showers. Staff are consistently praised for being friendly, helpful, and accommodating, particularly Amy and Roger. While guests appreciate the peaceful atmosphere, some mention noise from a nearby workshop. Access can be tricky, and a lack of heating in the facilities during colder months has been noted. Overall, it's highly recommended for its quality and value.

Non-electric grass tent pitch (backpacker, no cars, no pets, two person)
Liked Privacy shrubs, super clean bathrooms, only 3 showers, but 2 shower heads in each so 2+ people can shower at same time-- much faster! Plenty of sinks for dishes. We were on bicycles, most accommodating. Highly recommend.

From the manager: Thank you so much for your very kind feedback and your custom. We appreciate your custom and are so pleased you enjoyed what we have to offer, including the chairs and charging points available for our backpackers. We know these are often greatly appreciated after a long cycle or walk to be able to reset off of sometimes hard or wet ground. Wishing you all the best for the rest of your adventures and 2026!

Electric optional grass campervan, tent or trailer tent pitch
Liked Amazing views, good size pitch, facilities keep very clean, lots of sinks to wash up, electric showers,Amy and Roger were very friendly and great pre visit communication, good location in little village, shops nearby, short travelling distance to lots of beaches

Fully-serviced grass and gravel tent or motorhome pitch
Liked Great family run campsite with clean showers and toilets, double showers were great for showering with my little boy after a day at the beach. Clean washing up facilities all working. Amy is always about cleaning and is lovely and helpful. Pitches are lovely and spacious with green area in the middle for children to play and 2 football goals. Lovely little herb garden you can use. Freezer onsite for ice packs. Only thing that would have been helpful would be a washing machine. But one of the best campsites we have been to as a family and would 100% recommend and would love to come back again. Thank you Amy and Roger

Ps. The herb having been going down a treat...makes a good salad! Or mint tea!

Fully-serviced grass and gravel tent or motorhome pitch
Liked The view & peaceful setting was lovely! A family site - was lovely seeing the camp 'wake up' in the mornings & their return from day outs!!
Children had the middle of field to play & the country views in the distance made for relaxing sitting outside van!
Robartes pub just along from site on safe walk but not serving food at the present time. Morrisons next to pub and great selection of foods and drink! Also pasty shop opp pub!!!
The Ship Inn 15 min drive or 40 minutes walk .... best to book table for food!
Choice of baches a short drive away &
lovely walks in & around village of Illogan.
Amy the owner, is lovely and her directions to enter the site from the A30 was spot on for our touring van.
Amy's warden, Roger was very helpful & always ready to help or assist in any way! 😊
All my family had a great week & will be going back without a doubt, with all three grown up children & five grandchildren! 🥰
Disliked Can't think of anything to dislike!

From the manager: Thank you Izabela for your lovely remark and of course your custom. It was lovely meeting you all and I hope you enjoyed your stay even if the weather was hot and the national ban on barbecues made cooking a little more challenging. We wish you all, all the best for the rest of your Summer!
