Merry Meadows Farm

Mi è piaciuto We really enjoyed our stay on the farm.
We were very impressed with the facilities which we understood would be very basic from the site description and pictures. However, we were pleasantly surprised. The shower shack was not only easy to use but quite pleasant with hot water, high pressure and a view out across the field (if you're tall enough) while still feeling private. The compost toilets were also pretty neat and surprisingly stink free thanks to the urine separator (the info on how it works is on the stall walls and makes for an interesting read while on the bog).
We were lucky enough to have the place to ourselves (besides rabbits & owls) and and enjoyed the country atmosphere.
It was a great location for exploring local sites by car. Less than 10 mins to the Eden project, 20-30 mins to Heligan, Mevagissey, Polkerris and Fowey, all worth a visit and many more places (including on the N coast) only 45 mins away.
Our host, Ruth, messaged before our check in and greeted us on arrival. She let us know we could contact her at any point by phone or a knock on the door, if we needed anything. She let us pick where to pitch our tent. Overall a very welcoming experience.

Non mi è piaciuto The grass was quite long and dewy while we were there but our host did explain this was due to the relentless rain prior to our stay (Sept 2023) so this is understandable.

The ground closest to the facilities was slightly bumpy. This was not a problem for us as we had an air mattress. If you only have a ground mat, it may be worth searching/asking for a smoother spot.
