Reviewer: Scarletsfan 92 reviews from this member

 Access to this site could not really be easier with a wide entrance directly off the A30 taking you down a single track private road int the site.

This is a working farm and you access reception and the site through the farm yard.

They are very flexible with regards to booking in. Although stipulated arrival time is 2. 30pm they are very flexible and accommodating. A large field is given over to early arrivals and if your pitch is empty you can go onto the site. We were pitching up at 9. 30am.

All pitched are on grass, , but the ground is firm so does not cut up. Ignore earlier observations about long grass as this simply isn't the case. All pitched are mown as they are vacated ready for the next occupants.

Reception sells a few essentials and the cafe seems to do a roaring trade.

The family that run this delightful site seem to really enjoy what they do. They are very pleasant and are always ready for a chat.

The toilet blocks are a throw back to the 1980s, but were functional none the less and were always clean when we went into them.

The site has a very interesting vibe with a great mix of clientèle. A Caravan Club site it is not though, so if you are expecting sparkling outfits, manicured lawns and 5* toilet blocks and enthusiastically enforced rules by ever present wardens you will be disappointed.

The site is in an exposed area catching everything that the Atlantic can throw at it and weather can change quickly.

There is a Cost Cutter in Sennen, a Co-op in St Just (both within a few miles), but for a big shop you will need to travel the 8 miles back to Penzance for Tesco or Morrisons.

 Easily the best campsite in Cornwall, great location, friendly staff ( lovely owners ) Gwenver beach just a short walk, awesome new shop/cafe, clean toilets and hot showers, just perfect, Sennen beach and Lands End very close bye, a great location for walks or cycling lovely views and dog friendly, only a few miles from places like Penzance, Mousehole the fishing port of Newlyn, lots of pubs and restaurants nearby selling mainly local produce and fresh local caught sea food, highly recommended !

Reviewer: Dawn72 1 review from this member

 We stayed at this site recently, and we couldn't wish for a better site. The views over the sea was fantastic. The toilets was very clean, and the showers do get very hot. The on-site cafe does excellent food daily. The staff are very friendly and welcoming, There is a nearby beach, but its a bit hard walking down, not good for prams. Lands End is only minutes away from the site, overall this is one of the best places we have stayed on, and we will be visiting again, thank you all for a wonderful stay.

Reviewer: Maureeen 2 reviews from this member

 After staying at Trevedra many times and after reading the previous review I am horrified to what people have said. There are plenty of toilets over the whole site, I would imagine over 30. The grass is cut daily and although at times it does get muddy what do you expect camping in England. It does rain! The toilets are cleaned at least twice daily but I have seen more and the main thing I like is there is always loo roll and plenty of hot showers! I have recently stayed in bude where I paid more money for a site that didn't even have a footpath walk, it was on the main road, we had to use the car to get anywhere, I would happily return to trevedra any day of the year, I just wish they were open all year round.

The new shop, cafe and reception area has made a huge improvement, we did used to enjoy the van but it now means we can eat our dinner in the warm cafe or take it away. The staff are always friendly, willing to help and will go out of their way to ensure you are happy. We have and always will return to trevedra and look forward to seeing the continuing improvements

Reviewer: Kim Stock 6 reviews from this member

 We have been coming here for the last 4 years now and camp in the Gwynver camping field nearest the beach path, 1 of 3 fields.

Whilst the campsite is very popular it hasn't changed for the better in the last 4 years we have been coming.

I just wish they'd have spent as much money on the toilet and showering areas as they did the 'office / shop / cafe with large screen tv'.

Whilst the toilets and showers at the office end of the park are adequate, they are not cleaned often enough and in the only 2 times I visited them although my son and his girlfriend used them every day, they were strewn with loo roll and on wetter days could do with mopping much more often, with clean water preferably with disinfectant in.

The lower toilets at the entrance to Gwynver field were a down right disgrace!

Very muddy and wet comes to mind and having to wade through the mud in sandals as it's squelching between your toes, before going to the loo for the ladies on wet days should not be allowed to happen.

The amount of profit you make Trevedra, I'm sure you could have found enough money to buy a tonne of gravel to lay there, as it has got gradually worse over the few years we have been coming.

There are also a few people being too loud and the odd vehicles driving through camp after 10pm, some after 11pm.

And one morning we woke up to find a man that moved into pitch 9 stood outside his tent and urinated against no:10's pitch post and the loo's were just 60-70metres away, disgusting!

For the 2nd year running we have used your launderette and whilst the washing machines are reasonably good the driers once again after putting in £2 of 20p's didn't dry a 1/2 load of a family wash, so gave up and we ended up drying/airing them off in the tent, not ideal when restricted to room.

Trevedra, you don't cut the grass often enough, even though it is sometimes wet. We saw a young lad only do it once the whole time we were there 10 days and he only did a few plots in our field, on the drier days which we had a few, these could be cut including on the grassy drive through areas. And tents too often place there guide ropes over their plot and onto the grassy drive throughs, as we had to move some just to get our car out.

The other thing that is annoying is the fact you have put your prices up comparable to those with a swimming pool and beach access, but your site is much below that grade and my teenage school/college 'kids' wouldn't have been charged as adults at 2 of the other sites we considered. The only reason we chose you this year was to get the days we needed, which is probably the best thing about your site, which is booking a pitch in advance and by the day.

The other good points on your site are accepting dogs, beach access, bus service at end of farm drive and the pitches being free draining even in heavy rain and a good firm pegging ground.

And please note as from next year the camping pitches are not allowing tents which do not fit 6mx6m.

Finally, sadly for us unless Trevedra sort out the loo issues, grass cutting, launderette driers and be a bit more strict on their night-time quietness policies, I cannot see us returning again, which is a real shame.

This site would be lovely and brilliant place to come if there were more emphasis on customer care and satisfaction.

Reviewer: Avdiro 2 reviews from this member

 We have visited Trevedra a number of times at varying times of the year. The location is excellent with sea views and it is possible to walk to the beach directly from the site although bit of a pull up the steps coming back, but worth it. Also can walk to Sennen via coastal path.

The showers and loos are unglamorous but very clean and wholesome and always plenty of hot water and plenty of them. Grey water and chemical waste disposal is easily accessible as are drinking water taps. There are wet suit washing facilities, laundry, freezer and good washing up provision. The site has a shop with general essentials and a cafe.

The site is level and pitches a good size. In the summer when it is very full with surfers it is remarkably quiet and we have never experienced any excessive noise or trouble even with hundreds (probably) of young people.

It is family run site within a working farm. They are helpful and friendly, The site is well organised particularly when it is full with clearly roped off areas for surfers tents, and grass is kept short We don't need it but I know that wi fi is available and a laptop charging service.

The charges are reasonable and good value for money.

We will be visiting this September and expect to use this site over and over.

 We selected this site as we were travelling from St Austell to a performance at the Minack Theatre and needed somewhere reasonably close by to pitch for 1 night. We therefore did not sample the beach or walks from the site.

The staff at reception were helpful and whilst we did not use the modern cafe/ shop, many people appeared to. Facilities were a little basic abd centrally located near to the reception building which was OK for us as we weren't too far away but I could imagine it being difficult for others pitching further away.

This is a very large site. Whilst we were there, it was very busy and felt very cramped. The state of the facilities also reflected the number of people using them. It wasn't our favourite of the 4 we used during the week but it was OK for our needs.

Reviewer: Jayarbee 47 reviews from this member

 This was our third stay at this site.

It is quite a big site being part Caravan Club and part not. They also admit tents.

We already knew where we wanted to be so booked early and had a pitch down the bottom. Pitched back to front and sat looking out over the bay.

Wendy and John are fairly relaxed and try their best to make sure you have a good stay. Whilst they don't have loads of rules they do enforce the few there are. (late night noise)

They do expect parents to be responsible for their own children, bit radical but a good idea.

The facilities are basic but clean. There were plenty of people there but we had no problems getting in the showers in the morning.

There is a shop and cafe which seemed popular.

They do have a large field in which kids can run wild, unfortunately some people use it to dog walk.

This is a lovely area with too much to do to list here but there is an information point with the usual leaflets. The staff are always willing to help and advise.

There is a farmer's market on Tuesday at Sennen which is well worth a visit. Superb artisan bread, smoked fish, local veg and very good cakes.

Do take the 300 open topped bus around the peninsular. This is a smashing ride and you can break you journey and rejoin later. If you get the first bus out about 9. 30am you can stay in St Ives and come back late afternoon.

If you have kids you can walk to the beach from the site.

There is loads of walking to do here from the site.

All in all this is a good site to be at and we shall return.

You can even hear the sealions at night.

 Stunning location, wouldn't go back if you paid me.

This is by far the worst campsite I've ever visited, I've been to quieter, cleaner rock festivals!

The site appeared to have the sole objective of cramming as many people in as possible with the sole objective of making money.

Toilets were disgusting to the point of making me gag, 9 showers for 5 camping fields! Appalling.

How this site ever achieved caravan club status I don't know.

I learned a valuable lesson, have a good look round before paying up front.

Unless you are 18 and looking to party, avoid this like the plague.

 Location itself was great and within walking distance from a great beach. It's situated just off the main road, so very easy to find.

Facilities, I'd describe as average. A bit messy at times, but I can appreciate that this happens quickly with so many people. The secondary block of toilets became really quite dirty, so best to use the main block near reception. Showers were good and hot.

This is a busy one though and it's the most packed site I've ever been to. Personally, not my cup of tea and I would have found a quieter site if I had known it would have been like that. Had no problems with the other campers, I just personally prefer a different atmosphere, but that's just me. Surprisingly, it was really very quiet during the night.

Staff were all friendly and helpful.
