What customers say
A neat, clean spot with really friendly, helpful staff. Guests loved the facilities, especially the warm, spotless showers and the tasty food and drinks. The quiet vibe and good location for exploring were big pluses. Just a heads-up on possible Wi-Fi fees and a few pitches needing a bit of work.

Great park and lovely area. Great camping pitch/area
Electric grass tent pitch
Liked Great site
Quiet area
Good little playpark
Clean campsite
Good & clean toilet & wash areas
Great pub/drink area
Friendly staff
Disliked 1 little spoiler:
Took my 6yr old daughter to toilet and got told off by a worker/cleaner that I wasn't allowed to do this.
It was just myself & daughter on a camping trip
Tried to ask him if he worked there and he was very cagey. But was cleaning/wiping showers down so I presume he did work there
Made my daughter feel like scared! He wasn't pleasant!

Campsite was in a lovely location and the site was lovely, kids…
Electric grass tent pitch
Liked Campsite was in a lovely location and the site was lovely, kids park was brilliant
Disliked The toilets could have been cleaner, but I do think this was down to a few teenagers that kept messing about in them and blocking the sinks and toilets with ripped up leaflets. The pitches were a little close together for tents, only half of them were taken and I think if the fields was fully booked I can imagine it would have been a bit cramped.

From the manager: Thank you for taking the time to share your stay with us. It certainly sounds like your young children enjoyed the play park. We hope to see you all again real soon, on your next visit.

Best site stayed at on our tour of Cornwall and Devon
Fully-serviced gravel and hardstanding touring pitch (premium)
Liked Lovely quiet site, large field to exercise the dog. More importantly the welcome we received was second to none and bar staff very welcoming too.
Disliked Was a bit to close to road, but had a hedge between that did softened the noise a bit.
