What customers say
This campsite is praised for its excellent location, just a short, flat walk to Porthleven harbour, shops, and restaurants. Visitors highlight clean and hot shower facilities, friendly staff, and well-maintained, spacious pitches. The on-site pub is a popular bonus. While most reviews are positive, some note that facilities are dated and could benefit from an upgrade. A few mention noise from the nearby road or pub, and occasional issues with muddy pitches during wet weather.

Room for improvements but overall all a great location. Would revisit
Electric grass tent or motorhome pitch
Liked Location was great. Out of the blue pub part of the campsite. Clean pitch with electric. 3 showers with decent temperature settings plus 2 sinks, plenty of locations to walk to and bus stop just off site. Spingo ale served in pub.
Disliked No adequate steps to pot-washing area.
Water was turned off at water filling station and no advice was given on arrival. The 3 Porter cabin toilets were a tight squeeze against the door to close. Electric pitches were not clearly marked out.

Non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch
Liked Nothing.
Disliked Cars doing donuts in the car park at midnight. Numerous campervan occupants partying with loud music and swearing until we'll after midnight. Women's toilet out of order for a while. Campers pilling out of the bar attached to the site well after 11pm.

Would highly recommend, great little site in a beautiful place.
Fully-serviced hardstanding and grass touring pitch
Liked Nice flat pitch, plenty of room to put up the awning and spread out a bit. Also considering it was quite busy it was quiet. Good facilities and a nice bar with added facilities if you want to use it.
Showers and toilets clean enough , with nice hot water. All the other usual facilities such as clean water, Elsan and grey water drop. Also the very best thing is it’s just a five minute level walk from the campsite to the beautiful Porthleven harbour where you will find pubs, cafes, restaurants and shops.
Disliked All good no dislikes.
