What customers say

This is a friendly, family-run campsite with highly praised staff and a welcoming atmosphere. Visitors enjoyed the clean facilities, good food in the clubhouse, and entertainment. The children's covered play area was a particular hit. Some guests noted the facilities could benefit from modernising and that pitches were sometimes close to the noisy clubhouse. The site is well-located for exploring the surrounding area.

Louise D.

Non-electric grass tent pitch

Liked Nice place friendly people

Disliked I had food in the clubhouse which has given me food poisoning so the rest of my holiday isn’t going well at all

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Louise. Thank you for your comments about the site and the people.
We are sorry that your holiday is not going to plan.
We do however dispute that you got food poisoning from eating here. You were only here for one night, arriving late as I recall. On the evening in question, we served over 30 covers — including tables of up to 12 people — and did not receive a single complaint from any other guest. In fact, many of those diners returned the very next day for more food.

We take great pride in the quality, freshness, and preparation of our dishes, and have consistently received compliments from our customers. While we are sorry to hear that you have been unwell, there is no indication from any other guest’s that evening, that there was any issues with the food served.

If you would like to discuss this further, please contact us directly with more details so we can look into your concerns fully

Liked The location

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: We are sorry that the Entertainment coloured your impression of our site. We do have live entertainment on Saturday and, during the Summer a disco on Friday, as advertised.

We do stop the music at 11pm in the Summer and close the Clubhouse by 11:30pm. After 10:30pm, as long as it is not too hot, we close the doors and windows to limit the outside noise.

We are not sure which pitch you were on, but if you had come to us, we would of moved you to a hardstand further away from the Bar

Friendly staff lovely site.

Local attractions

The only issue with staying close to the Devon/Cornwall border is the possibility of being overwhelmed by options for days out… so perhaps it’s sensible to start somewhat local with a visit to Launceston Castle (10 minutes’ drive) or a day of meeting cute creatures at the Tamar Otter & Wildlife Centre (15 minutes)? Alternatively, of course, you could set forth straight away for the seaside – there’s so much fab coastline around here but you’ll likely find some of the highlights to be the beaches and surf schools of Bude (25 minutes) and Widemouth Bay (half an hour). If you’re more into strolling along cobbled lanes, the fishing villages of Boscastle (the one with the witches museum) and Port Isaac (the one where they filmed Doc Martin) are both within a 45-minute drive. Other coastal spots to check out include Tintagel Castle (40 minutes), a place of much Arthurian legend, and the maritime city of Plymouth (55 minutes), home to the UK’s largest aquarium and a stonking gin distillery.
