What customers say

A small, friendly, well-kept campsite with spacious, private pitches. Guests love the clean facilities, especially the hot showers, and the helpful hosts. Generally quiet, but some mention road noise. Basic but functional facilities offer great value. Perfect base for exploring Cornwall.

#1B non-electric grass tent pitch (backpacker, no cars, small, two person)

Liked The host was kind and the was nice.

Disliked Sanitation was a bit old and rusty. It's right next to a busy way into Redruth and the highway is also quite close.

#1 electric grass pitch (large)

Liked A lot of space, easy to check in and close to what we wanted to visit. Friendly staff and calm site. Good facilities

Disliked It'd be good for the toilets to be closer to the tents. Also longer hours for the swimming pool. 10am is too late

#7 electric grass campervan, tent or trailer tent pitch (small)

Liked We loved the small and intimate nature of this site. No sprawling tents and vans over masses of fields. 7 very large pitches all separated by hedges. We recommend pitch 7 which is in the corner and very private.
Lashings of hot water in the free showers.
This was our 2nd visit and we will be back!

Good place, easy access, clean facilities and well kept.

Liked Nice place, easy to get to off the A30. Pitch is allocated when you book, no hassle when arriving. Quiet location, 2x toilets and 2 portable showers on site.
Large pitch, hook up and fairly private.

#1 electric grass pitch (large)

Liked Campsite was kept very well maintained and good size pitches.
Toilets and showers were kept very clean
Lovely little washing up area.
Close to a couple of supermarkets for supplies and park to take dog for a walk. Convient to visit different parks of Cornwall.
Hosts very friendly and great value for money.

Disliked Close to houses and main road which we were aware so it didn’t worry us.

Local attractions

Delve into the local geology at Cornwall Gold and Tolgus Mill, a fab heritage centre five minutes' drive from base. From there, you might like to set off to Porthtowan beach (10 minutes), a dog-friendly seaside spot with spectacular scenery, or you could learn more about flora and fauna from around the world at Feadon Wildlife Education Centre (10 minutes). Grownup activities in the local area include the greens at Tehidy Golf Course (10 minutes) and Healey's Cornish Cyder Farm (10 minutes), where you can sample some of the West Country's top apple-based tipples. There are also wineries to explore around the Camel Trail (35 minutes), an off-road cycle route that takes in a gorgeous stretch of Cornish countryside. Got kids to keep entertained? You might appreciate being so close to Paradise Park and JungleBarn Cornwall (15 minutes), a local activity centre that's pretty sure to keep them busy. The steam trains at Lappa Valley (25 minutes) and the cute animals at the Cornish Seal Sanctuary (30 minutes) are also pretty safe bets.
