Traveller’s Rest

Ik was blij met: The location, beautifully kept, and amazingly firm grass field during a wet spell! But especially the kind considerate helpful owner. Thank you.

Ik was niet zo blij met: Some difficult access to the site, though the main access was closed because of weather conditions.

Ik was blij met: Views.

Ik was niet zo blij met: Wasn’t very organised, the pitches were very close together, the photos make it look bigger than it was! Only one shower, which could have been cleaner.

Van de manager: Thanks for your review. I am considering doing marked out pitches for the future.

Ik was blij met: Great little site tucked away in a little hamlet 5 minutes from the A30. Andy the owner was very welcoming and came round everyday to make sure everyone was OK. Facilities are basic but exactly what you want from a quiet getaway. This is an old fashioned site and I don't mean that in a bad way. There are no kids clubs or games room. Kids are left to their own imagination and free to roam the countryside playing Frisbee or hide n seek away from the destraction of modern life. That said the site does have very good free wifi. Which is usually chargeable at most big sites. The site is out in the sticks but the town of Launceston is about 10 miles away where you will find everything you need. Boscastle, Tintagel, wadebridge are all within 30min drive and padstow and Bude are just a little further. There are 2 local pubs within a 15-20 min walk should you want a beer after tea. Also the sky around this area is very dark and on a clear night the stars were amazing. Well worth taking an astronomy guide with you.

Ik was blij met: The peace being next to cows & sheep friendly farmer , back to basic camping but had a shower & toilet in farmers house.

Ik was niet zo blij met: Porter toilets

Van de manager: Sorry, the portable toilets were closed. The toilets were the wood clad concrete building and the one at the rear of the main property. Sorry if I did not explain on arrival. Andy

Ik was blij met: Flat pitches with lots of individual space

Ik was niet zo blij met: Facilities really filthy, only one shower between everyone, noisy campers until way after midnight and as it’s basically a campsite in someone’s back garden in needs a bit of respect for each other! This is the strangest campsite we have ever stayed at! You also had to pay a pound every time you shower which I’m not sure was mentioned anywhere!

Van de manager: Sorry that some campers were noisy. Not sure about the back garden, it's part of a 3 acre field. Also sorry in the present economic climate with increases in electricity costs that you were unhappy about the £1 for a ten min shower. I have kept the price at that price despite increases in electricity charges Thanks for your review, I do my best to address all constructive comments.

Ik was blij met: We had to move campsite in a hurry and we got to Traveller's Rest early in the morning and the owner was very friendly, helpful and welcoming and allowed us to pitch our tent. The family loved the field and could run around in safety, the sheep and cows next door was a bonus! Location was good for both North and South coasts. The £1 for the shower goes a long way and it was very clean while we were there.

Ik was niet zo blij met: Like other reviews, there is only one sink for washing up with only cold water in the open air and so it usually was full of leaves and slugs. It does need a shelter as a minimum and ideally hot water as on most sites. There is only one shower which could have been a problem if the site had been busy and the other toilets were not cleaned, so we didn't want our young children using them.
