Third time visiting this site. The location is just perfect with views to the sea and beautiful sunrises if you come later in the year. Plenty of facilities on site and very friendly staff. Will be returning next year for sure!

Great location, peaceful and great views

Motorhome - Electric Grass PitchesMay 2024

A lovely, quiet spot with fantastic views of surrounding countryside and plenty of open space for children to play. The walk to the beach is about 1.5 miles through woodland and over the hills along footpaths and the views are glorious. Sadly, the facilities are old, and basic. The shower was only ever lukewarm and the dishwashing area only has cold water, although a kettle is provided. None of this would be a problem if it was reflected in the price. The charge per night is the same as sites with modern shower and toilet facilities. Although, Cornwall is generally very expensive, as we discovered.

Loved it!

Medium Tent - Non Electric Grass PitchesMay 2024

Simple camping with good facilities in a gorgeous field. Outstanding view of the sea to watch the ships go by. Near a fabulous unspoilt Grebe beach. Easy to drive into Falmouth!

Great campsite

Small Tent - Non Electric Grass PitchesMay 2024

Fantastic stay at the farm. Facilities were maintained well, lovely horses too! Everyone was spread out and it was nice to not be packed in like sardines. Signposted well on the roads, great communication from hosts. Shop wasn't open during our stay but we had read ahead and knew this was seasonal so wasn't expecting it - however we did spy a ping pong table in there which would be great fun during summer. Water was hot in the toilet block. I've seen reviews saying otherwise but I would argue this is basic common sense - if you use the shower facilities when everyone else is then it's less likely to be as hot! I'd recommend anyone worried about this to just get up a bit earlier and shower whilst it's quiet. Ideal location, loved hearing the cows and even met a very friendly ginger cat who stuck by our tent for a while and enjoyed scratches behind the ears. We will be back!

Quiet with stunning views

Lovely quiet site. Only downside was that the showers were lukewarm. Wasn't bothered at all by owners, so left to get set up. Will be back again in the summer :)

VW-Type Campervan - Non Electric Grass PitchesSep 2023

Great site, great value for £. Extremely quiet and peaceful, everything clean and working. Minor comment - shower could do with a seat or a shelf to put toiletries and shoes on, otherwise they'll be in spray (a really really petty comment). Will 100% definitely use this campsite again, great location.

Perfect!

It was excellent and we had the place to ourselves! Only disturbance was unpleasant plastics burning just over the hedge, but the cows were a pleasure!
