As others have said this is a simple field site with glorious views across the Camel river to Padstow. At £8.50 it is clearly going to be basic but that suits me. Tesco, Aldi and Home Bargains are just a few minutes away. The nearby pub is excellent for both food and drink.
The one thing I wish to draw members attention to is actual access into the site. The entrance is narrow and overgrown. If you have an 8ft wide unit unless damage doesn’t concern you I wouldn’t even attempt to get in. In my opinion the minimum you will get away with is scratches. We were there in May and i cut back some of the bigger bits of foliage encroaching the gate but it needs a serious clearout. Its not so much what you can see but what you can’t. Granite is popular in those parts!
I have left a review on Google maps with a photo so you can judge for yourself
But assuming you get in safely then it is a superb place to stay.
Just returned from a fabulous stay, the views from the site are spectacular and we were welcomed by Paul the owner who is very friendly and checks all is ok regularly. The location of the site is great as only 15/20 mins drive to Padstow and fabulous beaches and 1 min walk to the local friendly pub which serves delicious food and local beer, we will definitely be returning.
We stayed here the first 2weeks of July and although the weather was not good our views were ever changing. The site is very easy to access and has water and Elsan. Waste water goes straight into the hedge. Paul, the owner came round most evenings just to make sure we were happy. He also recommended places to visit. The Quarryman pub was lovely and the food was great. We will definitely be back!!
I don't think words can do justice to the view from this CL. To say they are absolutely stunning is selling it short.
Easy access and very spacious. Yes the ground is a bit uneven but just remember it's a field, not a bowling green.
Leveling ramps are a pretty good idea.
The owner has been around each evening checking that all is well.
Quarryman pub up the road has a good cellar and deliscous meals.
We will most definitely be back!
We didn’t want to leave after our 12 night stay! The view from the site is so, so lovely. It was tough leaving it behind.
Very peaceful with plenty of space for the kids to let off steam, we’ll away from the other units if need be.
Friendly owner who warned us that sometimes no water comes out of the tap. This happened a couple of times during our stay but wasn’t a problem. Only disappears for a few moments before it’s back on again.
We were able to visit so many places in Cornwall from this site. And although the site was peaceful and you felt you were in the middle of nowhere, a 2 minute car drive and you were at Tesco/Aldi/petrol station.
One on our list to visit again.
We have only been caravanning for a year and this was our first off-grid experience. We really enjoyed staying at this site and did not find the lack of EHU an issue at all. The site has amazing views of Padstow, the Camel Estuary and views of the sea in several directions, plus beautiful sunsets. The site was extremely peaceful with only natural noise for the majority of the time given the site is situated on a no-through road that only leads to a couple of farms. The owner Paul was very friendly and came round every night to check everything was ok. Easy access to the Elsan and fresh water point in the corner of the field,and bin / recycling facilities near the entrance gate. Easy access from the A39, with the last half mile on a quiet lane with several passing places. Local pub only 100m away. A bus stop is only 0.5 mile walk away that allows you to get into Wadebridge, Padstow, Bodmin, Newquay and the surrounding coastal sites with ease. There are plenty of beautiful beaches and coastal walks to see in the surrounding area. We used this site as a base to walk a large section (Padstow to Perranporth) of the SWCP. We would happily return to this site again due to the peace and tranquillity, space and lovely views.
Been here a number of times, amazing views and great location for the camel trail, Polzeath, shops and pub close by. Paul is a great host and always checks in to make sure everyone is happy, love it here one of our favourite CL’s.
We stayed here for 4 nights and the owner, Paul, has been a great host, assisting with advice on ideal places to visit. This is a perfect location for cycling into Padstow on The Camel Trail. Whilst here we cycled to Padstow, Rock, Port Isaac and Bodmin. The site offers great views over the Camel Estuary and has well-maintained fresh water and elsan/grey waste disposal points.
At £8 per night Chapel Farm offers excellent value for money.
