The Golden Lion Inn - Lakeside Camping

Very friendly staff at pub

The route to ththe showers and toilets was across a dark garden with no lighting. Toilets whilst clean were rustic and the showers looked cold and uninviting.

The pitches, tidy garden surroundings, close to pub which serve good food

toilet and shower and washig up facilities.

Great central position to visit all over cornwall, A warm welcome assured by the staff nothing too much trouble. Toilets and showers clean with nice hot water. My only complaints are my stay was not long enough.

Nice place

Close to everything lovely lake on the other camp text door that we could have had access too clean gardens

–

Food very nice in pub, small camping site

Toilets poor, door code was a nightmare, dogs barking on night and to near an adjacent road for the reservoir activity centre, if your in a tent its a bit to noisy , caravan then you would be ok, cost thought at august was good value,

Closeness to pub and level site.

We liked the central location for exploring Cornwall, and the staff were helpful when required. Grass was kept short and the pitch was very level with no difficulty setting the pegs. Nice garden and loved the size of the site; intimate yet more than enough space. Didn't feel packed in at all.
Well sign posted from a number of roads leading to the site and had no problems finding the site.

Overall the campsite served a purpose, however we were disappointed. The main pet peeve for both of us was that there was no screening between the showers and diners in the pub. Every evening we had to walk past people eating their dinner in the conservatory in our pj's, or being stared at whist doing dishes. There should be some sort hedge or trellis to prevent this. The water in the sink to do our dishes was more often than not very milky, and the showers were very sporadic. Also, it was obvious the showers or toilets had not been cleaned for at least 2 days after our arrival.
I would also suggest to the owners that tents be put at the back of the site. There's a lot of noise late into the evening from the lake traffic, people leaving the pub, the kitchen finishing up, and from whoever was staying in the static caravan (including dog barking, loud music). As for 'lakeside', we were very excited about this prospect, however it is a bit misleading, as the site is actually separated by a hedge and them a busy road. The description makes it sound like it's on the bank on the lake.

the small size of the site .not to many people coming and going .
it is within a 30 to 40 min drive to any where in cornwall for a good day out .
the pitch sizes are good you are not on top of others staying there .it is the third time I have stayed at this site and will be going back again soon

nothing to dislike at this site
