A great little site

This site has great facilities: the shower and toilets were in perfect condition and spotlessly clean, the wifi connection was top class, better than at home, and free! The owner, Dave, was welcoming and friendly. There was a bit of traffic noise but, as other reviews say, you soon get used to it so it wasn't really ever a bother. As a motorhomer without alternative transport, I would have liked a good bus service nearby but taking the vehicle out every day to visit different places wasn't too big a problem.

Ideal location for touring

Having accepted the location of this site adjacent to the A30 we have just had an exceptional 4 nights there. There is some Road noise but after a day or so you really dont realise. The owner Dave was very friendly, accommodating and gave us a very warm welcome. The field was great for the dog and also just up the Road are dog paddocks called Brynn Hill if you require something more secure. We travelled to the South Coast and spent a day at the Lost Gardens of Heligan which was about 20 minutes away. The gardens are mindblowing and well worth a visit. We also visited Da Bara artisan bakery who make the most amazing bread. They are situated in Indian Queens which is about 10 minutes away. The North Coast beach of Mawgan Porth which is dog friendly is just over 15 minutes away is also very accessible which makes this location so ideal.

Excellent site

As expected there is some road noise. Being located so close to the a30 this is a given, but it is in no way obtrusive. The views and excellent facilities more than make up for it. Perfect location for exploring the local area as well. The pitches are slightly sloping, but firm hard standing all the way from the road so no worries whatever the weather. Dave was very welcoming and took the time to tell us what was around us and where was best to visit. Overall a site I would visit again without hesitation. Spot on.

Bring Wellies and Earplugs

Starting with the positives the location is good for the Eden Project and the Lost Gardens of Heligan and indeed for touring the rest of the county. The owner met us on arrival and was friendly enough but no maps or information on local amenities. Unfortunately you couldn’t walk anywhere from the site because there were no kerbs and the surrounding roads were dangerous. The major draw for us was the 4 acre dog area but unfortunately the grass was knee high and soaking wet in September so even the dog didn’t fancy it. The 200yd walk to the toilet/shower block was also wet and muddy and a bit of paving wouldn’t go amiss there. The 2 toilets and 1 shower were basic but adequate for 5 pitches. The hot tub was out of action fortunately 🙂 some traffic noise is an understatement being next to two busy roads and the noise was 24/7. Personally it was not our cup of tea and really disappointing that the dog couldn’t enjoy it, but I would just say it’s cheap and cheerful, very laid back, bring wellies and ear plugs.

Really good, will come again

Easy to access and a great welcome from Dave: unusally, the directions are spot-on. 'Facilities' are excellent: just that the weather (mid-October 2019) made the walk there pretty muddy so a hard path would have helped. The pub in Roche is excellent and a meal is recommended.

Good location, no hidden extras

Excellent location for travelling around Cornwall - only a short drive from the Eden Project and Wheal Martyn. Big field to exercise the dogs, and we didn't have to pay for the shower or the use of WiFi (this was the owners not Caravan Club, so you could access everything for free!). There is some constant road noise, but the owners helpfulness and extra facilities more than make up for it. A very open site with plenty of room.

the perfect host

we used this site for two nights to visit the Eden Project. The location was perfect for this, just 7 mins drive away. David the host was fantastic, so helpful and friendly. He provided us with cable protectors so that we could pitch where we wanted and still protect our power cable. We also heard he had helped another camper the night before when storms were trying to blow away their awning. The toilets and showers are basic but are kept clean and the shower hot and good. The traffic can be heard as close to the main road, but the location and accessibility make up for it.

Thanks Dave!

My husband and I stayed here for 4 nights and found it to be extremely convenient for many places in Cornwall. We visited Mevagissey and Fowey with ease. The site was great value and our dog had a fantastic time as he could run free! Dave was a very friendly and helpful host and the shower and toilet block were spotless. Would definitely stay there again.

Enjoyable

We stayed here as convenient for my parents and found the site very useful. There is road noise but this is clearly stated on website but we found no bother with this as all. Dave was very friendly and came to meet us straight away explaining about shower etc and that we could park up anywhere we liked. Thanks Dave
