What customers say
Spotless site, spacious pitches (some with tables), and super friendly owners. Toilets and showers are modern. Peaceful, central for Cornwall exploring. WiFi can be patchy, water flow brief, and no kids' play area sometimes mentioned. Highly recommended, people want to go back.

Stargazey 2 bedroom cabin
Liked We werden welkom geheten door de eigenaresse (en bij toeval omdat we te vroeg waren ook de schoonmaakster). Een hartelijk ontvangst, de eigenaresse deed een rondleiding over de camping en de faciliteiten. Bij binnenkomst in het huisje stonden er scones met clotted cream, aardbeienjam en verse aardbeien voor ons klaar.
De camping zag er verzorgd uit, was erg netjes en schoon. De plekken voor tenten/ caravans zijn zeer ruim. Wc's, douches en wasgelegenheden zijn ruim opgezet en worden dagelijks goed schoongemaakt. Het gehuurde huisjes was zeer volledig ingericht. We hebben niet iets gemist en als het wel zo was konden we de eigenaresse bellen/ appen (hebben we dus niet hoeven te doen). De eigenaresse was zeer toegankelijk en vriendelijk.
Disliked De Wifi had niet altijd even goede kwaliteit/ bereik maar over het algemeen deed die het prima. We hebben eigenlijk geen punten ontdekt waar we niet blij mee waren ;-).

Electric grass pitch
Liked We really liked the campsite. Every pitch has his own picknic table, witch we didn't use because of the weather.
The pitches are large and with electricity.
Disliked What we didn't was the duration of the waterflow of the showers. It is really short.

Electric grass pitch
Liked Our stay was immense from start to finish. The owner was super welcoming and has really done a top job with this site which is clearly very well looked after. The location is awesome for doing many of Cornwall’s sights and beaches so was an excellent base. The campsite is very well laid out with plenty of space on each pitch and the picnic tables were great. The facilities were some of the cleanest and well-kept we’ve seen and importantly for us super child friendly. The showers were spacious and hot and the toilets were immaculate with wipes provided for the seats. The washing machine and dryer were also available and for £1 we were able to dry all of our towels very quickly. The Wi-Fi signal was also amazing much more our children’s satisfaction. We will most definitely return. Thank you.

Electric grass pitch
Liked Exceptionally clean shower/toilet block and separate washing up area. The pitches are very good sizes which means you have space between neighbours.
Hosts are very friendly and happy to help at all times!
Perfect base to explore where you feel like you’re in the middle of nowhere but yet close enough to all amenities without having to travel far! Would recommend this campsite to everyone!
