What customers say
A grand spot for a break, this campsite's well-located for beaches and all you need. Owners are sound, pitches are good size, and there's handy fridge, freezer, and charging bits. Toilets and showers are a bit old-fashioned for some, and could do with a bit of a spruce-up, but they're working on it.

Anonymous Non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch
Liked Beautiful area, and the lack of light at night meant that star gazing could be done perfectly.
I've never seen the milk way look like that.
Good sizes toilet block, multiple showers, good sized area to pitch meant you weren't on top of one another!
Disliked Only complaints will be the lack of bin space (there were a few families camped, so ALOT of rubbish in the bin meant it had begun to overflow)
And it not being quite as close to Padstow as we thought (we weren't driving so had to get taxis in, online it stipulates about a mile out of Padstow, when it's actually 2.5)
Other than that, amazing little place.

Non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch
Liked I chose Tresco Farm as they had a great price for solo travellers which I'd not seen before and it had a freezer! Turns out it was a fridge/freezer, those who rely on cool boxes while camping will know they can only work so hard, so a freezer for the blocks was a great idea, the fridge was a bonus. Also having phone charging facilities 10/10. Shower and toilet blocks were clean and maintained. Kitchen area was also clean and everything you need including a kettle and microwave. Pitched where you wanted, plenty of space. Close to St Merryn village which had a Spar, fish n chip shop, Chinese takeaway, pub serving food and a petrol station. Just under 2 miles from the beach. As a solo traveller I felt safe and had everything I needed.
Disliked Nothing to dislike.

Non-electric grass motorhome pitch
Liked Great communication from owner, flexible to add on another person at short notice after booking. Basic facilities but perfectly functional and great for low cost price paid. Plenty of space to pitch. Suggest having chocks/blocks if in a van in case no flat spaces left.

Non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch
Liked The chilled atmosphere how close to the beaches it is being able to use a fridge and freezer it's never toooooo busy!! Toilets kept on top off throughout our stay the kids had freedom to roam around all in all would definitely be back!!
Disliked Not a dislike more just a bit of feedback the two old cubicles that were showers could be turned into toilets to avoid a queue that would sometimes form not often but sometimes 🙈 and that is me being picky we love this campsite!!!
