We chose this site and didn't really know what it would be like. We have a son with special needs who loves animals and he was in heaven! What a jewel.
The site was quiet and everyone and I mean everyone was friendly - the campers who have vans permanently on site who gave local knowledge on where to go and the owner who ran the riding school was more than happy to fit our son in for a lesson.
The toilet block is basic but clean there are no disabled or baby changing facilities. There is a lake in the middle which was home to some geese and babies which is fenced off.
The site is close to Port Issac, padstow (use the park and ride and walk in padstow is very busy). Palzeath is nice if the sun is out parking is a little pricey but the car park on the hill is good you can watch the surfing and take a picnic. Boscastle is pretty drive through and on the way out over the hill there is a cracking farmshop called Bostcastle cafe and farmshop for some lovely cheese and a cuppa.
So if lots of noise, club room and play parks is your idea of heaven this is not for you, if you like a lovely quiet site with lovely genuine people then this is heaven. Also children using imaginations and running around instead of playgrounds where quite frankly we find really stressful constantly having to tell our son to be gentle he can be himself here,

Situated in a quiet, picturesque valley this site offers a well kept, recently refurbished toilet block with free showers and wash up sinks and coin operated laundry facilities. There is also a small tea room serving possibly the best cream teas in the area. Very secure and safe for children but play facilities limited to a large grassed area for ball games etc. Excellent horse riding facilities as the site is linked to a very well run equestrian centre offering seriously good tuition at all levels. Leisure centre with sports facilities and swimming pool within walking distance. The site is well placed for those that enjoy surfing with good beaches within easy reach. As with all grassed sites prolonged rain is not ideal but the area is very quick to dry out once the weather improves. I have used this site for many years and have every intention of continuing to do so.

We selected this site as a base for three nights whilst touring the south-west. It is reached down a track involving much opening and closing of gates.
The site has a bit of a slope and we were right at the bottom of the field where it was very boggy on our arrival. The previous week had seen some torrential rain and it was raining again when we arrived to pitch (we'd driven through much worse conditions about an hour earlier). This also meant that we were furthest from the toilet block so it was a bit of a trek in the middle of the night.
The toilet block was OK considering - it was often wet and muddy but then so was the campsite. I got talking to some other guests who were in an old-fashioned tent (no bathtub groundsheet!) and had endured a steady stream of water through their tent a few days earlier.
I personally didn't find it the most attractive of sites - all a bit open and with wind turbines nearby, and I wouldn't rate it very highly for children in general (ie. unless pony-mad).
On the positive side, the owners were obliging, and will re-freeze your ice-packs for free and they have a tea room.
If you are into horse-riding then you will easily overlook any other drawbacks in the light of the equine facilities, which appeared (to a non-expert) to be exceptionally good. I'm not sure exactly what the site offers in the way of equine facilities but I think you might be able to stable your own pony or purchase riding experiences.
I doubt if I would return again myself but I can see why others would place it top of their list of preferred sites.

We went there in Aug 2007. And it was so nice we are returning this year with Guests! The pitches are a lovely size, Shower facilities were always clean and tidy. A few bugs in the morning but hey what do you expect in the middle of the countryside.
There are no parks or games rooms.Thank the bloody lord! Fantastic for your children to enjoy nature and use a little imagination! There is lots to explore and animals to see.
Maureen and her husband make you feel more than welcome, and her tea room is lovely. Last year was such a wash out for us, but it was that nice and we enjoyed it that much we are going back in a couple of weeks for a 2 week holiday.
I have recommended it to our friends and I would recommend it to you. If you want a break and to get away from it all then this is the place to go.

This site for us was disappointing. The pitches are close together, the toilet/shower blocks are not kept clean (my 8 year old wouldn't shower because of all the bugs) and the grounds are not well tended to. There were only two showers but they were free and the water was hot. We were allocated a pitch and when I asked if we could change pitches I was greeted with a very unhelpful response. There are no facilities for children to play on and they tended to congregate around the toilet block (not the best place). The equestrian centre attached is very good and the best riding school I have attended with regards to punctuality. The surrounding area is lovely. We visited the Conservative Club in Camelford (upon recommendation from a lady at the Co-Op) for a meal and it was excellent value for money with very good service, a varied menu and lots to choose from.

Stayed here for two nights so my daughter could have a horse riding lesson. The site is small so you feel cramped - two nights were fine. The showers are ok - there's no play area and not much grass to play on but it is in a rural setting so plenty of chance to hear owls and see the stars at night which is great.
The shop sells quite a few things and the owners are nice. The horse riding was very professional and it cost £17 for half an hour. It is definitely horsey so my husband who is allergic to horse hair was affected as the facilities are up towards the stables.
