Cosawes Park Reviews

Very noisy road but great facilities

Summary: camping is next to a national road causing lots of road noise making it hard to sleep/relax but very good facilities. The camping area only had a thin hedge separating you and a national road, resulting in a huge amount of road noise, with the pitches lined up along this hedge. During the first night, there was also what seemed like some loud live music nearby which kept us up for a number of hours. It was very hard to sleep - however, I could have got past this with earplugs, but worse for me was that when sitting by the tent, rather than peace and nature, all I could hear and feel was cars. The team running the site were lovely with very clean facilities and great showers - there was also plenty of them with a covered wash area. The freezer was very frosted, meaning the ice packs did not freeze properly which could require replacing.

Site's response

Thank you for your review. We can only apologise that your stay was noisy, this is very unusual as Frog Lane (the B road that runs alongside the site) is only small and normally very quiet. We can also only apologise for the 'loud noise' that you mentioned. Sadly this was completely out of our hands. There was a Truck Show happening at Stithians showground that weekend, and despite the showground being 3 miles away, the acoustics of the valley and countryside meant that somehow we were hearing some of their festivities. Thank you for your positive comments about the staff and the facilities, we will be sure to pass them on to the cleaning and wardening teams, and we will also be sure to double check the frostiness of our communal freezer! Thanks for letting us know about that one. We sincerely hope that your positive experiences outweigh the negative ones and that you will consider camping with us again.

Best site we’ve ever stayed on

Clean and tidy utilities, very well-kept site. Will be definitely using again.

New favourite

This is our new favourite site, nearby bus routes into Truro and Falmouth. Huge dog walking field opposite campsite, approx 1 mile to walk around with a river running through the centre. The site is clean and well maintained and the staff are friendly and helpful. In my opinion, no room for improvement - well done Cosawes, we will definitely be seeing you again.

Site's response

Wow! Always great to be added to a campers favourites list! It's great to hear that you enjoyed your stay and the exercise fields. The dogs do enjoy it over there, especially the stream in the hotter weather. We will be sure to pass on your comments about the facilities to the cleaning and wardening teams, and we look forward to welcoming you back again in the future.

Awesome campsite

Have just returned home from staying at this lovely campsite, and already am booking again for next year. I have little bad to say about my stay, but lots of good things. If you want a peaceful, quiet, well attended and looked after campsite with good facilities, then this is the place. If you have a dog then the dog walking area across the road is second to none. Access to both Truro and Falmouth is good with regular affordable buses and the site itself is well laid out and run by a team of amazing guys, who bend over backwards to welcome you and make your stay as comfortable as possible. My only complaint? I had to leave!!

Site's response

Thank you for your review, and we are sorry that you had to leave but sadly this is the way with holidays! That said, it's great to know that we can look forward to welcoming you back again in the future! We are always chuffed to know that a guest has enjoyed their stay on Cosawes, and we will definitely pass on your wonderful praise of the facilities to our wardening and cleaning teams. Thank you also for your comments on the dog exercise fields. The dogs really do love it over there - the humans too - and many a ball has been lost and found in that stream!

Warm and welcoming environment

I was made to feel very welcome, and the staff were so helpful. A perfect start to my stay. The facilities are super clean and modern.

Cosawes premium pitch

Excellent site. Good facilities, very nice shower/toilet block. Receptionist very friendly and informative. Will definitely use this site again in the future.

Thank you for review. We are genuinely pleased that you enjoyed your stay on Cosawes and we will pass on your comments about the shower/toilet block to the cleaning teams. We look forward to welcoming you back again in the future.

Lovely campsite

Lovely campsite with gorgeous views of the surrounding fields, where you're able to walk around and let the dog off the lead. Got a taxi in Falmouth for the day, but you can drive/get a bus. Everything was really clean and good facilities.

Site's response

Thank you for your review. It is great to know that you enjoyed your stay and that your dog was able to make the most of the walking fields - many a ball has been lost and found in that stream! We hope that we can look forward to welcoming you back again in the future.

Great site

Very peaceful site with great dog walks, will return.

Site's response

Thank you for your review. So great to know that you had an enjoyable and peaceful stay. We look forward to welcoming you back again in the future.

Good centre for visiting the Peninsula

A good centre for visiting Cornwall. Good size pitches but felt a bit sterile without the grass between hard standing. Not really a site for sitting outside in the sun- bit like sitting in a car park. Toilets nice and clean but style a bit old fashioned with Formica divisions etc. Friendly staff, relaxed about siting on pitch, which is refreshing after club sites with a fixed plan for siting. Like the idea of choosing pitch when booking before arrival.

Amazing place

The most amazing place. Spotlessly clean. Very quiet and perfect. We will definitely be going back!!

Site's response

Hello! Thank you so much for such a positive review! We are genuinely pleased to know that you enjoyed your stay and had a peaceful break away. We look forward to welcoming you back again in the future.

Beautiful rural campsite

A beautiful campsite. Felt very rural, waking up to bird song, yet only 500 yards from the A39. The cleanest campsite we've stayed on in a long time and the underfloor heating in the shower block was a real bonus on a frosty morning. Being 'adult only' wasn't a problem for us this time, but will mean we won't be able to bring our granddaughter to this site. The dog walking paddock is vast and we saw plenty of wildlife on the river running through it. Our dog loved being able to run and sniff everything. All in all, a lovely stay and we will be back again.

Site's response

Thank you so much for such a detailed review! It's genuinely great to hear that you enjoyed your stay, especially the underfloor heating on a frosty morning. We will be sure to pass your positive comments about the facilities on to the wardening and cleaning teams. It's also brilliant to see the dog walking fields referred to as a 'paddock' as they really are huge and many a ball has been lost and found in that stream! We sincerely hope that we can welcome both you and your dog back again in the future.

Relaxing and warm

Lovely clean site - showers warm and underfloor heating very luxurious! Friendly and kind people.

Site's response

Thank you for your review. It is great to know that you enjoyed your stay and that you found the site a friendly and relaxing place to be. We hope that we can welcome you back again in the future.

Good, clean facilities

Spacious, level pitch - suitable for all weathers! Electric and water within pitch. We arrived in darkness but the site and pitch were easy to find and close to the toilets and showers. Toilets and showers were very warm, clean and spacious.

Site's response

Thank you for your review, Michaela. We are really pleased to know that you enjoyed your stay and found your pitch to be spacious and well serviced. We will be sure to pass your comments about the facilities on to the cleaning team as they work hard keeping everything up to a high standard. Thanks again for taking the time to review, and we hope we can look forward to welcoming you back again in the future.

Really well-maintained campsite.

Thank you for your review. Great to know that you enjoyed your stay and found Cosawes to be 'top-notch'! We hope we can look forward to welcoming you back again in the future.

Quite scenic location

We had a five night stay here. It was lovely. Central to quite a lot of popular locations. Very peaceful and staff were helpful and friendly. The only thing missing really was a small shop on site.

Site's response

Thank you for such a lovely little review! We are always pleased to know that guests have enjoyed their stay with us on Cosawes. We can only apologise for the lack of shop, but whilst there is not one on-site, there are 2 local farm shops within a short walking distance, so we can only hope that you were able to make good use of those while you were here. Many thanks again for your review and we hope that we can welcome you back again in the future.

Fantastic site

The best site you could ever wish to experience. The site is well kept, great location and the facilities are perfectly clean. Laundry and dish wash facilities and immaculate shower and toilets. Great value for money and the best site I have ever visited.

Site's response

WOW!! "The best site you could ever wish to experience" - what more can we hope for! So very pleased that you enjoyed your stay with us and that we managed to meet your expectations. We will definitely pass your fabulous comments on to the cleaning and wardening teams - they work brilliantly keeping the site up to a great standard and it's always nice to know when guests have appreciated it. Thank you again, and we hope we can look forward to welcoming you back to Cosawes in the future.

Peaceful, immaculate adult-only site

We cannot fault this site at all. Perfect location on a bus route for exploring all parts of Cornwall. Large, serviced hard standing pitch. Immaculately maintained site in all respects. Heated toilet shower blocks, laundry, use of freezer & fridge. There was a well stocked tourist info hut. Easy access off the main road, but noise can be heard. Peace and quiet, yet so close to Falmouth and surrounding areas. Nothing less than perfect. Thank you.

Site's response

Thank you so much for your lovely review! Peaceful, immaculate and nothing less than perfect - what more can we ask for! We will definitely pass your comments on to the cleaning and wardening teams as they work hard keeping the site up to scratch. Thank you again and we look forward to welcoming you back again in the future.

Clean, tidy park

Stayed at Cosawes Park for 7 nights in a tent at the end of July 22. Extremely clean and tidy site with all the facilities needed to have a relaxing holiday. The site is extremely quiet and benefits from being an adult only site, the pitches are large with enough space in-between to have privacy. Cosawes is conveniently located between Truro and Falmouth which are both 15 minutes away, Newquay and St Ives are around an hour away give or take so location is ideal Would highly recommend and would stay again

Site's response

Thank you so much for your review. It is brilliant to know that you enjoyed your stay and found us to be a good location for exploring Cornwall! Also great to know that you found the site to be clean and tidy. We will pass these comments on to the wardening and cleaning team as they work hard to keep everywhere looking fab. We look forward to welcoming you back again in the future.

Quiet and peaceful

Clean, quiet, adults only park with well- tended grounds and facilities. My only gripe…the price. The basic cost is £27.50 for EHU grass site and that was for two people. Each additional person pays extra per night but no reduction for myself as a single camper. An ideal location for the event I was attending.

Thank you for your review, we hope that we can welcome you back again in the future.

Brilliant first time camping experience!

It was our first time camping and we can honestly say it was a much better experience than we thought it would be! The site was lovely, quiet and the facilities were very clean. We'll definitely be going to stay again and would highly recommend it if you've never been!

Site's response

Ah, the first camping experience is always a great memory! People either love it and so begins a lifelong passion for camping as a way to holiday, or they hate it and never try it again. Sounds like your first experience was more of the 'love it' variety, and we are honoured to have been your first campsite! We look forward to seeing you again in the future, and until then... happy camping!

Graduation stay

Son and daughter both graduating from Falmouth uni that week, stayed at Cosawes for this. Arrived late, attendant appeared as soon as we notified arrival, showed us to pitch, pointed out facilities and handed out camp map and leaflets. Pitch was good size, facilities spotless, no problems (aside from what was presumably a bird scarer, or possibly an armed lunatic intent on ridding Cornwall of rabbitkind). We enjoyed our stay and my daughter intends to rebook when she visits Falmouth in August.

Site's response

Thank you for your review! So glad that you enjoyed your stay with us, and that your daughter intends to revisit visit again. We will be sure to pass your comments on to the wardening and cleaning teams, as they all work hard to keep the site up to standard, and also to make sure that guests feel welcomed on arrival. Thank you again and we look forward to welcoming you back again in the future.

Lovely campsite

This was one of the best sites we've been on. The toilets, showers and washing-up facilities were always spotless. I would recommend this site to everybody.

Site's response

Thank you for such a great review. So great to know that you enjoyed your stay and that you would recommend us. Hopefully we can look forward to welcoming you back again in the future.

Cracking site

Warm welcome, good size pitches, spotless facilities and a great dog field - two fields over a stream, mown routes and fenced.

Site's response

Thank you so much for a 'cracking' review! We are very pleased that you enjoyed your stay with us and found time to enjoy the exercise fields and the stream! Great for dogs and humans alike! Hopefully we can look forward to welcoming you back again in the future.

Fantastic

Very nice site and very peaceful. Site staff were very friendly as were the fellow campers. We wanted to visit Falmouth and it was only 20 minutes on the bus, which are quite frequent and the bus stop is only a 1 minute walk down the road. 100% recommend!

Site's response

Thank you so much for your review. It is great to hear that you enjoyed your stay and managed to explore some of Falmouth! We hope to welcome you back again in the future.

Great campsite in good location

My wife and I stayed here with our dog for 3 nights. Facilities were good with plenty of places to go explore. Dog walking field was pretty special and the dog friendly Stag Inn pub up the hill was a winner for food and drinks (much better than Norway Inn that's in opposite direction).

Site's response

Thank you for your review. We are so pleased that you and your dogs had a chance to explore our dog fields and enjoy the stream! Hopefully we can look forward to welcoming you back again in the future.
