I craved a spontaneous camping trip to take my son (5) and dog on. I booked at gone 10pm Friday night and headed down for 12 noon Saturday. Location was perfect, out of town by close enough for even my 5yr old to walk back and forth from a few times. There were routes off the main road which were quiet and a better option for him to ride his bike, connecting to the camel trail towards the end. Probable around 10 -15 mins to town going the longer route. When we got back to the tent around 9pm, all was quiet, a few tents/vans had lights on but no noise. There is a Tesco just behind the campsite which was super handy for the forgotten toothpaste and of course some snacks. Toilets and shower blocks were clean and never busy, we didn't have to wait to use either. Showers had lovely hot water and were reliable at a constant temperature. Loads and loads of room for dogs and kids to play, we took tennis, ball throwers and some other games and had oodles of space to play. At the top of the field, the ground is pretty much flat and you can position yourself behind the hedge which acts as a good shelter. There was hardly any wind there, but once you walked halfway to town it was really blowing, so it's a great little spot. Very friendly owner, who was also knowledgeable about the area and very pleasant to speak to. The site provided everything we were after for a quick night away, we had a brilliant time and will definitely be coming back! Thank you 🙏🏻
Great position, great hosts, great site.

The site is ideally located within walking distance to Padstow harbour, Tesco is literally 1 minute away and the site is clean and the owners are very friendly. Only 2 minor points which would make it an easier stay were, there was only 1 mirror which was in the bathroom and the plug is outside the bathroom, and there is no hot water to wash your pots. The fix for this is that we had a collapsible washing up bowl that we filled up with hot water from the bathroom and used that.
Quiet, central, and an amazing view
