What customers say
This quiet, spacious site boasts lovely rural and distant sea views. Guests rave about the friendly owner, clean facilities with hot showers, and coastal access. While basic, it's well-kept. Some note occasional shower temp/cleanliness issues or lack of amenities, but most want to return.

Primitive grass tent or RV campsite
Liked We came here for 4 nights, the campsite is huge and clean, there are toilets and showers, there is also a place to wash the dishes. The owner is very nice, every now and then he drove up and checked if it was clean, for example, in the toilets, he took care of order. Very close to the ocean, I recommend

Fantastic stay, lovely facilities and great host.
Primitive grass tent or RV campsite
Liked All the facilities were really well kept and the host was around in the evening if we needed him. Really convenient to sort own bbq.
Disliked Only thing that would have been nice would have been the option to purchase logs for fire due to remote location for getting supplies like this.

Primitive grass tent or RV campsite
Liked Good location, shower and toilets fine. Relaxed atmosphere. Good dark sky when weather allows. Dry ground so not worried about getting vehicles stuck. Pub style tables / benches dotted about the site which were useful.
Disliked Other campers allowing dogs to roam freely. They pooed near our pitch so I had to clear it up as I did not want our dog getting the blame.

Peaceful, spacious, good value site with sea views.
Primitive grass tent or RV campsite
Liked Very laid back, quiet, spacious site with lovely distant sea views and lots to explore nearby. Loos, showers and washup area were basic but fine. Good value for Cornwall. Nice walks from the site, through woodland to the SW Coast Path. Pitch where you like. Friendly and helpful owner. Much of the site is sloping but some flat bits. Excellent Thai takeaway available from outside the farm down the road.
Disliked The shower water was warm but not as hot as ideal. (Oddly, washing up sinks had lovely, very hot water.) Otherwise all good. 🙂
