Beautiful location with great staff.

Beautiful location with stunning views out to sea and on the other side to the Beacon. Perfect place for a morning coffee. A lovely evening stroll - approx 30-45 mins, around the Beacon to the lovely village of St Agnes where there are a few pubs with good food. I would recommend The Peterville Inn where we had amazing sea food sat outside in the sunshine. If you want to go further afield - there are some beautiful walks around St Agnes Heritage Coast and the SW coast path. The site itself is very tidy and well looked after, with plenty of disposal and refilling facilities. There is no shower or toilet block. We arrived later than most others (mid afternoon) so most pitches were taken, but the owners were very helpful as we tried to find a less inclined pitch (we don't have the biggest of ramps.) Such friendly staff really made the stay more enjoyable.

Great site with Great Views

This is a great site, with amazing views out to sea. Our pitch was not particularly level and even the ramps made little impact. Nicely spaced apart so you don't feel on top of each other. No facilities at this site so the impact of the covid restrictions were limited. Fish & Chip van visits the site, but take the time on the board to be an approximation only. The site does suffer from sea mist, so it can look miserable in the mornings, but step off the site and you will soon be out of the mist and into the sunshine. There is a new tea room just up the road from the site, (turn right out of gate) and this is well worth a visit. Tip: Download the iwalk cornwall app and you can download a walk along the coastal path from Chapel Porth to St Agnes. It tells you where to go and even bleeps at you if you go the wrong way.

As good as ever!

We have been visiting this site for over 30 years and it is as good as ever. Probably the fullest, no doubt due to covid-19, that we have ever seen it. Nonetheless it is perfect for the beach, coastal walks and St.Agnes. Wardens were very pleasant, friendly and helpful. Aways worth a visit.

What a shame

Wonderful views and great walks from the site along the coast path. Disappointing attitudes of the wardens meant that we have never been so keen to leave a site before.

Great views

Lovely caravan site overlooking Chapel Porth and the tin mines, great for walking although challenging in places, steep parts down to the beach and down to Trevanaunce bay, can also walk to Porthtowan which takes about 45min. The site itself is quite big but still pretty peaceful and great pitches, some with better views than others. I would personally say great site for adults, not much for kids to do on site and quite a walk to the beach for younger ones which is why I only starred 3 for families. The wardens were very friendly as well, we will definitely be coming back.

We didn't see the sea.......

Unfortunately we hit a very wet week for our stay here and only really saw the view from the website photos! On the plus side the wardens must be the one of the most friendly teams on the network - still smiling through torrential rain and the laundry room with tumble drier was an unexpected bonus. Sadly we will probably not return due to the rather miserable dog 'scuttle' on site. It really cannot be called a dog walk. Sites which have really spacious dog exercise areas are a real plus when the weather is foul.There is, of course, plenty of space nearby but letting a dog off on the precipitate coast path is always risky.

Just Perfect!

St Agnes Beacon is just perfect for us. This has been our second visit and won't be our last. The location couldn't be better. Fantastic views over the sea. Fabulous walks along the cliffs down to an old tin mine and on to Chapel Porth- our favourite beach. There are further walks along the beach at low tide as well as continuing along the coastal path on the cliffs. Another lovely walk is up to the Beacon itself with more stunning views. We continued down Into St Agnes itself;a lovely little village with its own museum and excellent micro brewery as well pubs, restaurants and delightful bakery. St Ives, Truro, Falmouth and Penzance are all within easy driving distance. The site itself is beautifully maintained and has the friendliest wardens we have met. For us this feels like a big CL, and that's a good thing! Hopefully the lack of shower blocks and toilets will put some people off coming so we can get back again!😊

Glorious coastline.

We return again and again to this site. This is our fist visit in September though, and was expecting to miss out on the heather which is at its best in July and August however what a treat to see the bracken out in in all its glorious yellow, and in patches around the coast line the heather hung in there too and with the vibrant blue sea the scenery is breath taking. The walks off this site are all you need for a fantastic break from the norm. Being a coastal site the weather chops and changes, so one day you could be basking in glorious sunshine and the next in gale force winds and driving rain. When the sun shine's there is nowhere on hearth we'd rather be. Oh and if you are a Poldark fan...........well enjoy!!

Amazing

A fabulous site with the most stunning views. Wardens were superb. This site is in a great location much to see and do in the area. The site doesn’t have a toilet block, but did have a useful laundry. The site is immaculate and a credit to the wardens. Highly recommended.
