Great location, great onsite bar, clean facilities, toilets dated.
Electric grass tent or motorhome pitch
Liked Excellent location, short walk to the centre of Porthleven. Friendly helpful staff. Onsite bar with a good selection of local ales. Showers & toilets were very clean. Overall the site was clean & well kept with short grass.
Disliked Only 3 showers which were clean & in good condition however this could lead to queueing at busier periods. Also for the price paid I thought the toilets were very basic & small although they were always very clean.
