Orchard Springs Campsite

Liked: We had an amazing stay at the Shepperd's Hut, absolutely loved the experience and it had everything you need. We could have turned up with an empty car and would have been very comfortable. Just bring your own towels.
The hut comes with a fully lined bed, a kitchen counter with an electric hob, a small dining table, all the cutlery, a kettle, a coffee press, even a decent wi-fi. Outside you have a portable firepit and a small bbq (we used it to hold our disposable bbq above ground). You are 10m away from the toilets which is very handy for late at night.
This camp has very good showers and the water is hot 24h which was very convenient for us as we tend to come back to camp very late after a whole day exploring Cornwall. The hosts also offer fresh bakery in the mornings that you can pre-order, we tried the croissants, the sausage rolls and the steak pasty. All delicious and so convenient if you can't be bothered to do any cooking in the mornings.
The campsite is beautifully maintained and just the right size for everything to feel very close no matter where on the camp you stay. We will definitely come back again.

Disliked: Nothing, 10/10 stay

Liked: Lovely little site in a quiet area with everything we needed for a successful camping trip

Disliked: Toilet/shower rooms could have been cleaned a little better, i.e, lots of dust & cobwebs

Liked: Lovely little site in good location with friendly hosts.
Facilities are clean, loved that the toilets/showers are like en suite rooms rather than cubicles and shower blocks. There are only a few though so did have to queue at times.
Level, roomy pitches.
Nice option to order morning pastries. Pizza night was good.
Mostly quiet.
Would recommend and would stay again.

Disliked: Several young boys constantly kicking footballs at and into our tent and near misses kicking towards people when walking past.
More an issue of parenting than the site but maybe some rules about ball games would be beneficial.

Liked: Super toilet/shower block/washing up facilities - clean & well provisioned.
A good sheltered/wind protected site.
Option to buy a small selection of baked-to-order pastries/bread 🥖 🥐 in the morning for breakfast.
Thursday cooked-on-site Pizza-oven Night.
Very well-maintained.
Site was probably 70% occupied whilst we were there so had no issues with availability of toilets/showers.

Disliked: Nothing. One of the best sites in my 10+ year camping experience.

Liked: The campsite and owners were excellent! We had only booked to stay for 2 days and were gutted we only got to stay there for such a short amount of time.

It’s a lovely, small campsite which is perfect for us as we hate the chaos of the traditional big campsites that cater for masses.

On arrival we were greeted by one of the lovely owners and she allowed us to choose the pitch we wanted -
a lovely pitch, right next to some woodland area with a stream at the bottom.

The facilities were amazing- wonderfully clean showers and toilets, clean kitchen with fridge/freezer, free Wi-Fi and “to order” pastries in the morning!

Would highly recommend to anyone looking for a nice clean, calm campsite ☺️

Disliked: Literally nothing to dislike!

Liked: Lovely little accessible campsite on outskirts of Bodmin. Nice clean shower, toilet and wash up facilities, sufficient for size of site. Local supermarkets close enough for shopping. Great homemade pizzas on Thursday evenings (Aug).

Disliked: Pitches were sufficient, could have been slightly bigger for tent and car......

Recommend to friends Visit again

Liked: Fabulous site with clean working amenities. The pizza on the Thursday night was one of the best meals we had all week.
Great location for getting round central Cornwall and would definitely recommend a visit to Bodmin Jail whilst you are there.
