Wonderful site

Poole Farm
We stayed at Poole Farm for 2 nights this week. It is the best CL we have ever stayed at, with the warmest welcome and immaculate facilities. The site is very peaceful and it is the perfect place to relax. We bought some of Lou's homemade jam, it is absolutely delicious, as was the cream tea we had in the motorhome. We didn't have any of the home cooked meals this time, but we certainly will when we visit again.

Our second visit, but it won’t be our last.

Poole Farm
A lovely, adults only site, a warm welcome and generous, fully serviced, hardstanding pitches. It has a nice, secure dog field, which for us is a must. Clean and comfortable shower and wc, and a doggy wash facility. Make sure to sample Louise’s meals, they are delicious.

Our stay at the wonderful Poole Farm in Launceston.

Poole Farm
There are not enough words to describe how beautiful this CL Site is. Such a warm and friendly welcome from the start when we arrived and a lovely cuppa. Lou and Gregg along with their son Harvey have thought of absolutely everything. So much love, care and a lot of hard work. No wonder it has been voted CL of the year. It is definitely a must to stay at. They also have a holiday cottage plus they run a B&B. We will be sad to leave but we have already booked for next year. Thankyou once again Lou and Gregg for making our stay such a wonderful part of out time away.

Perfection

Poole Farm
We stayed here for 9 nights and it was lovely and peaceful where you hear the sound of woodpeckers & owls constantly. Louise & Greg have thought of everything to make your stay perfect. Everything is kept immaculate. Lovely bathroom & dishwashing facilities. The meal we had delivered to the caravan was perfect after a busy day out all served with fresh vegetables & salad. The frozen meals were all lovely that were for sale in the kitchen area along with jams, chutneys and various other homemade goods. We did get lost on the way there but Louise was wonderful and stayed on the phone the whole way so we didn’t get lost again. We did worry about getting in and out the entrance but we never did meet anyone coming in the opposite direction. Thank you for our wonderful stay.
