Liked: Location amazing for stargazing! Little bar open certain evenings, owners lovely, good size pitches. Good clean shower facilities (if being very picky could do with modernisation but always clean and wouldn't stop me from staying again.) Kids loves watching the cows and goats!

Liked: This campsite was absolutely amazing, the staff were lovely. The showers and toilets were clean and maintained throughout our stay. You could hire a fire pit at a really reasonable price and they had a bar with a pool table which was great for a nice cold drink on the evening, with wifi. They also offered Pizzas on selected evenings and it tasted delicious! There was a a little play park which kept the kids entertained and a place designed for washing up with running water which was great! We will definitely be returning!
Disliked: Said there was a communal fridge but it wasn’t too much of an issue, there was a freezer.

Liked: Everything. The facilities are great. The site is lovely and well kept. The owners are lovely and welcoming. Small bar on site opens 4 evenings a week and they now offer pizza s. Our kids are 8 and 12 and each time we have been they have made friends to play with. Boscastle only a 5 min drive. Bude 20 min drive. Beautiful beaches plenty of places to visit. Site has quiet time after 11pm till 7 I think.

Liked: What a wonderful campsite in a glorious location. The pitch sizes are generous and the site is small and well laid out. The owners were really friendly and the check in was easy and smooth. All facilities were in good working order and I have to say the cleanest I’ve experienced during a camping trip. I would definitely stay again when I’m in north Cornwall.
Disliked: Really hard to pick something but our pitch was located opposite the child’s play area. This wasn’t a problem for us but could be for others without family and wanting to relax at the site as it could get noisy.

Liked: Lovely clean site with sea views and the location is great for Boscastle and Bude amongst others. The facilities were good and clean ( although used all onboard facilities in the caravan ) and the hosts were very friendly. There was only two things that I felt could be better and that's the drinking water station needs to be re thought out as the area around the concrete step gets very muddy ( you are supposed to lift the barrel on to the step but not possible with our 50 litre one. ) and the other was the toilet waste disposal ( this was just a small shed with a normal ceramic toilet ) and this could be messy due to splash back. This I feel needs to be done like other campsites and have a proper disposal pit. These were minor things that I quickly adapted to, so overall a nice site and would recommend!
Disliked: None.

Liked: Great value for money, indoor washing up area, clean toilets, very warm and powerful showers, lovely view. We didn't try the pizza or bar but did visit the nearby farmshop for breakfast. The little play area kept our kids entertained and toilets being in the middle meant never too far to walk.
