What customers say

This friendly, well-kept campsite boasts a prime location near Marazion and St Michael's Mount. Guests loved the clean facilities, especially the showers, and the convenient on-site shop. The heated indoor pool was a big hit. Staff were consistently praised for being friendly and helpful. Some minor notes mentioned pitch size and occasional traffic noise from the A30.

From the manager: Thank you for your review. Pitch 6 is tucked away with privacy hedges is designed for VW T4/5 camper vans or smaller trailer tents. It is a highly desired plot due to its county view and seclusion. Your high scores for cleanliness, customer service and value for money are appreciated. We hope that enjoyed the rest of your UK holiday.

Jeanette D.

Powered grass travel trailer campsite

Liked The pool ,

Disliked Was given a really rubbish Pitch 2 by the road and the entrance . no privacy no scenery . The dog barked at every single car that passed it was that close . The electric went off at about 10:30 till the early hours of the morning not even an apology.
Also they advertise WiFi, it's only when you get there you realise they want £10 for it

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: We are so glad that you would visit us again, recommend us to a friend and that you enjoyed our pool and our lovely clean facilities.
We are sorry that you thought that your pitch was rubbish. During August we are a sold-out site with only a hand full of 1night gaps available to book at last minute. Most of our pitches including pitch 2 have been booked out since last summer. Pitch 2 is regularly requested by return customers due to its large size. Booking in advance means that you would have been able to call us and discuss where on site you would like to stay. We would love for you to comeback and try another pitch away from the country lane.
The electric cut out at 10.30pm due to another guest’s electrics tripping the fuse. We are a quiet after 10pm site so everyone else was asleep. As we have not encountered this problem before, it was quite difficult to locate the source quickly without waking everyone up. Fortunately, we were able to get the electric back on without disturbing anyone else.
The Wifi is £10 for a week and £5 for 3nights. Unfortunately, Pitch Up does not give an option to display the prices.
We hope you enjoyed the rest of your travels in Cornwall.

Route directions

If travelling in a caravan or large motorhome, don't try to reach the site by going through the town of Marazion. Instead, go through the village of Crowlas, pass The Star Inn (on your right) and then take a left at the crossroads (signposted Rospeath). Travel for 1.5 miles along the winding country lane without turning off. Pass under the bypass bridge and then bear a sharp left around the corner. Start going up the hill to Marazion and the site is just up the road on the right-hand side.

Local attractions

There are so many top-notch beaches around west Cornwall (25 within easy reach of Wheal Rodney) that it can be hard to pick where to stretch out on the sand/rookpool/surf at first… Marazion is a bonzer beach startoff point from Wheal Rodney, as not only it is a piffling mile away, but it has two beaches: the main Town Beach and a much quieter and hidden one at Steps Beach (the latter is dog-friendly all year round). Overlooking Town Beach is the medieval castle on St Michael’s Mount, the rocky island halfway along Mount’s Bay and now managed by the National Trust. Both are within strolling distance of Wheal Rodney: sail out to the island from Mount’s Bay for a harbour tour and a gawp at the subtropical gardens, viewable when peering down from the castle battlements. Fishing villages, clandestine coves and golden sands are speckled along the Cornish coast from Wheal Rodney: take a day at each if you can (the boss will understand) for fishing in Mullion and Porthleven, surfing at Sennen Cove and Praa Sands, diving and shipwreck hunting at Falmouth’s Porthkerris Beach, or just having a gape at the celebrated scenery of the Lizard’s Kynance and Kennack Sands. When sand is dusted from toes, Marazion town centre is a gem for art galleries, antiques and jewellery: Penlee House at Penzance three miles away and Tate St Ives seven miles north are also a big draw for artistes. Both towns have several other art galleries, more beaches (of course) and the opportunity to sing very loud and tuneless sea shanties with pirates at Penzance. The St Ives Bay Line from Penzance to St Ives is one of the most scenic you’ll see anywhere in the country; for added viewsomeness, walk to Penzance from Marazion along the South West Coast Path, stopping very frequently to snap the scenery at Mount’s Bay, Mousehole and the Lizard. Thirteen miles from Wheal Rodney towards the southwest, have your photo taken at the famous signpost at Land’s End, where also cordially recommended is partaking of a Cornish cream tea at the Land’s End restaurant. And while you’re in the area, stick around into the evening for a performance at the open-air Minack Theatre, 11 miles from Wheal Rodney in the direction of Land’s End. Its season runs from May to September, but theatre fiends can take a guided tour any time of year, something that also comes cordially recommended…
