What customers say
Spacious, private pitches with hedges, spotless facilities, and breathtaking views. Owners are super friendly and helpful! Great spot for exploring Cornwall. A few found the entrance tricky and there's occasional workshop noise, but the owners are sorting it.

Good site 👍
Power optional grass campervan, tent or trailer tent site
Liked Spacious pitches, absolutely loved the hedging and the site is immaculate! The arrival instructions and pre-info were great. What we paid was great too, we used it as a base to explore St Ives. We booked really late and our booking was accommodated easily.
Disliked Only comment i have is that the shower/toilet block was absolutely freezing. My 7 year old was shivering in the shower and to be fair i wasn't much warmer either. The door seems to always be open, I did shut it but then someone opened it back up again. Also the lights at night were minimal, none of them were on when we were walking to the toilet block.

We stayed here for one night…
Fully-serviced grass and gravel caravan site
Liked We stayed here for one night in October and really enjoyed the peaceful setting. The site is quiet, and feels fairly isolated despite being a short walk from the village. It only has a small number of pitches, which made it feel private and relaxing. The views across the countryside are lovely and it’s a great place to unwind.
Facilities are clean and well maintained, and it was such a treat to have a proper hot shower after a rainy autumn walk.
The owner was very friendly and welcoming, meeting us on arrival, showing us around, and recommending some great local places for dinner and things to see nearby.
Although we only stayed for one night, we could have easily stayed longer. It’s a simple, well-kept site in a beautiful, peaceful location — perfect for a quiet countryside break.

From the manager: That you Katy for such a lovely review and for both of you coming to stay with us. It was our pleasure hosting for you and I'm really pleased you enjoyed your short stay. We love meeting like-minded folk that enjoy the simplicities that can be easily available to us. Sending you both our best wishes for the rest of your year!
