Liked: Norma was brilliant! The site is a lovely small site with perfect facilities. Everything was clean and well maintained! The donkey’s were brilliant for the kids! They got to feed them daily, and they (the donkeys) were super excited! 🫏 Norma offer fire pits and a range of pasties and sausage rolls, which were all brilliant!

Liked: Thaw site was beautifully kept and the owner couldn’t do enough to help.

Disliked: Only one shower for women and one for men, not enough really for the amount of pitches there is.

Power optional cement/asphalt and grass travel trailer campsite

Liked: What a gem !! We really enjoyed our time here, the lady that runs it never stops, she is amazing and is always on hand, the pitches are very spacious and well maintained, loved the friendly donkeys, we did the firepit deal, which included kindling, skewers and marshmallows, pasties can be made to order, Will definately be returning as the site is open all year round

Disliked: Dont want to dislike as it's a great place which is kept spotless, the facilities are very minimal so had to wait sometimes for showers or washing up but never found that a problem as all campers were friendly

Power optional grass tent campsite

Liked: Fabulous hosts with a really well looked after campsite - everything you could need on site along with some bonus extras like freshly baked pasties, fresh coffees and fire pits with marshmallows! Shower/toilet facilities were always lovely and clean and well maintained! Lovely woodland walk on site and lots of lovely farm animals surrounding to give us a wake up call in the morning, really loved the separate kids play area as well.

Local attractions

Cornwall’s Eden Project is 25 minutes from the site for perusing plants from different environments and climates under two biomes set in an old china clay pit; if you’re into your landscaping, the pristine nature around Pencarrow House (also 25 minutes away) and the 200 acres of outdoor space at The Lost Gardens of Heligan (45 minutes) are well worth a look too. Seeking surf? The waves of Watergate Bay, Fistral beach and Holywell Bay are all 40 minutes from the site if you’ve a wetsuit and board to hand, while kayak rental can be had at Polkerris beach 35 minutes' drive away. Sort other watersports inland at Siblyback Lake (half an hour), where raft building, paddleboarding and fishing are all available. Golitha Falls (20 minutes from the site) is on the way too.
