What customers say
Great spot for a quiet, rural escape with ace views near Newquay. Owners are super friendly and helpful. Portaloos and water are clean. Plenty of room to pitch up. Access road can be a bit rough, but there are other ways. Solar shower trialled July 2026.

Liked Owner was friendly and approachable. There was plenty of space to pitch are tent. We also booked the day before we were due to stay and this caused no issues, super affordable as well. Another bonus was that it was an easy walk after getting the bus to the nearest stop.
