Non-electric grass pitch

Liked: Facilities are excellent, indoor area to wash dishes, tumble dryer, phone charge point. The showers are lovely and warm, very clean. The location was great, right next to beach with sea view! And also free WiFi on site was a bonus!

Disliked: It was a particularly wet week and the field was very muddy, we struggled to find somewhere to park the van where we wouldn't get stuck in the mud, no hard ground.

Liked: Location

Disliked: Nowhere to park campervan as the field was too wet. Lady was rude and would not give us a refund. We were told to get stuck and the farmer would pull us out in the morning. We left and parked elsewhere.

Local attractions

This is such a lovely part of Cornwall, on the south coast with the pristine beaches of Land’s End and the Lizard Peninsula, but also close to the big family attractions: the theme park Flambards and the National Seal Sanctuary are both within 10 to 15 minutes’ drive. Praa Sands West is the closest of the two Praa Sands beaches to Higher Pentreath – within a third of a mile – but the other, Praa Sands East, is still well under a mile’s walk away and very doable even if you’re carrying your surfboard. Nearby Prussia Cove and Kenneggy Sands are quieter coves, Kennack Sands has a nature reserve to its east, and a must is Marazion, sheltered by the National Trust-managed island of St Michael's Mount 10 minutes’ drive from Higher Pentreath and looking over stupendously good-looking Mounts Bay. Take a boat from here to the island or go around the harbour and village on a guided tour (held on Tuesdays and Fridays). Once off the beach, the towns and villages of Cornwall are close to hand: the nearest to Higher Pentreath Farm Camp Site is the ancient market town of Penzance (about 15 minutes' drive), home of the Penzance pirates in Gilbert and Sullivan’s opera (try and sing their shanties after a scrumpy).
