What customers say
Great spot near Porthleven harbour, shops & restaurants. Spacious, level pitches, many with full services. Showers are hot, clean, powerful. Pub's a plus, but no food. Facilities mostly clean but a bit dated. Occasional road noise & water pressure issues noted.

Enjoyed our stay and would stay again.
Powered grass tent or RV campsite
Liked Short and easy walk to Porth Leven harbour which is beautiful. Clean showers and toilets and tidy and clean site.

Totally recommend
Primitive grass tent or trailer tent campsite
Liked Distance to town, staff, hot showers, pub on site and lovely staff. As a solo female, the pitch they gave me was next to showers and entrance so I didn’t have to walk through field.
Disliked Really loud live band until midnight

Location with easy access to wonderful coast line and things to do.
FHU cement/asphalt and grass travel trailer campsite
Liked Location , location , location! Easy access to Porth Leven, 5 mins walk to the harbour and all the lovely restaurants, shops and walks. The pitches were well spaced and the loo and shower block really clean with plenty of hot water. Staff were really helpful and we were glad we had read previous reviews advising us to go into the pub to find out our pitch number. We will definitely return to the site.
Disliked Our pitch was overlooked by residential properties , next time will request one on opp side.

FHU cement/asphalt and grass travel trailer campsite
Liked Great location only minutes to the harbour. Has an on site bar - not the ritz but perfect for a quick drink. Good facilities and nice sized pitches.
Disliked Nobody there to check you in. A little note on a door not very clear.

Excellent location for a Cornish holiday!
FHU cement/asphalt and grass travel trailer campsite
Liked Large flat pitches.
Quiet site with no noise late at night or early in the mornings.
Showers and toilets were functioning and clean enough.
Good washing up facilities.
Excellent location - walking distance from Porthleven, which is a gorgeous little Cornish town and close road access to lots of other beautiful parts of Cornwall!
Disliked Staff in 'Out of the Blue' were not very friendly and it put us off utilising the pub.

Great for access to Porthleven and surrounding areas.
Powered grass tent or RV campsite
Liked Excellent location for walking into Porthleven or for catching the bus to Helston or Penzance (via Marazion for St Michaels Mt). Porthleven is a bustling tourist spot in all the right ways; great food, nice shops and enjoyed watching everyone enjoying swimming in harbour.
Campsite is well laid out and the showers were fabulous. Pub/bar at entrance to campsite is great value.
Disliked We were in the bottom field which is right next to the main road into Porthleven so some traffic noise. Not a huge problem though.
10am vacate pitch time feels a bit early compared to other sites.
