What customers say
Chill spot, basic campsite, heaps of room & great country views. Friendly, helpful owner, clean loos & showers, top value. Narrow roads & slopey sites noted, but great for a cruisy, back-to-basics hols.

Liked The owner Richard is so nice and very helpful is always around for you to ask anything about the local area.
It’s very good for the price.
It’s very close to the Eden project if that is somewhere you want to go.
There is plenty of space even with the electric hook ups.
All the toilets and shower’s although basic are clean always stocked with loo roll.
There is very little light at night so if you wanted to star gaze then this would be a grate place.
Is an easy base for seeing a lot of Cornwall.
Good signs to it
Can be quiet and peaceful.
Water points are dotted around the whole site
Richard comes around daily just to check and make sure the toilets are clean and tidy and everything is ok.
Was told when we arrived that the showers were playing up
Very honest
This is our 2nd visit and it’s always a work in progress and Richard is always making changes that are making the camping field better and better we will definitely be back again and always have a grate time when we stay it’s not everyone’s cup of tea but we like it.
Disliked These didn’t bother us but just being honest.
The roads are very narrow if you don’t like narrow roads then prob not the best place to go.
It is very basic but again very clean
Some campers can play loud music till late at night (this was only 1 night and then back to quite)
Is a hill but are some flat areas
You’re not told where to pitch up so you could come back from a day out and have someone pitched really close to you.
The showers are very hit and miss with the temperature.
Some areas are a good distance to the toilet although the porter loos are dotted around the whole site and were clean.

From the manager: Thank you Andy for your review
We are a back to basic campsite with good clean facilities unfortunately the water heater broken down but still work. Most campers can cope with this and understand the situation . Your family struggle to cope with everything so this campsite didn't suit your needs . When I use to milk cows we had artic lorry's delivered corn about 24 tons then there was milk lorry which hold 24 000 thousand litres they cope with a single lane . This is Cornwall we are no snowflakes
We are in a SSSI area that's why The camping field blends into this beautiful area
Hopefully you find a camsite that suits your needs
Happy camping Richard
Great little basic site.
Unpowered grass site
Liked Very spacious. Well signposted. Fab check in times. Lovely and quiet. Great basic camping. Clean portaloos and showers. Super price. Will defuse again.
Disliked Shower was hot and cold- but I think probably because someone was washing up at the same time. Didn’t put us off though.
