Primitive grass campsite

Liked: Beautiful location, lots of room, super clean toilet and showers. Very friendly owner, always there to help his campers. It was great that he helped us to get down the road safely with our caravan on the way back.

Disliked: The last part of the road to the campsite, Cornish country road, is very narrow, with oncoming cars or even a van. When towing a caravan this can be a bit challenging.

Maxine O. The reviewer booked through Pitchup.com

Primitive grass campsite

Liked: Absolutely everything. We only stayed for one night but arrived in the middle of the afternoon and left teatime the following day. Richard is the nicest man and so friendly and helpful. The showers and toilets were spotless. Fantastic views and plenty of room to pitch wherever you want. The weather was great and we just had the best time that was desperately needed just to chill out and lay about in the sun with plenty of tea and a couple of bbq’s. All we could hear were birds singing. The price was fabulous compared to other wild camp sites even offer hot water to shower in. No wfi but we had signal… but why would you need WiFi if you intend like us to get away from all that for a break..We are definitely going to go back to enjoy more stress free days to chill out and relax.

Disliked: Nothing

Primitive grass campsite

Liked: It was the perfect site for an overnight stop while we were touring around the south coast. Peaceful site with beautiful views, facilities were very clean and Richard the owner was incredibly friendly. The site was exactly as described, I wish there were more sites like this around the country as they are perfect for campervan stops. I will definitely use again and recommend to others.

louise g. The reviewer booked through Pitchup.com

Powered grass campsite

Liked: The camping field is as described plenty of space to park or pitch a tent without being on top of others. There’s 2 showers available in a wooden hut, nice hot water and quite powerful showers, if the other cubicle is being used your water temp can change though. Porta loos available, we didn’t use them but saw the owner checking and cleaning them regularly. Water taps dotted around for use. Chemical disposal available. Absolutely stunning views all around. Tight narrow road leading to the site but we managed it in an xlwb van so accessible for most vehicles. Owner very friendly, lots of information on walks, where the local village shop is etc. EHU available. Was allowed to pick where we wanted to park up. Gave it 4 stars Purley because small group of teens/young adults revving their car engine on and off for an hour early evening. If we’re passing through Bodmin again we will return.

Powered grass campsite

Liked: Simplicity of the site, 2 great showers, a couple of portaloos, a washing up area (big enough to bath a child in!) and a chemical disposal point. Plenty of water taps and the electric hook up we had was fine. Set in lovely countryside, views, sunsets and dark sky were brilliant. Richard was on hand all the time and seemed to be always checking and cleaning the facilities. Couple of pubs not too far far away, one on the Saints Way, about a miles walk. Firewood for your firepit available from Richard.

Disliked: A table or shelf would be useful in the washing up area to put your items on.

Primitive grass campsite

Liked: Back to basics site with toilet, shower, chemical disposal and bins. Fire pits allowed, bbq allowed, THE most amazing night sky. Really dark so lots of stars and super quiet, resident owl somewhere around, just a super peaceful place to escape to. Plenty of walks and accessible to main roads if needed.

From the manager: Thank you Kayleigh for your lovely review I glad you both enjoyed sitting around your fire gazing upon the stars that's what's camping is all about Hope to see you both soon Happy camping Richard

Local attractions

Screech Owl Sanctuary (20 minutes’ drive) is home to more than just owls, though these are really rather lovely to handle and admire in the regular flying displays. Other residents include emus, alpacas and wallabies, which you can meet, pet and feed (advance booking is recommended). Also on site are a playground and a café serving delicious homemade cakes. If you're travelling with young children, they might like the rides at Camel Creek Family Theme Park (30 minutes), which include a floral take on spinning teacups, a gentle drop tower and a water-fight ground with fillable balloons, plus soft-play areas. At the restored Lost Gardens of Heligan (40 minutes), you can stroll through themed areas such as the Productive Gardens, growing a bounty of fruit and veg; the Pleasure Grounds, dotted with statuary and fountains; and the Jungle, a lush area of tropical palm trees, banana plantations and bamboo tunnels.
