Liked: Lovely quiet site. Very clean shower/toilet block. The site has lots of nearby walks and it's own dog walking field and a dog shower which we had to use for our muddy dog.

Upper Meadow fully-serviced concrete slab caravan site (pet friendly)
Liked: Lovely site, facilities a bit dated but spotless. Fab scenery and walks on mining trails. Can access Chacewater village via these routes if mobility good. Dog walk on site for toileting. Bus stop at top of road but didn't use it. Chacewater chippy and Cornish pasties at Chacewater traditional bakery lush. Peaceful site
Disliked: Not safe to walk to village on main road, no pavements. Did not like being accused of letting dogs foul in adjacent field. Especially when I had to pick up someone else's dog's mess in the designated dog walking area.
Recommend to friends Visit again
From the manager: We are sorry you had a few issues. We do request dogs are kept on leads on the pitches for their own safety as there are moving cars and caravans/motorhomes, also it is hard to see where your dog has used the toilet if they are running around, which is not nice for other holidaymakers or the person mowing the grass. Dogs may be off the lead over the dog walking field but again it is hard to monitor if a dog has run off to use the facilities!. We ask all owners to pick up after their dogs and check the field ourselves twice a day at least. There is a much safer way to walk to the village which avoids the main road and the bakery is indeed Lush!
Excellent site for a base to explore west Cornwall.

Upper Meadow fully-serviced concrete slab caravan site (pet friendly)
Liked: Friendly welcome to this adults-only site. Very peaceful. Facilities are good. Although the toilets & shower block are ‘dated’ they are impressively clean. Lots of hot water. All the owners/ staff we met were very friendly. There is a huge meadow for dog walks which we loved. Our pitch was serviced & the grounds are well managed.
Disliked: Nothing at all.

Upper Meadow fully-serviced concrete slab caravan site (pet friendly)
Liked: Always lovely when we stay here! Reasonably gravelled level spacious pitches with grass next to it. The site is kept lovely and clean with the grass mowed everyday along with all the bins being emptied. Friendly staff. The showers and toilets are very clean and cleaned daily. Close to village shops. Large dog walking field. Onsite shop, although only ever brought gas cylinders from there. Elson point is large, clean and easy to use. The site is centrally placed for accessing all points of Cornwall
Disliked: Would like additional dog bag bins onsite, as the only one is in the dog walking field. Not sure if you are allowed to put the poo bags in the normal bins onsite I have never asked to be fair, if so there are plenty of them. WiFi this time was a bit hit or miss this though, not sure if that was the weather tho, as it was horrendous!

Upper Meadow Hay powered concrete slab caravan site (pet friendly)
Liked: We were travelling with a dog, so were assigned a pitch in the "upper field". It was nearer to the dog walking field and shower block, so it was very convenient. The dog walking field was amazing - plenty of space and variation. There were even spades to assist in keeping the area clean. Staff were very helpful and friendly. Would stay again if in the area.
Disliked: Nothing - apart from a bit of difficulty finding the site, so perhaps more signs. But the next day we got back there very easily, so perhaps it was just us.

Liked: It was a very clean and level site, with all facilities close and easy to use. The staff were very friendly and helpful . There was fast food vendors on a few of the evenings which was great. The site is close to all the places we were interested in visiting, and the view from the site was nice. Very peaceful and I will definitely stay again.

Lower Meadow powered concrete slab caravan site (no pets)
Liked: We liked everything about this site, it was clean, tidy and well run. The toilets were cleaned regularly and were spotless at all times. Bins were emptied every day so no rubbish lying about. Julie and Rob were very helpful and friendly, with advice about buses etc if needed. The site is well placed in the middle of Cornwall with normally good access o all the tourist spots, I say normally because at the time of our two week stay the A30 road is being turned into the Truro bypass and chaos rules. All in all an excellent site well done to everyone.

Upper Meadow fully-serviced concrete slab caravan site (pet friendly)
Liked: Large level pitch, fully serviced grass and gravel. Well maintained and clean site, bins emptied every day! Dog walking field next to the site accessed via sites gate. Showers and toilets immaculately cleaned and maintained. Washing machine and a utilities room with a small charge to use for a spinner if you prefer to hand wash a few things. Central location and bus stop at the edge of the site to Central Truro! Best tasting bakery for cornish pasties in Chacewater itself, 15-20 minute walk into the village or 5 minute drive
Disliked: There is a haulage company just located behind this beautiful quite campsite and unfortunately some nights they were working in there until 10pm. Not the campsites fault or anything they can do about it but because it's so quiet it did keep us awake
Recommend to friends Visit again
From the manager: Hi we are pleased you enjoyed your stay and thankyou for your review! The noise you experienced is not from a haulage company, Truro tractors are a distributor of farm machinery, so do not run machinery. The noise is from a gentleman who has been digging footings for his new house and is a temporary issue although we will have a word to see if he can limit the hours. We hope to see you again next year!
