Liked This is the best campsite I have used till date. The facilities were clean and tidy. Good privacy with partition hedges around the pitch. Amy was really friendly and welcoming. I would highly recommend this campsite and definitely visit again in the future.

Liked Spotlessly clean facilities, neat and tidy level pitches, views spectacular but only from the right spots.

Disliked No views from our pitch apart from hedges, very noisy work going on in the farmyard/barn, if you are pitched by the toilet block then the evening is accompanied by the constant flushing of the toilets.
The booking system gives a choice of pitches for motorhomes but doesn't say what the differences are - both were on gravel and with electric. We chose the one that also allows caravans. I think the one that also allows tents would have been better.

From the manager: Thank you very much for your custom and your review. All feedback is helpful to us so we really appreciate your comments and we can reflect on these to see if improvements can be made with future developments.

To clarify on pitch types the fully serviced touring pitches (4 in our paddock and 2 in our meadow) have gravel on the left hand side so are suitable for all touring vehicles, and include astro-turf strips for awnings. The 2 pitches that are allocated as fully serviced motorhome, campervan or tents (in our meadow) have gravel on the right hand side which does not suit UK caravans with doors on the left and, have no astro-turf for awnings. You are correct though that they all have electric, grey waste and water on them and this is included in the price. I will check that our pitch descriptions reflect this to help reduce any confusion.

We send you our best wishes for the rest of your summer.

Liked Amy made me feel welcome right away. She asked me whether I wanted my phone to be charged and if I could use a chair. I was really thankful for this, especially after a long day of hiking.

From the manager: Thank you very much Chiara for your custom and your lovely review and feedback. It was lovely meeting you and I'm pleased you enjoyed your stay. The chairs are magic after a long days hike so you are most welcome for this. Sending you our best wishes for a great remainder of your travels.

Liked Couldn't praise this site enough! From the moment of arrival to our last morning we couldn't find a single thing to fault.

Amy and Roger were brilliant people who made us feel welcome and at home and made the stay so much more memorable.

Location was very central to both north and south coasts of Cornwall, the views were fantastic on the site and the pitches were some of the best we have ever stayed in, private, sheltered and a very generous amount of space.

Facilities were on point and always clean and I believe more will be added in the future which is a bonus.

Just a little note on Roger (site warden who lives on the site in his van), it was lovely getting to know him. He has time for everyone and is always on hand to answer questions or help in anyway. He really did add that little bit extra to our stay at Hillcrest.

Already considering returning sooner rather than later but will certainly be back at some point in the future!

Liked Loved the privacy created by the hedges and the size of the pitch allowing us to have our vehicle next to us. The toilets and showers were spotless.
I really loved the view from our tent and the quiet of the area. We also found the hosts very friendly and helpful.

Liked Stayed for 4 nights with my dog Charlie and absolutely loved it. The site is immaculate. So clean and tidy. Roger and Amy do an amazing job keeping it spotless. Pitches have hedges on 3 sides so are nice and private. Beautiful views across a valley at the bottom of the paddock as well. It’s a nice peaceful site with not too many pitches but plenty of room for kids to play in the middle of the paddock. Great location for places like St Ives and Gwithian. It’s a no frills site. Just toilets, showers and washing up station but that’s what I liked about it. You can hire a fire pit or take your own and wood is also available to and it’s not too expensive. I was also really impressed with the price I paid for the 4 nights. Much cheaper than other sites in the area. Overall the perfect weekend in my favourite part of the country. I will 100% be staying there again.

Disliked I’ve seen a few other reviews moaning about the garage nearby revving car engines all day. I only heard it twice in 4 days and it really didn’t bother me at all. It only lasted a couple of seconds.
