The site comprises a large field with 20 pitches around the perimeter, five of which are designated for CAMC members only and therefore form the CL section, even though they are not physically separated in any way. The CAMC pitches are the first pitches as you enter the site and are nearest to the service points and, being at the higher part of the field probably afford the best views. Some of the non-CL pitches appeared to be more spacious, so I'm not sure there is any benefit to booking a CL pitch especially as all five were occupied most of the time we were there whereas the non-CL pitches were not so busy. Each pitch has its own water point on the EHU bollard, so no need to drag the aquaroll to and fro.
The site is immaculately kept, the grass is beautifully trimmed, the service points and bin areas were nice and clean. It was also lovely and peaceful at the time we were there. There are fantastic views over the sea, Godrevy lighthouse, St Ives and of course St Agnes beacon. We were treated to some amazing sunsets and, on clear nights the stars were really clear. My limited knowledge of astronomy enabled me to spot The Plough and hence the Pole Star with ease. The downside of having such wonderful views is that the site is on a hill so there is no respite from the wind if it decides to blow a bit, whichever direction it's coming from.
The walk into St Agnes is a comfortable distance, although the road makes you feel a bit vulnerable, but once there, there is a good butcher shop (cash only would you believe?), a good bakery, farm shop, a couple of mini supermarkets, a deli, just about every shop you could need for regular provisions, as well as a couple of pubs/hotels.
Plenty of places to visit round about without clocking up too many miles, we particularly liked Godrevy and Perranporth. Truro is also worth a visit for a very comprehensive shopping centre.
All in all we really enjoyed our stay, loved the peace and tranquility and would certainly use the site again next time we visit the area.
