Blackthorn Campsite

Likte As a family of 4 we really enjoyed our stay at Blackthorn. Boasting extra large pitches and lovely peaceful setting. It was a lovely alternative to other campsites we had stayed at across the week, less really was more for us, and it was great for the family to have a peaceful night. Beautifully clean, and really good showers and bathrooms and washing up facilities. Owners really welcoming! We will definitely return.

Likte Lovely site with good level pitches. Facilities were first-rate and spotlessly clean. Lots of hot water, loo roll etc. Staff were friendly and all trackways and roads well-maintained. Very quiet and peaceful. It was so nice and convenient that we stayed longer than expected.
The village is a short walk away for pub, chip shop, Spa etc. There are animals in a paddock nearby that love people.

Likte ikke Nothing.

Likte A peaceful pleasant location with generous pitches.

A very friendly owner greeted us upon arrival & attended promptly when we had an issue with the EHU at night.

Donkeys goats & chickens are a nice touch, especially for families with small children.

Okay for an en-route stopover .

Likte ikke Just the one toilet / shower & one separate WC. Not the fault of the site but the person before me left the shower dirty with muddy footprints everywhere.

Hard to find from the main road, drove past the end of the lane twice. Look for the industrial units.

Somewhat expensive for the facilities provided when you can get everything this site offers (apart from the ehu) in Tintagel car park for £6 per night.

Fra bestyreren: Thank you for your feedback. We’re a small, peaceful site with only 5 pitches, so 2 toilets and 1 shower are usually sufficient, we’re upgrading to 3 showers and 4 toilets this winter to accommodate more guests and pitches. Our prices reflect the space, views, and tranquillity we offer—not a crowded “car park style” campsite—and unlike many others, we don’t charge extra for facilities. The details are clearly listed on Pitch up, so we’re sorry if it wasn’t what you were looking for.

Likte Warm welcome. Pristine site. Small overall yet spacious green area

Likte Peaceful, clean site which felt secluded but was close to local amenities. Very basic but clean facilities. We were lucky to have perfect weather.

Likte Large gravel pitch!

Likte ikke There was only one shower and two toilets for the whole site — completely inadequate and always busy. The place was extremely boring with absolutely nothing to do. The so-called village pub nearby should honestly close its doors; the food was vile and barely edible. Even the local shop felt stuck in the past, outdated and poorly stocked. Overall, I would not recommend staying here.

Fra bestyreren: Hi Lisa
Thank you for your feedback. We’re sorry to hear that our campsite didn’t meet your expectations. We’d like to reassure you that our facilities are regularly cleaned and maintained, and many of our visitors value the peace and tidiness of the site.

Ours is not a large commercial park with entertainment or busy facilities, but rather a small, quiet village location where guests come to relax and enjoy the calm surroundings. We understand this may not be the right fit for everyone, but we’re glad we can provide the kind of atmosphere that many of our regular guests appreciate.

We wish you well in finding a site and location better suited to your preferences in the future.

Likte Rural site with good quality shower / toilet facilities and dishwashing area. All perfectly clean. Within walking distance to a local pub, The Bettle and Chissel.

Likte ikke Pitches a little close together as caravans and awnings spread out, so it feels a tad claustrophobic. No off-lead dog walk on site.

Likte Peace and quiet, very clean facilities, large pitches.

Likte ikke Tiny, if spotlessly clean, toilet facility. Shower gave a choice of a hot dribble or cold with decent pressure. (I opted for lukewarm.)
