What customers say
This campsite benefits from an excellent location, a short walk from Porthleven harbour, shops and amenities. Pitches are generally spacious and level, with good facilities including clean, hot showers. The on-site pub is popular. Some guests noted the facilities are dated, and occasional noise from the road or pub, but overall feedback is very positive, with many guests keen to return.

Porthleven’s a beautiful village, perfectly placed site to explore.
Fully-serviced hardstanding and grass touring pitch
Liked Great Location. Porthleven harbour is a short walk away. Coastal paths within easy reach. Loe Bar beach is spectacular though no swimming allowed. Mill Lane is in a Peaceful setting. Showers were good with plenty of hot water. Pitch sizes were good.
Disliked Lack of proper reception on arrival. Not notified of pitch change prior to arrival. General upkeep could be better. But would be happy to return.

Electric grass tent or motorhome pitch
Liked Close to Porthleven harbour. Evening walks into the port lovely.
Toilets and showers clean. We went out of season I am not sure the facilities would be enough in peak season. Cleaner very friendly.
Disliked Uneven stoney pitch, placed furthest distance from facilities, told unable to move, despite empty pitches. Road noise, pub noise. Difficult access to one toilet area.
Reception area was a pub, we didn’t see anyone from site team during our stay, except someone behind bar who couldn’t help us to change our pitch.

Fully-serviced hardstanding and grass touring pitch
Liked Liked the layback approach to the site
Small walk into Portleven where there were plenty of eateries and bars.
Toilets and showers on site were good apart from not having any mops in the showers to clean the shower after you had used it or before at times!!
Bonus was having a pub on site too
Disliked Having to come home
