Small Tent - Electric Grass PitchesAug 2024

The campsite is very basic but has what is needed and much cheaper than other campsites anywhere near St Ives. It is nice and quiet and very peaceful. No issues using bathrooms or cleaning facilities, even at busy times. On site food truck was great but not open consistently. Would be much better if the on-site pub was open.

Lovely site

Large A-class or Tag Axle Motorhome - Large Electric PitchesAug 2024

Lovely spot, asked if we could change pitches so we could get the motorhome out easily and was not a problem. Lovely friendly people. Would definitely go again.

Won’t be coming back

VW-Type Campervan - Electric Grass PitchesAug 2024

Great location. Made good use of buses but no visitor information given by staff on arrival. The shop and reception was closed throughout our stay. No given reason as to why. Showers and toilets were dirty, didn't appear to be cleaned daily. Some toilet and shower cubicles were locked and not accessible. A complete block of showers/toilets were closed. The grey waste/toilet waste disposal points were very smelly. Didn't see any staff members around the site during our stay. Very disappointing.
