Tregella Place Camping

Líbí se: Location and price.
Received a lovely text on the morning of arrival. See disliked for the rest of the story.

Nelíbí se: Facilities were not well maintained. Not cleaned regularly. Floor was always wet.
We called the number when we arrived as the sign and text requested. No answer, we waited 15 mins to see if anyone would call us back but nothing so decided to find a pitch. Not really an issue, thought it would be nice to check in.
There was live music on both evenings, on the Sunday evening it was clear that the entertainment was primarily for the staff/managers/owners friends birthday.
We were washing up after dinner and a lady approached us to ask if we would be going that evening. We had no ideas who she was. She the. Stated to a near by man. I will quickly check the toilets. She was gone about 2 mins and reappears with a small peddle bin from the gents. This had been full since we arrived.
I checked once she went back to the festivities and the floor was still wet and the toilet paper had not been filled up. Not quite sure what she was checking for.
Nice little site, the area for music etc was nice, it just felt like you weren’t really welcome as there were a lot of the staff etc friend arriving for the birthday evening.
We packed up in the morning and left with no issues.

I believe that when you are serving Alcohol (from the double decker bus) it would be nice to identify who was actually in charge of the venue, just in case of any disturbances etc.

Would be easy to improve on issues at this venue. It really depends on the owners. Will they read this as it is meant ( constructive criticism or will they see it as complaining and ignore it.

Od správce: Hello that wasn’t a birthday party, it was one of the campers birthday and the singer wanted everyone to sing to them. It was a nice unifying moment for the people attending the event. It was raining all day so naturally the floors do get wet, we provide the equipment to clear your muddy water off after you. If there are lots of people in the toilet I simply check there is soap and toilet paper, then clean it down when it’s empty.

Líbí se: Quick and easy to book, friendly welcome, nice shower block

Nelíbí se: No shelf in shower to store toiletries

Od správce: Thanks for staying, we will look into a shelf in the shower.

Líbí se: The shower/toilet block and the good communication and prices

Od správce: Thanks for staying with us, hope to see you again soon!

Líbí se: Location is good as it was only 30 mins walk into town across fields.

Nelíbí se: Showers lukewarm at best. Awful push button ones.

Very noisy on arrival thanks to a group of lads having a loud party in the middle. They left around 9.30pm and didn't return. Next day was empty and dikeng.

No reception as such. Just turn up and pitch.

Od správce: Hello I’m sorry you had this experience and it must have been quite frightening for you. We are a small family run site and that day happened to be my partner’s birthday, so we had gone out 5-7 for dinner.
As soon as we got back we were told about this behaviour (not by you though?) upon learning this we asked them to leave.
Sometimes situations occur and I am pleased that we were able to deal with it as soon as it was brought to our attention. There is a large sign with my phone number, which had you have rang it could have been dealt with sooner.
Larger, more corporate sites have a security team and are permanently staffed but it’s not something we are looking to do as we feel our customers enjoy how laid back the site is and that we can offer a new toilet and shower block with bar area, for just £20

Líbí se: Toilet facilities were very clean and modern.

It was a relatively cheap campsite near some attractions.

Quiet at night and lovely views

Nelíbí se: *no greeting and no directions on where to go to book in on arrival.
* food and bar were closed despite it being early September
*fields pretty uneven you will need chucks
*dogs allowed to roam there were 4 dogs spotted off lead in the one evening and morning we were there with no consequences or even supervision from site managers.
*site was a bit messy some rubbish from other guests didn't seem to be anyone around who checked / cleaned the grounds.

Líbí se: The site had an excellent toilet and shower block which seemed to be less than a year old, with everything clean and working. There were power sockets outside the block which could be used to charge mobile phones.
There was a pleasant view of rolling hills and farmland with sheep and a church tower in the distance.
The site was quiet at night and mostly quiet during the day.
My pitch was pretty much level.
There was a Tesco about 1 mile away which was very handy. There is also a cafe built into a garden centre in the other direction on the "A" road, although I never used it.
It is a 2-mile drive into Padstow on the "A" road and it's also possible to cycle there and back on cycle-friendly back-roads (although it's very hilly on the way back). I would not recommend cycling back on the "A" road as it is too busy.
You can walk on the coast-path from Padstow or take the ferry to Rock and walk the coast-path to Polzeath.
There are attractive coves/ beaches nearby.

Nelíbí se: There is no reception sign-posted, so I didn't know where to check in when I arrived which was confusing. Fortunately a member of staff greeted me soon after I arrived and said I could pitch anywhere.
No Wi-fi that I was aware of (could be taken as a plus!)

Od správce: Thanks for staying we have added a sign to direct you when you arrive.

Líbí se: Fabulous stay. We were warmly welcomed by Lucy and her Mum. Both were very friendly, thoughtful and cared about making sure we had the best stay possible. Mum was very kind and walked me back from the toilet block with her torch as it was dark. The toilet block is modern and cleaned regularly during each day. I recommend staying here.

Líbí se: It was just after the school summer holidays so was quiet. The shower/toilet block was nice and clean.

Nelíbí se: If you're going to use the men's showers don't use the middle one as it only runs for about 5 seconds before you have to press it again, and again, and again. And I'm guessing as it was after the school hoildays that is why the bar (in the bus) and the food trailer wasn't open, which was quite the selling point of the campsite, which was disappointing. Walking to Padstow is ok, although you have to go down a small lane (wouldn't want to do it at night).

Od správce: If you want to use the bar and catering you need to come during busier times. There were 4 people on site and it was a Wednesday. We are a family run site and do have children, we use mid week September to spend time with them as the cost of opening would outweigh any possible sales. The opening times are clearly stated in the text you are sent, on social media and on the pitch up site says during peak times. A more built up site would be able to open the bar at a loss as they charge more money for the stay.

Líbí se: Nice and relaxed campsite. You basically camp where you like. The live music was good and lots of people were singing along. The bus bar is a nice touch.

The shower and toilet block is modern and kept clean.

Nelíbí se: There are some long stay caravans set up at the bottom of the field and one night there was a lot of noise coming from one of them. Sounded like a party.

The washing up area is tiny and needs to be enlarged. There isn’t much room in the shower to dry and get dressed after the shower and the floor was wet.

Líbí se: Good pitch, nice grass, nice toilets, friendly staff and really cool show at night, they had an oasis lookalike and served drinks on tap inside a bus!!! Very cool and I was very impressed as were my two mates :)

Nelíbí se: Could’ve been a bit flatter for the tent pitches but it wasn’t too bad
