Electric grass pitch
Liked Absolutely everything, the site is very clean and has a family feel. It’s not over packed and is extremely peaceful. We stayed here for 8 nights and I would absolutely recommend to anyone. There is a little bar which had a lovely vibe. A shop, fresh stone cooked pizzas. Everyone was very respectful and the site was not noisy at all. I would absolutely stay here again. Owners are very helpful and friendly. Beaches are beautiful just a short 5 min drive away. Perfect location for all tourist destinations. 20 mins to the train station to get to st ives on the train (the train takes 10 mins) Thank you for a beautiful stay! Nic and linds
Disliked Nothing!

Wild Field bell tent
Liked We had a great experience at Tremorvu campsite. We had a brilliant time at this beautifully kept, family-run site. The staff were incredibly friendly and always ready to cater to our every need, making us feel right at home.
The bell tent and kitchen were absolutely ideal for our stay. We truly appreciated the comfortable beds and the well-equipped kitchen facilities. To make our first night extra special, we were even gifted a bag of logs for the fire pit, which allowed us to toast marshmallows! The barbecue was also a fantastic addition, and we made great use of it during our stay.
One of the highlights for us was the bean-to-cup coffee and croissants at the on-site café. The freshly baked pizzas, available three nights a week, were an absolute treat as well. The location of the campsite was perfect for exploring the local area, with easy access to beautiful beaches where we enjoyed activities such as sea kayaking and surf lessons.
Overall, our experience at Tremorvu was nothing short of amazing, and we can't wait to return!

From the manager: We’re glad you enjoyed your stay here. Thank you!
Even though we had no hot tub; we still preferred the extra space.
Stargazy 2 bedroom camping pod
Liked Pod 1 is the bigger 2 bedroom pod & we preferred the extra space. We have stayed here before in the 1 bedroom pod’s & it felt too small for us (family of 4)
Disliked That we didn’t have a log-burning stove or hot tub like the one bedroom pod’s have now (they didn’t last year).
Recommend to friends Visit again
From the manager: Thank you for your booking and review, Stargazy 2 bed pod is just perfect for 4 people, we hope to add some outside features in the next year or two, we won’t rule out installing a hot tub or similar! However we’ve ruled out putting in a wood burning stove as it will take up valuable space.
Apologies for the WiFi, we know it was up and down for you, even though the pods have their own routers. The issue turned out to be interference from another signal (who knew?) slowing our network, but this has been rectified.
We hope you’ll come and visit us again soon!

Electric optional grass tent or motorhome pitch (solo)
Liked The site is well located to get anywhere in the west of Cornwall; a 2 minute drive back into the main A road.
Pitches are a good size and well spaced. You certainly didn't feel smashed in like so many sites.
Pizza was lovely and available thurs-sun, cooked fresh on sure in the wood fired oven.
There's a footpath, that works nicely as a shortcut if you want to walk down to Praa sands, just of the access track to the site. It took me about 40 minutes to wander down to the beach via lanes and bridleways.
Toilets and showers for the men are in a converted farm building; rustic but clean and the showers were nice and warm. The ladies were in the next building over.
I was thankful to use the solo traveller pitch rate, so may places hammer you if your travel alone.
Hosts were nice and friendly, dashed me the pitch and let me be, but we're happy to chat and help when needed
Disliked Road noise was noticeable when it's the only noise around, but certainly didn't affect my sleep or anything.

From the manager: We really appreciate the feedback and thanks so much for booking with us. The WiFi was checked and found to be affected by a signal crossing the site, slowing online traffic, its much better now, however we will be adding more boosters across the site to improve the experience for everyone.
