Powered grass caravan site
Liked: Beautiful corner of Cornwall with a tucked away site but still close enough to town/coast. Great facilities with an eco focus including showers, toilets, ‘wash up’ sinks which were very clean with plenty of hot water. Staff were helpful and friendly and site was very reasonably priced. Dogs welcomed on a lead and a designated field to let them off for a run. Particularly liked the access to a fridge and freezer as well as a ‘swap shop’ from books to toiletries. No traditional shop but had an honesty box with a few basics including logs. Designated campfire area and bbq’s welcomed.
Disliked: Road was very narrow getting to site and if you had a very large motor home it could be difficult to get to- but our transit van had no problems. Wi-Fi was limited
