Visited this summer and had very mixed weather. Far more rain than other years yet the wardens kept the site neat and tidy in very bad conditions.
This site is superbly sited near so many attractions and the excellent Hayle beaches just across the road. The shower blocks were kept very clean even though the site had become very muddy with the rain. The extra touches of fresh flowers in the shower blocks. The shop was well stocked great for everything even afternoon teas...cream teas and ice cream. Papers every moring saved the dangerous walk to the shop down the road.
The team of wardens were helpful, great local knowledge and went that extra mile if needed. They were always there to give that help and worked very hard to keep a very busy site in tip top condition. Keep up the good work and we hope to see you next year.
Thank you all for making it a great visit to Cornwall.
Nice site, friendly wardens and decent size pitches, but would be much better with hard-standings, as the land is very sandy and full of rabbit droppings which walk into the van. Very dark at night, so watch out for rabbit holes when walking to toilet blocks. Also, the exit to one of the toilet blocks has a step which slopes slightly down and I slipped off this (as I didn't see it in the dim light) and badly sprained my ankle. You can't drive into St Ives so have to take the train. Not an ideal place for motorhomes.
Comment from The Club:
Many thanks for leaving a review and we are very sorry to hear that you slipped and hurt your ankle. The Wardens at the site have been in touch with us and advise that the area around the toilet blocks is well illuminated all night. Re parking in St Ives - this is always a problem and most visitors prefer to take the train as it is less stressful.
During the peak times, it is highly recommended that you use the Park and Ride car park at Lelant Saltings railway station.
There is also a park and ride bus service operating from the Trenwith Car Park to Royal Square. More information regarding parking can be found on the Visit St Ives website under car parking.
Godrevy Park continues to attract both caravanners and motorcaravanners and is located in a beautiful part of Cornwall. Many thanks for taking the time to leave a review.

So we arrived just gone midday to a warm and friendly welcome from the wardens, who even remembered us from last year. Cracking start then. The site is great - peaceful, quiet, 15 minutes walk from the beach - get the kids to carry the stuff and save on the carpark charges. It's well placed to explore pretty much of Cornwall, especially the coves and fishing villages. The wifi and mobile were both a bit iffy but that could be where the van was pitched as it worked perfectly in the third cubicle along in the gents! I'd be there every morning at half nine for 30 minutes peace & quiet and a few turns of online Scrabble. The toilets were clean and tidy. The pitches are well maintained and didn't get muddy/boggy despite the rain. They're a good size as well and you're certainly not on top of each other. The wardens were - as ever - friendly, helpful and efficient. The only problem were the other caravanners. What a bunch of miserable, unfriendly people. Maybe I'd inadvertently upset every single person on the site but my hello's and good mornings were either completely ignored; replied to with a grunt or met with a forced smile and reply through gritted teeth. What a difference from last year when we chatted with everyone around us, exchanged stories and suggestions on where to go; what to do where to eat etc. If someone had been thinking of joining the Caravan Club, they would have been seriously put off. The exception were two teenagers who's adorable 12 week puppy I met outside reception. They were happy to talk about their new arrival and where they were planning to take him. Despite this I'm sure we'll be back - not next year though, I've got my niece's wedding in the States in August. Don't let me put you off though - it's a great site and well worth going to. If only it wasn't so far away - oh well, ho-hum
