Assigned non-electric grass tent or motorhome pitch (large)

Liked: Lots of things! The friendly surfboard makers and the nice walks around the site. Lots of interesting and innovative ideas including the car tyre amphitheatre and the bottle windows. The kettle was very handy. Enjoyed a number of interesting chats with other visitors. Great rabbits.

Disliked: Please change your keg beers and support your local microbreweries.

Electric grass touring pitch

Liked: We really loved the layout of the campsite. The kids were able to safely run free, lots of areas for hide and seek, plenty of space for them to ride their bikes. Beautiful views of the surrounding countryside. Excellent facilities. Really lovely walk down the hill to the beach.

Assigned non-electric grass tent or motorhome pitch (large)

Liked: Lovely setting with wonderful views of the rolling hills. Nice spacious pitches and great facilities.

Disliked: On the Saturday night an outdoor cinema was shown for children and it was inescapably loud. It ruined the serenity of the campsite for us and we were forced to play music to try to drown out 1.5 hours of a kids animation (from 8:30 - 10pm!). I will now be on the lookout for this kind of thing at campgrounds as it was not what I want from a camping experience.

Electric hardstanding and grass pitch

Liked: Not for us ok for the 1 night we stayed it is a peaceful site. We just did not fit in felt like we did not belong there. They did not even know what we had or what pitch.

Disliked: Not for me to comment you need to make your own mind up.

Local attractions

Porthtowan beach will almost certainly be your first stop (possibly even the very minute you’ve dropped your bags off) but then what? Well, perhaps a walk along the South West Coast Path to see some more of that coastal scenery (Chapel Porth and the Wheal Coates mine are not far off), or a direct route to one of the other gorgeous beaches – perhaps Gwithian (15 minutes’ drive) or Perranporth (20 minutes). A stop in the lovely village of St Agnes (10 minutes) is a must, and art lovers will surely also want to head over to St Ives (25 minutes) to explore Tate St Ives and the Barbara Hepworth Museum. The north Cornwall coast has plenty to keep you busy for many a day, but if you fancy a change of scenery it’s not far to get to the south coast for days at Falmouth, Trebah Garden, Glendurgan Garden and Gyllyngvase beach (all about half an hour away).
