Such a lovely and clean space. Perfect for families. Shower and toilet facilities clean! Pizza made there was amazing and super yummy! Great location to beach! Judith is so lovely and kind and takes time out to talk to everyone! If you’re looking for a camping space I would highly recommend this one!

Excellent site, highly recommended

Great location and site. All the basics you need - clean facilities and the honesty box for tip tops was a huge hit with my six year old. Would definitely return if we head to Padstow.

The best campsite we have visited

Really nice campsite, lovely views and only a 5 minute drive from Padstow Harbour. Basic but clean facilities, great little shop and even a little pop up coffee/breakfast shack in the morning and a hot food shack in the evening. The owner Judith is wonderful, so so friendly, helpful and all round lovely.

We loved our stay!

We stopped one night at the Padstow View and we couldn't recommend this place enough! You pitch where you want, with a warm welcome! Toilet facilities and showers. A little shop with your essential needs. Will be back again!

Lovely, peaceful site

We had a great stay at Padstow View, we were warmly welcomed and given a tour of the site and its facilities, which were very well thought out. We arrived late in the day and had some food onsite from their food trailer which was yummy and admired the view over Rock. The showers were icy cold when we went in, but was at busier times. Everything was so clean and the on-site shop was really helpful too. Lovely location and a great stop if doing a few nights here and there. The highlight of our trip was watching the incredible sunrise from our bed. Thank you so much!

Site's response

Thank you for your 5 star review, Kate. We are so pleased you enjoyed your stay. Sorry to hear you had a cold shower, it must have been when we were changing the gas. The showers, no matter how busy we are, are always hot at all times. Many thanks.

Excellent site

We only had a short stay at the site but I would definitely go again. The site is in beautiful countryside and there is so much room for you to choose your pitch. The facilities are second to none. The toilets are always clean and there is a hand dryer. The showers are self-contained cubicles and again are always clean and hot. There is a little shop, freezer for freezer blocks and lockers to charge your phone. You could hire a fire pit but we didn't bother as we were only there for a short time and I'm not good at lighting fires! Possibly the best site I've ever used. Thank you Judith for a wonderful stay.

Fantastic stay! We arrived in storm Betty and even then we had a great welcome by the lovely host 😊 The winds were insane which she couldn't help, but she still apologised and checked in on us. My laptop required charging and she offered to charge it for me so that I didn't have to leave it alone at the on-site charging area. The site even had Wi-Fi available! The facilities were fantastic and the showers/toilet block was very clean with hot water. Good range of items to purchase from the on-site shop and the food from the pizza truck was delicious! Would definitely come again and the location was great

Fabulous

Such a lovely pop up site. Site owner was really welcoming and friendly. Although we encountered moody Storm Betty she didn't spoil our stay! Grass pitch became slightly muddy but it drains well and drys out fairly quick. Loos lovely and clean, showers too and nice and warm. Lovely little shop for essentials and more. Pizzas in evening and morning breakie on site - nice touch x

Amazing little spot run by super friendly people

Great little campsite ideally placed between Padstow and Wadebridge and our favourite beaches only 5 minutes away by car. Run by lovely people who always stopped to say hi when walking past and always around to answer any questions you had. 10/10 experience!

Lovely off grid camping

For a rural camping field this site was amazing. Run by a lovely welcoming family who couldn't do enough for you. Toilet and shower facilities were fantastic and beautifully clean. Food in the evening from a trailer was great and fantastic coffee and bacon rolls in the mornings. Couldn't have asked for more, we will be back xxx

Great place to stay for beaches

Medium Tent - Non Electric Grass Tent PitchesAug 2023

Really friendly, welcoming and a helpful owner who is there up to 10pm every night to help with anything. Really clean toilets which were fully stocked with toilet roll and soap. There was plenty of room to pitch. Very close to Padstow, with a regular bus running from the campsite into Padstow. Charging station is amazing, £1 for 2 hours charge to charge your appliances in a locked box. Showers were nice and hot but not very powerful. Little shop which was very handy selling all the essentials. Reasonably priced, and even sells fire pits and giant marshmallows! Also, there are food vans on site so between 8am and 10am, so you can get coffee, tea, bacon sandwiches etc. Between 6pm and 9pm, you can get pizza, burgers chips etc. Not sure if this is on every night, as we stayed on a Thursday and Friday night. There are plug sockets you can use for drying/straightening your hair, but bear in mind that these are located in the little shop! Overall, our stay was very pleasant and we would recommend staying here. They have a quiet after 10pm policy.

Excellent

What stood out to me most about this campsite was the owner and how excellent her service was. She was super friendly and made sure we had everything we needed. She went above and beyond and really had a passion and love for everyone who was staying there. The facilities were fantastic! The toilets were constantly clean and replenished and the showers were powerful and hot! In the evening they opened a food stand, with great food and drinks! Even though the weather was severe storms when we stayed, the owner did everything she could to supply us with extra equipment to keep us warm from a small shop there on the campsite. I would 100% recommend this campsite to everyone!

Amazing campsite!

Absolutely loved our visit to Padstow View. We received a warm welcome and given lots of information which was super helpful. The field is easy to find and a great location for amenities nearby. We particularly enjoyed having food and drink trucks on site serving dinner and breakfast. The honesty shop was well stocked and there were plenty of washing facilities. Will definitely visit again!

What a fantastic spot, lovely view over the Padstow bay. Good location for access to all beaches and walks in the area. The owner was so helpful, nothing was too much trouble and they really made us welcome in a very busy time.

Really amazing advice from the lovely lady and her daughter who run the site, very friendly, helpful and keen to answer any questions and share local knowledge. Facilities were great, with plenty of good toilets and showers. There's also a little shop with cold drinks, ice creams, and sausage and bacon to cook in the morning! A coffee cart is open until about 10am in the morning serving lovely coffee and baked goods at a reasonable price. Very close driving distance to Padstow and easy access to Padstow on the bus (bus stop about 2 minutes away from the campsite), although the last bus back to the campsite is quite early on a Sunday. Really close to a lovely walking path into Padstow. The area itself is beautiful with lots of lovely beaches, restaurants and the town has some nice shops and lovely character. The campsite is well maintained and we had no trouble in finding a great pitch not too close to other campers, even during the hottest weekend in August! Already looking to plan our next visit to Padstow view, it really was the perfect campsite for us! Would highly recommend.

Lovely!

Lovely little pop up campsite close to Padstow harbour (5min drive) and many beautiful beaches close by (Constantine bay was our favourite) Very clean site with clean showers toilet and washing up facilities the owner Judith was often seen cleaning and refreshing these throughout the day and night. There is also a freezer for ice packs and you can buy ice lollies cold drinks and milk using the honesty box. The site was also nice and peaceful with everyone seeming to stick to the quiet after 10pm rule. The morning coffee van is a very nice touch! Judith the site owner was lovely, warm and so welcoming she went above and beyond for us dashing home to get some boiling water for our evening cuppa (who forgot the stove is an ongoing argument!?!?) thank you Judith we hope to see you next year! With our stove!!!

Great site!

We originally booked for 3 nights but due to great weather stayed for 6. Judith was such a great host from start to finish. Helpful, friendly and kind. The facilities are really good, 4 female toilets with mirrors. And 8 showers, with hot water! 4 sink stations for washing up too, with hot water. The honesty shop had milk bread butter and some goodies, including lollies and chocolate. A tall freezer allows you to freeze your ice packs and also pay to borrow some of the sites! You can charge your phone's for £1. The field is mostly flat with a slight slope to the end, with views to Padstow and the hills. We stayed with our 5 year old and 2 year old and we all had a fun time, plenty of space around tents (you pitch where you like). We visited Harlyn, Trevone, Constantine Bay and Trevose for sun set. We will certainly return now we have the camping bug. Thanks again for your fabulous campsite Judith and working around the clock to keep us as happy campers :)

Great facilities and value for money

Only stayed for one night at the end of a weekend staying elsewhere. Good value for money, nice view, near to Padstow, very clean toilets and showers, drinks and snacks available with honestly box, phone charging boxes. Good communication - replied to text query very quickly. Fresh coffee in the morning! Although it was on a busy road in a very windy spot with very rough ground.

We will return again

Picturesque views, sat atop a hill with an amazing view of the bay. Padstow was the perfect central location for everything we needed. The campsite had great facilities, clean and private toilets, spacious and comforting showers. Much needed coffee shop and electric facilities. everyone there knew the craic too, chilled vibes and friendly "hellos" and "good mornings". Couldn't recommend it more.
