Ik was blij met: Lovely little site - a very relaxing stay. First time using this sort of compost loo and both my son and I were pleasantly surprised how clean and efficient it was. Lovely spacious showers. Very friendly and informative owners/staff. Amazing breakfast, and other food throughout the day which we didn’t have chance to try. Only thing missing was a drying area for wetsuits, but didn’t really expect it on this smaller site.

Ik was blij met: The location, very peaceful and yet close to the A30, nice pubs nearby but not quite walkable. Eco friendly. Lovely owners. Discounts on bike hire on site.

Ik was niet zo blij met: Shower draining needs a little improvement.

Ik was blij met: Elm Farm is a fantastic site run by a lovely couple who have managed to keep all the lovely bits of camping in a well maintained site that is also relaxed and respectful to the environment. Toilets and showers are are clean - spacious showers with plenty of hooks and hot water. Even in mid-August, I only had to wait 5 mins for a shower on one occasion during our week long stay. The cafe serves a fantastic freshly-cooked breakfast and coffee. The surrounding beaches, coast path and mining trails are great for walking, running and cycling. It was the perfect site for us to use as basecamp while being on hand for teens at Boardmasters! Thank you Ali and Reuben.

Ik was blij met: Lovely level, well kept field. Peaceful at night. Easy walk to the footpath to Portreath, which forms part of the Coast to Coast Bissoe cycle trail, which I walked one way. Composting toilets were extremely efficient, first time using this style of toilet and actually found them a far more pleasant experience than many of the traditional loos on sites we've stay on previously. The Bridge Inn is within an easy walking distance, but just be aware, this is a very "traditional" pub with an extremely small (one item on a Friday night) menu, but with a pleasant beer garden by a small river!

Ik was niet zo blij met: Minor point, but branches overhanging the narrow track to the second field could do with some pruning as vehicles driving off the track to avoid scraping their sides had caused it to become muddy after a spell of wet weather.

Ik was blij met: A lovely, little campsite with lots of charm and a chilled-out atmosphere. Well-kept, eco-friendly facilities (composting loos, solar panels, wild meadows, bikes to hire). The pitches were flat, showers were hot, and the toilets clean (and not too far away!). The owners were friendly and relaxed, with a cute on-site cafe/bar, a little campers 'barn' to charge devices and use the fridge, and even al-fresco ping-pong. We loved being able to walk down very quiet back lanes to get to the coastal path and then onto the beach. Being close to all the north coast beaches but away from the masses made for a stress-free time.

Ik was blij met: Very nice little campsite. Only stayed one night as we were hiking the south west coast path, but would happily return. Flat field to pitch in. Wash up area, excellent eco composting loos and great showers (4x large shower rooms with plenty hot water and hooks to hang your gear, also a hand basin in each shower room). These were down by the camping pitches. Also free WiFi and charging facilities and extra 'regular' flush loos by reception, which is also a lovely little cafe. We had cream teas without the tea - I had cider instead with mine! There was some great sounding food on the menu too but our hiking schedule meant we didn't have time to stay and try the savoury dishes, maybe next time.
