Liked: Biking trails, closeness to Lydford Gorge . Good sized pitches very friendly owners. Grass kept short, no flooding at all. Very quiet. Close to a bike repair shop that sold pizzas etc and drinks.
Disliked: A bit near to the main road so traffic noise was always there but we knew this before we arrived. Showers could do with refurbishment but looks like all the site is a work in progress.

Not one that we would use again unfortunately

Liked: The site was very nice and well maintained .Amenities there was good.The pitches were nice and level and staff very friendly.
Disliked: The only dislike was that there was constant road noise from the A30 which never stops. We stayed for 2 nights but ideal for a stop over for 1 night

Liked: Definitely want to stay here again! Owners were so friendly and helpful, the facilities/showers are very clean, well stocked and heated, and the pitches are very spacious. This is a fantastic location for the Granite Way for cycling or walking, and the Pump and Pedal is right next door, where they do food and drinks from 10am to 8pm. Highly recommend!
Disliked: Absolutely Nothing.
