We stayed for a long weekend, the site is very nice. Spotless facilities, layout is good so the site doesn't feel as large as it is. No mobile phone signal but wifi is available if needed.
Staff were very friendly. We had a hard standing pitch and they had obviously put a lot of effort into levelling the pitches when they created the site.
The lane is a but of a scary tow and there is no avoiding it, but we didn't come across any other caravans so all good.
Two adults, 15 year old girl and 11 year boy stayed here for the last two weeks of August including the August Bank Holiday weekend.
Arrival: I can see why they say do not arrive early and leave on time – the access road is an uphill single track road about about 1/3 mile long with limited passing places. If you meet a caravan coming the other way, you’re basically knackered unless you’re great at reversing (we did and I’m not!).
We arrived 11:15 on Sunday morning and on arrival, there’s an arrivals field to the left where you park up in line (takes around 15 cars / caravans) and at midday, one of the wardens comes up the hill and calls 3 outfits at a time down to reception to look for a pitch and book in.
You should make use of your time in the arrivals field by looking around the site for a few pitches you like as the procedure (at peak times it seems) is to get called down to reception at which point, you leave the outfit in front of reception and go and choose a pitch whilst you’re parked up at reception.
It doesn’t seem too efficient but I can 100% see whilst they do it as loads of vans all manoeuvring through the site at the same time would be a nightmare.
All in all, check-in was well organised and hassle free (but we were second in the arrivals queue with about another 10 outfits behind us and had a good choice of pitches).
Pitches: We went for a hard standing on ‘the shelf’. The awnings are South facing so with the way the hedging is, you get ok morning sun and brilliant day / evening sun.
The pitches on the shelf are undoubtedly tight if you pitch the van ‘on the peg’. My car (admittedly a largish 4x4) encroached slightly on the 6-foot wide grass area of the pitch to the left of mine. A mover is essential for ‘the shelf’ as there’s a low fence directly opposite.
My advice (if you can get away with it) would be to give yourself a few extra inches and pitch slightly to the right of the peg – you’ll still have space to get the awning on the hard standing and also the car. We had a look at the other pitches at the site - there’s a huge variety and you’ll find something that suits (the problem may be that there’s already someone pitched in it though!).
We like the hard standings but they do have a regimented feel to them and are definitely smaller than the grass pitches. On the downside, the grass pitches slope a little so blocks (warden supplied) may be required. If we visit again, we would go for ‘the shelf’ again.
On site facilities: Given we were in the middle of the school holidays, the site was fully booked but felt fine. There were loads of kids of all ages scootering / biking / skateboarding so be prepared for this if you get a corner pitch near the bottom of the site. Everything quietens down with sunset.
A butcher visits a couple of times a week (we didn’t try) as does a mobile burger / fish & chip van. The fish and chips were absolutely lovely but you do have to wait for up to 20 mins as they cook to order. Get up there as they set-up and get your order in. Plenty of water / waste points throughout the site.
There’s a play-field which attracted the kids – we didn’t go in there. Dog walking facilities were excellent - as well as the area on the site, a public footpath runs though the middle of the site (behind ‘the shelf’). There’s absolutely no mobile phone signal (on O2 and 3 at least) unless you walk up to the arrivals field.
We used the club wireless internet and it was fine – a bit flaky in the evenings but ok for checking e-mails / browsing. The shop stocked the essentials for emergency purchases. There’s nothing close by (pubs / eating places) so you need to get in the car unless you’re just out for a walk. When you come out of the site, you can turn right to go into Perranporth – we did and regretted it.
The access road is like a 3-lane motorway compared to the road if you turn right out of the site – avoid!
Toilet block: This seems to be a common cause for complaint. When we were there, the site was full. In the gents, there are (from memory!) 9 showers, 5 sinks and 6 toilets and some urinals (I think in the ladies there are extra toilets to replace the urinals). We never had to queue for a shower but did see a queue or 2-3 people a couple of times around 10am (they close at 10. 30 for cleaning).
There were a couple of times where there was also a queue for ‘the traps’ in the gents…there’s nothing like a warm seat in the morning. All in all, we were fine with the toilet-block facilities. There’s a very useful wet-suit shower outside the toilet block and a washing up area.
The toilet block is pretty central to the site so if you’re at the top / the bottom, you’ll have a few minutes uphill / downhill walk - fine if you’re able.
In the area: Perranporth / Newquay are about 6 miles / 15 mins away. In Perranporth, it was pretty busy when the sun was out and we parked in the municipal car-park at £6 per 24 hours (we used the mobile phone booking service which was great).
There are cheaper parking options but there involve a longer walk to the beach – fine if you’re not lugging loads of stuff for a day-out. The beach there is brilliant. Padstow (the speedboat trip is brill), St Agnes, St Ives and Porthtowan all get honourable mentions as great places to visit – we weren’t disappointed with anywhere we visited – Cornwall really is a great place.
We mainly ate in the van but did have a meal out in ‘the Watering Hole’ on Perranporth beach. It was lovely to see the sun go down whilst eating. Prices were ok, ok service and good food. It was busy but I think that was because there was a prem match on sky. The Perran Dairy Ice-cream parlor and Chapman’s butchers in the high-street were both excellent.
There’s a couple of low cost supermarkets in Perrsaporth and a larger Morrisons on the way to Newquay.
Overall, this is a lovely site and we’d visit again.
We have recently returned from a stay at this beautiful site. The site is kept in pristine condition by the most friendliest and hardworking Wardens we have encountered during our years with the Club.
The site is well managed with hardstanding and grass pitching arears which make the site very pretty and spacious.
The site is on the doorstep to the most beautiful beaches Crantock and Holywell Bay. The location makes this a great base to tour the Cornwall Coast.
Pay this site a visit it's a must! Thank you Treamble for a great stay we'll be back soon.
Nestling right in the middle of the countryside half way between Perranporth and Newquay is this lovely site, mostly sloping with a mixture of grass and hard standing pitches.
Typical Caravan Club site of a very high standard. Plenty of hook ups with TV points too. Plenty of bins regularly emptied. Plenty of water points etc. Wardens are very friendly and keep the site beautiful with spotless showers and toilets and weed free gardens.
There is a choice of dog walks, their own which is also a nature trail and a public footpath that goes through the site. If you like wildlife you will love this site, there are so many rabbits here, they come out in broad daylight as well as at night, then there are Buzzards calling to each other and circling around, at night there are bats and owls calling, it’s enchanting.
There is a large play area for kids and the site certainly attracts a lot of kiddies in the school holidays, riding around on scooters and bikes.
There is no phone signal though; you have to walk up to the top of the site to get anything. The shop is very small, they don’t sell much, there is a Londis in Cubert 3 miles away, there is also good phone signal there, or there is a big Morrisons in Newquay 4. 5 miles away.
A butcher comes to the site 3 times a week selling meat, sausages, eggs, black pudding, cream, desserts etc. , a Fish & Chip van comes twice a week and a lady selling strawberries about once a week. The shop will get you a paper if you order one.
A small south facing camping and caravanning site situated on the southern edge of Bodmin Moor near Liskeard, Cornwall with views over surrounding countryside. Two areas for tents, caravans and motorhomes with hardstanding or grass pitches, with or without electric hook ups. Glamping at Fursdon includes 3 stunning Pods, an authentic Shepherds Hut, as well as a fantastic communal cooking and social area.
Superb facilities including toilets, showers and laundry, site wide WIFI, designated dog-walking area, reception area and small shop and an electric vehicle charging point. Ideally situated for access to beaches and moorland in Cornwall and west Devon! Find out more here
Have just returned from a fantastic weeks holiday to this site. Probably one of the best sites we have visited to date. Shower block/toilets spotless as were the rest of the grounds. Dog walk was a delight and a good walk to local beaches including hollywell bay.
Local butcher comes three times a week, as does the fish & chip van twice. Having a car is a must as there are so many beaches & coves to explore.
If dogs are a factor, you can find a 'beach dog friendly' guide in reception. Trevaunance Cove is a lovely cove with the Driftwood Spas Pub & on the road to the cove a new cafe called Genki.
Highly recommended. Perranporth & its beach is just as lovely as we remembered from years past & a drink at the Watering Hole was welcome after a day on the beach. Yes, we had sunshine everyday & came home with quite a respectable tan!
One last thing I must mention are the wardens Jan & her crew, who made our stay even more special by managing to squeeze us in for an extra night as the weather was so good. Will definitely be returning.
This is without doubt one of the best caravan club sites we have ever stayed at. Best for utter peace and quiet, rural location, close to fabulous walks, beaches, gardens, good pubs etc
We stayed with our two dogs who were in absolute heaven with the official dog walk, plus local footpaths leading direct from the site down to perran sands or holywell.
There is absolutely no mobile signal and you need a plug in cable for the tv point in the bollard.
The site was spotless, the facilities excellent with a huge field/playground for kids allowing the rest of us to sit in peace.
The site is on a real hill so people with walking difficulties would struggle, but then this matches the rest of cornwall!
Best gardens were Trevarno (dog friendly) and eden ( not dog friendly) and super pub the driftwood spars at trevaunance cover, the beach hut cafe at watergate bay and The Watering Hole on perran sands (all dog friendly).
The icing on the cake was the friendliest most helpful caravan club wardens we have ever met with lots of top tips on places to go etc
We will definitely go back to Cornwall and to treamble for another holiday.
Having just spent 10 days at this site and found it to be well maintained with friendly wardens. On arrival the wardens advise you to go and have a walk around to choose your pitch, which was well worth while as it's not the easiest of sites to drive round (a bit hilly in places and some pitches are very uneven).
Although this site has only 1 toilet block there were plenty of loos and showers, we never had to wait to use either and when they are closed for cleaning there is a standby toilet. There is a large play area for the younger children which is fenced off and dogs are not allowed in.
The dog walk is by far the best that has been at any site we have been at in the past and our cocker spaniel had a great time running round all the different paths.
We visited most of the surrounding area and our favourites were Padstow and St Ives but beware parking can be a bit of a problem especially when the suns out. We also highly recommend a visit to the Minack Theatre at Porthcurno and if your looking for a bite to eat try the Taphouse in St Agnes huge portions and good value.
Myself, wife and 2 dogs(excellent dog walk) returned from a 2 week stay here in June.
We had this site highly recommend. We always go off our first impressions on a site, and we were not disappointed. The entrance to this site is striking and very pretty set in a lovely valley away from it all. Site is immaculate and well managed. The toilet block is pristine.
The Wardens are very friendly and knowledgeable of the area and advised us on lovely days out. There are great beaches on your doorstep and lots to do in the area. We will definitely return to this site which must be the best site we have stayed on in many years Caravanning.
Self, adult son and two dogs stayed here for 10 days, had booked for 7 but it was such a lovely place, extended our visit.
Had a lovely grass pitch in a little glade, right by the dog walk. This is a superb facility and like the rest of the site, beautifully kept by the efficient and very helpful wardens. Usual excellent CC standards, but with a little bit extra as the wardens are so nice!
Unfortunately, some owners were a little careless about pop scooping, this made me cross.
There were ample bins, so no excuse what-so-ever!
Ideal location for touring Cornwall, especially good for north coast beaches. We took our dogs on 8 different beaches,all beautiful,from Perranporth up as far as Padstow.
Mobile phone signal is obtainable from the top of the drive- bit patchy but possible!
Absolutely loved this site and will definitely use it whenever I am in Cornwall.
It is quite big and I probably would only use it outside school holidays. Lovely for youngsters though- nice play area and lots of places to take them on non-beach days.
