Bell tent
Liked We had a lovely stay at Geevor bell tent as an adult and child. The tent itself was lovely, clean, comfortable and really cosy, and we had everything we needed for a relaxing stay.
We needed to bring our own cooking equipment, which was absolutely no issue for us. Normally a fire pit is provided, but understandably, due to the weather conditions and national fire alerts during our stay, we weren’t able to have a fire.
The location of the site is fantastic. It’s around 5 minutes from a supermarket and about 5 minutes from Portreath Beach, but despite being so close to everything, the site itself felt like it was in the middle of nowhere. It was incredibly peaceful, and when we stayed there were no more than four other families on site. There was plenty of space for the children to run around and play without disturbing anyone else.
There was table tennis available, as well as a large container full of games, which was a lovely touch and kept us entertained.
The showers were lovely and hot and were always clean. My only suggestion would be to have some sort of shelter over the hooks where you leave your towels, as these are outside the shower cubicles and aren’t protected from the rain. When the weather is dry, it isn’t an issue at all and it’s actually lovely being outside.
The toilets are compost toilets. This wasn’t an issue for me at all, although my child wasn’t particularly keen on them! 😂 They were always clean, and toilet roll was provided. There was also hand soap and an outside tap for washing your hands, as well as a washing-up area for cleaning dishes.
The site is quite basic, but for us that was exactly what we wanted. It was peaceful, relaxed and had everything we needed. We were also lucky enough to enjoy some amazing sunsets in the evenings, which really made the stay special. 🌅
There is a locked gate to access the site, and we were sent the gate code before arrival along with the What3Words location, which made finding and accessing the site really easy.
The owners came up daily to clean the facilities and were lovely and friendly. They also gave us some great tips and recommendations for the local area. Before arriving, I messaged them with a few questions and they responded really quickly, which was really reassuring.
Overall, we had a fantastic stay and would definitely recommend. It’s a beautiful, peaceful little site in a brilliant location, and we would absolutely return again! ❤️🏕️
Disliked There was nothing to dislike.

Liked Lovely campsite. staff were very welcoming, and happy to help with any enquiries. They have a fridge in reception which sells cold drinks, there is a garage up there road which sells everything, and a co-op not too far. There is a play area near the entrance for the kids. And a food hut on field 2 which does breakfast up until 11am then pizzas of an evening. We had the pizzas and they were lovely.
The toilet and shower blocks were very clean and well stocked.
There is washing up areas plus a laundry room.
