Real nice site close to a good sandy beach, great for boarding. Central location for the south of Cornwall. Variety of accommodation to suit most budgets. Very competitive prices out of season

Excellent value for money, we’ve visited three times now and have already booked for next year. We visit in May half term and the park is very quiet, just what we’re after. Short walk, or even short drive, to the beautiful Praa Sands beach, on a reliable bus route (the app is fantastic!) and good road links. So much to do in the local area, with stunning scenery. Small play area, indoor pool and gym located on site, as well as a clubhouse type bar/restaurant. We ate here out first visit but not since, learned this year they have changed hands and seemed better - but we ran out of time this time too! Staff all very friendly and helpful. Cannot wait to go back next year.

Lovely site, peaceful and not too big so not packed. Our caravan could have done with a wash outside as the veranda was all green and grubby, and the mattresses were really uncomfortable, but I guess this is down to the owner of the caravan. We enjoyed our stay though, our hot tub was great, the site was lovely and it was in a lovely location, within a 15 min walk to the beach (depending where your caravan is situated). We would stay again for a chill out week

Beautiful site with really friendly staff that went above and beyond. Beach is a 5-10 minute drive or a 20 minute walk. Perfect for those summer days, or winter walks.
