What customers say

Fantastic, peaceful spot near the beach & Rock. Spacious, flat pitches, lovely pond. Basic showers (50p), portaloos can get smelly. Narrow lanes may challenge larger RVs.

Claire M.

Meadow 2 primitive grass campervan campsite

Liked Lovely quiet little field very close to the cute little Porthilly Cove beach. 2 portaloos and rubbish/recycling etc. There’s a little pond with picnic benches and fairy lights and tons of bats at dusk 🖤
Lovely walking in the area. We walked through Rock to Daymer bay for a dip and also walked up to the Sharps taproom which was ace.
So easy to book via pitch up and owner Luke sent a confirmation email with excellent directions ( via a very small lane).
This is not a site ( or location in general ) for bigger motorhome as the lanes are Cornishly tiny .

Disliked Nothing.

Meadow 2 primitive grass tent campsite

Liked The campsite was in a really beautiful location , level ground for pitching a tent. Luke was really friendly and his adorable dog Ralphy was a very welcome visitor

Disliked Portaloos were sometimes a bit pongy and around the water tap was sometimes muddy
