Liked: Beautiful location and a wonderful relaxed camp site. Enjoyed evening walks on the moor and it's easy to access to both sides of the Cornish coast. The campsite is spacious and has everything you need. You can choose your own space, campfires allowed, clean toilets and showers, communal fridge and freezer for ice packs. Loved seeing all the animals, they are a highlight!

Liked: Lovely clean site, really friendly owners. Working farm but not covered in flies like some working farm campsites can be! Lots of different fields to choose from. Great showers, really spacious. Freezer for cool blocks and a reception area with a kettle for 'emergency' teas (our tent porch pole decided to give up just as the rain really started, and sitting in the wet next to a gas stove didn't really appeal!). Great area, lovely walk right from the campsite. The indoor play area was fantastic as the weather was very changeable, but the outside play area also looked great. Free wifi at a certain part of the site, with a covered bench next to it.

Unpowered grass tent or campervan site
Liked: We booked in for 2 nights camping but ended up adding another day on as it is such a tranquil campsite. It started off with about 10 groups but by the last day there was only 3. We planned on exploring the area but we was having such a chilled stay we didn't feel the need too. They have a little park and sand area that kept our children entertained the whole time and there was ample space. The toilets and showers are spotless and very good. They have a small fridge and freezer which we used for small bits and place to do laundry. We had a perfect stay and can not say thank you enough.
Disliked: It went to fast and wish we could have stayed longer

Liked: The hedges dividing the camping fields, full of birds. The local walks. The moors surrounding the farm. The family running the farm and camping. The water heated by the sun. The clean facilities.
Disliked: The plunge taps in the ladies toilets are very stiff to push. The water jets out a bit fast and sprays everywhere.

Liked: Amazing site, we loved the fact that you could pitch where you wanted. The facilities on site are amazing, an indoor toy section for younger children and a play barn sand area. My older children enjoyed the table tennis. Toilets (it was a nice touch having music being played in the toilets) and showers are super clean. We very much enjoyed the lamb burgers and the dutch oven campfire cook set which we purchased on site. Having a lockable charging cabinet was a great idea. It gave the site a lovely feel to see all the turkey, ducks and chickens roaming about. Honestly this site is so well thought out, we thoroughly enjoyed our Stay.
Disliked: Nothing, it was perfect.
