Another fab time
One of the best friendless sites in Cornwall. Fab but not a lot for families to do. Great for couples wanting to go on walks and coastal path trips

site in school hols
Love this site - wardens brilliant, ready to go the extra mile. Found the site different in school hols.........prefer it out of season. Found the constant changing of pitches a bit unsettling. Shall certainly return next year

One of the best on the network
A fabulous site with great views run by excellent wardens who have a great sense of humour.
Although there are many pitches, they are all spread so one still gets the feeling the site is smaller than it is.
Well worth a visit and a credit to the club.
Putting Blankets on sunbeds!
My family drove down to Cornwall during the early hours, to arrive early at the site. We were first in the queue hours before we could book in. At the office, we were told we would be called first. The queue built up considerably behind us and the occupants started roaming the site. When we were called in we said we knew the pitch we wanted from previous years, and it was vacant. We were told we had to go and stand on the pitch and return with the number. We legged it up to pitch 69 only to find people from the end of the queue, standing on it and putting items on the pitch next to it. They said they had got to it first, they were about 8th in the queue and they had not paid and booked in as we were first in the office. We had paid. We went back to the office and told the office person, who shrugged it off, smiled and laughed, but made no attempt to rectify the situation. Not wanting to cause a fuss, or tackle the person standing on the pitch, we chose another pitch. Another person later commented, something similar had happened when they arrived earlier in the week. I love this site, its about our 4th year in a row, and have been there lots of times before, and this has never been allowed before. I can highly recommended the actual position of the site, its facilities and Tintagel, I love it. But unfortunately this did sour the stay for us, and was unfair in our opinion. I think a change is called for next year, and we probably won't renew our membership now.

The windy city
The site was clean and tidy and the wardens were friendly but it is the windiest place we have ever been, we stayed 10 nights in July and there was only one evening when you could sit out without being blown away.
Just the Tonic...
and cider, red and white wine admiring the stunning sunsets on the 4 nights we had there.
We had pitch 86 with fantastic views, a short stroll to the facilities either on the level, or down the slope.
No need to engage in the tango, but watching people taking part was amusing. Particularly when someone moved a marker from a pitch, to be caught out and then denied the soon to be free pitch the catcher didn't let on about.
The kids cache was a lovely way to entertain our daughter, including Dad finding the clues. The play area is more than a filed, it has swings and climbing frames which is ample for kids to make friends and enjoy their time.
We had a non cooking Sunday, pre ordering cream teas the night before, which were sufficient to provide lunch for 3 days. The fish & chip van is very good value with gigantic portions. We had eaten at Rick Steins in Padstow earlier in our holiday. We will use the van again.
The walk down to the nearby beach makes a great day out.
Facilities spotless, wardens very helpful.
We will visit this stunning site again.
Weeding in the rain!
Weather was rubbish but this site is great with wonderful views. Toilet/shower block is clean and warm and has that hotel feel with the piped music! Wardens are friendly and helpful and go above and beyond their call of duty - they were weeding the gravel areas (on their knees) in the rain!

Nice break
We arrived last minute dot com. Tom and his partner were very helpful in finding us a pitch for the 3 nights as we could only book 2 nights when booking. the staff were very friendly and helpful. The site was very clean and well managed it is also in a fantastic location. The hand drier in the ladies toilet didn't work for the three nights we were there with no paper towels available either and that is my reason for the lost mark. As we had taken our grandchildren we were a little disappointed there was no play area hence the other lost mark. Would we go again? Most definitely because it is a lovely place the site is in a great location, the staff are great and it is in easy reach of Boscastle and Padstow. Thanks for a nice break despite the weather.
Comment from The Club
Many thanks for leaving a review. Trewethett Farm does have a play area for ball games and it is located in front of Pollards Cottage. A copy of the Site map can be downloaded from the website by clicking on the link and you will be able to see PA for Play Area clearly marked. I hope that helps to address your concerns and thanks again for leaving a review.
Stunning position
Not a bad pitch on this site. Why people feel the need to swap pitches after 2 days is beyond me. Helpful and courteous staff as always. Great views and walks direct from site. Dogs all on leads and no mess. Good work. We will be back later in the season.
10 out of 10
Wow what super views you get from this place. The wardens need 10 out of 10 for their friendless, always helpful even when off duty, and in keeping this site one of the best caravan club sites. Good walks along the coastal path from the site. Great for all with lots of history nearby and some super beaches around 5 miles away. A must is to visit Granny Wobbly’s fudge pantry in Tintagel for fudge or an ice cream.
