Paulina T. Jun 2024

Unpowered grass tent or trailer tent site

Liked: Not far from coast. Local shop and bakery few minutes away. 3 fields, so much space. Peaceful and quiet. We have been woken up every day by hundrets of birds singing. Basic facilities but I don't care. Two showers 3 toilets. Shed with running cold water, kettle, microwave, small fridge and a freezer. You can also charge your phone or powerbank. £10 per night during half term for ma and my teenage boy. Hot water is the main thing for me. Kind farmer asked us if we need help with puting tent up as we struggled a bit with wind.

Disliked: I havent dislike anything as I coldnt care less about basic facilities if you have peaceful camp site few mileś from cost, beautiful beaches, sea pool, Padstow, pasty shops, Tesco Not far. I dislike the fact i dont live in Cornwal 😀

Unpowered grass caravan site

Liked: Excellent family site, run by lovely people. Has a toilet block with flushing toilets, showers and sinks, and washing up shed with electricity for charging your phone. We had a bit of engine trouble whilst staying here and the family could not have helped us more. We are so grateful and will definitely be back.

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Hi Kate, thanks for the great review! Hope you had a lovely stay and I'm glad we were able to help out with your vehicle isues!

The location is perfect to explore the nearby towns and beaches, Padstow…

Unpowered grass tent or trailer tent site

Liked: The location is perfect to explore the nearby towns and beaches, Padstow and some of the nicest Cornish beaches are only a very short drive. Large quiet campsite with plenty of space. Basic camping facilities (a few toilets and a couple of showers) that were kept clean. Everything we needed for a couple nights.

From the manager: Hi Rachel, thanks for the great review! We are glad you had a lovely stay and hope to have you stay with us again.

Local attractions

With so much choice in the way of beaches and coastal hikes, you’ll want to weigh up your options. To go to Constantine Bay (five minutes’ drive), a sandy destination with excellent swimming and rockpooling? Or Harlyn Bay (10 minutes), another sandy spot that has kayaking and paddleboard hire, coasteering activities and a surf school for those of you looking to catch your first wave? There’s Treyarnon Bay (10 minutes) to brush up on your surf skills some more and Mother Ivey's Bay (10 minutes) if you’re searching for a more sheltered sandy bay. As for other ways to take in the gorgeous coastline, head to Padstow (10 minutes) to board a boat from the fishing port or Trevose Headland (10 minutes) to go birdwatching along the National Trust's clifftops. The following both have camel in the name, but they’re very fine activities with a different spin: Camel Creek Adventure Park (10 minutes) is packed with family-friendly rides and animals that the kids can meet up close, while The Camel Trail (10 minutes) is an 18-mile old railway trail that will take you on a cycle from Padstow, past the estuary and into Wadebridge.
