What customers say

This campsite earns praise for cleanliness, friendly staff, and stunning views. Guests loved the modern, spotless facilities, including individual shower pods. The on-site restaurant is a hit. Pitches are level & spacious. Minor notes: some showers are small, metered electricity costs extra. Peaceful & well-maintained.

Mike W.

Primitive cement/asphalt and grass travel trailer campsite

Liked The site has great views overlooking the Lynher valley towards Bodmin Moor. The layout is spacious with level gravel hardstanding pitches and well mown grass. It is all clean and well maintained.

The facilties were kept clean and fresh.

The Engine House restaurant was good food at good value prices.

Disliked The shower cubicals are very small! It is difficult to reach down to pick up the shower gel from the floor and was almost impossible to shower without wetting your hair!

A few more water taps around the site would be good.

Local attractions

See the sights of Cornwall, west Devon, Plymouth and Dartmoor with royal ease from Compton Park via the easily accessible A38 and A30 roads or by taking a train from Gunnislake two miles away along the Tamar Valley line to the Bere Peninsula and Plymouth. On foot, stride among the scenery, wildlife and mines of Kit Hill Country Park: climb to the stack at the top of the hill for spectacular views over Bodmin Moor. Go east for 386 square miles of walking, climbing or cantering at Dartmoor, and south-east to Plymouth for fathoms' worth of maritime heritage including the National Marine Aquarium and famed Plymouth Hoe. To the north and south, days (weeks?) of splashing can be had at Cornwall's safe and clean family beaches and at the watersports activities of Roadford and Siblyback lakes. Make for award-winning Morwellham Quay on the Tamar for more mining history, part of a UNESCO World Heritage Site covering the industrial heritage of Cornwall and Devon. If historic houses are more your heritage thing, both counties come with heaps of heritage buildings and gardens including lovely Lanhydrock at Bodmin and 700 year old Buckland Abbey at Yelverton. For smalls, the Tamar Valley Donkey Park and play barn or a puff on the steam railways at Launceston and Bodmin should see them sorted, while family days out at the lush Eden Project are about 45 minutes' drive away.
