Well maintained and great location
Electric grass tent or motorhome pitch
Liked Location close to Porthleven and level pitches. Facilities always clean.
Disliked "New" toilet block is a portacabin and as such is not exactly luxurious but it is functional.

All in all a reasonable site in a good location for the area.
Fully-serviced hardstanding and grass touring pitch
Liked Good, level pitches. We had fully serviced, and it worked well without issue.
Disliked The porta Loo style trailer for some reason had frosted glass doors, so not a lot of privacy.
The chemical waste point could have been a bit better.
As the site is behind the pub, it wasn’t very good when the recycling truck arrived at 06:30 to collect the glass waste. Certainly an early morning call.

Rough and ready. Mo
Fully-serviced hardstanding and grass touring pitch
Liked We had a lovely holiday at Mill lane, the lady at reception/bar was lovely. Porthleven is a lovely place, lots of good independent shops and places to eat and drink
Disliked The very dated facilities although they were reasonably clean. We use our own shower in our unit. The price is obviously for the location.

Liked Good pitches. Very convenient and easy short walk into town. Easy going.
Disliked Toilets sub-standard. Unpleasant to use. Cleaner tries her best but facilities too poor to ever seem other than grim.

Probability of return low.
Fully-serviced hardstanding and grass touring pitch
Liked Porthleven, close to bus stop for Falmouth and Penzance. Free wifi
Disliked Top dollar prices for very basic site, showers and toilets were dated and dirty, Elsa’s point was built by someone who’s never used one. As for warden or staff never saw any!
There is a pub onsite which may attract some, but with Porthleven harbour only half a mile down the road we didn’t view it as a positive.
The site is half a mile from the harbour tucked between a housing estate and car parks, not the prettiest of locations.
From a security point of view we never saw the entrance gates closed and with the lack of visible staff anyone can drive onto the site. We watched a van drive in site fill up with water and tip waste, then drive away.
Pitches are level and a decent size, but for the price per night, I expected better.
