Liked: Site team had a wet weather plan in place to keep the site open, keep vehicles safe and the ground intact. Good size pitches, clean facilities, hot showers. Nice walk into town via the coastal path. Walk into town via the road not as easy as quite a steep and busy road with few pedestrian pavements.

Liked: Perfect facilities perfectly maintained. This place is beautiful, all the facilities work and are properly maintained and cleaned to the nth degree. The pitches are the most level I've ever encountered: obviously the beautiful grass has been rolled. A great effort was made in horrible weather conditions to preserve the condition of the grass, but without any of the exasperated nastiness one sometimes observes in guardians of grass. I stayed with my 9 year old daughter and miniature dachshund for a rainy week and we were made to feel extremely welcome. My daughter enjoyed the play facilities very much and doggie enjoyed the canine facilities likewise.

Liked: Spacious level site which is exceptionally well looked after. The facilities including pool table, table tennis, tennis court and football field are wonderful. The walk along the lanes and down the cliff path to the beach is lovely.
Disliked: The site is quite exposed for those in tents or with awnings should you get any windy weather during your stay

Liked: Pristine everywhere! Quiet, peaceful, friendly. I’ve never stayed anywhere so immaculate. It’s a beautiful walk (very steep but I don’t mind that) to the beautiful Porthtowan beach but if you want to drive, there’s a decent car park which isn’t extortionate, 2 nice pubs although I only went in The Blue Bar and there’s even some free parking if you get lucky. Perfect campsite in a perfect setting, would definitely return and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend to anyone.
Disliked: Not a single thing
