Reviewer: Thegreens5 4 reviews from this member

 Fabulous place - we booked late so ended up in the overspill field Brea Vean - which was actually very lucky and it was more spacious than the main site and quite unique in that we could pitch wherever we liked.

You can see the sea from this site but cannot access it. This was OK for us though because with three young children it was easier to park right next to the beach in Sennen Cove - which is only a 5 minute drive.

You can also park in the main campsite and walk down the cliff to the beach if you prefer. Facilities were good - great hot showers and hairdryer.

The staff were very friendly and there was a van that came round in the morning with supplies from the main campsite if you wanted them. Great spot to watch the fireworks at Lands End on a Tuesday and Thursday night.

There is so much to do at this end of Cornwall that despite being there for two weeks we didn't manage to see everything - would definitely go back and would use this site again without hesitation.

 We went in the summer holidays and booked late so were not on the main site but at Brea Vean. In many respects this is a separate campsite being a good mile and half away from the main site. So, you don't get the perks of being able to walk directly to the amazing beach from your tent. You have to drive down (as there is no direct path from Brea Vean) and park at Trevedra, or the shop and cafe (which does good breakfasts).

Saying that it was a lot more spacious where we were (they're pretty packed in at Trevedra) and I liked the atmosphere more. And a van comes up in the morning selling breakfast foods, bread, bacon, eggs, croissants etc. And you can order a paper.

I felt that the facilities were good and clean. Nice free hot showers and hair dryer. They also had a fridge and freezer that everyone can use. Be aware to label your stuff though, especially ice packs.

They also have laundry facilities.

I liked it here and if I was ever to return might prefer to stay at Brea Vean than the main site.

 We stopped at the Brea Vean site, which we were told was not advertised and they were careful regarding who went on this site.

Our experience was mixed, due to varying factors.

The location itself is good, being a mile away from Trevedra, we had our own facilities for showers / toilets / washing up but we could also use those at Trevedra and park to go to the beach.

The facilities themselves were basic and appeared to be cleaned on a regular basis a couple of times a day.

There were no rules for Brea Vean, it was pretty much camp where you wish. On the first night this was fine, there were limited amount of people in the field. Over the course of the following 2-3 days however, we were suddenly surrounded by a Carry On Camping scenario. We went out for the day and come back to another couple of families, who knew each other, boxing our tent in.

The tent behind ours was pretty much touching our guy ropes and there was a couple to the side. We could not park our car at the back or side of the tent.

In my opinion the site wasn't monitored for who it allowed on - as there were groups on there also. There were 4 showers and toilets for each sex and at a couple of points the site was full, meaning there must have been 100 people to 4 toilets. There was a bit of queuing in peak times.

The plus side is that, luckily, the site was quiet at night (with the exception of the chatter we could clearly hear from our close neighbours), but after 10. 30pm it generally became quiet.

If you don't mind camping in close proximity and want something quiet, this site is cheap and could be a good choice. There is ample space for kids in the centre of the field - even when 4 tents had pitched there. Trevedra Farm itself looked very cramped as we walked through.

They could do with installing one rule for Brea Vean - and that is to pitch with at least a car's width away from each other - then we could block out some noise.

Reviewer: Jayner17 1 review from this member

 We stayed for 6 nights, first week of the school summer holidays. Although there were several fields, tents did seem to be crammed in more than at any other site we've been to.

We had a large family tent and were unable to also fit the car within our allocated pitch. Having said that we were in the field closest to the sea and had superb views, when it wasn't misty! Apparently this area is known for it's mists!

Plenty of showers and loos which were clean. Never had to queue. Likewise with washing up areas. Chest freezer for ice blocks, label/bag them wisely as it is full to the brim with ice blocks, which all look the same!

Cafe and shop on site for essentials.

Across two fields and a country lane is the path to the beach. It is steep and a killer on the way back up when carrying all your beach gear. The beach is lovely though, with lifeguards, rockpools at low tide and access to the coast path.

I would probably try a different area of Cornwall next time as when the mist came it lingered for days, but really can't fault this site. Access to a beach is our priority and this certainly ticks this box, even if it is a trek back up.

Reviewer: Louise99202 4 reviews from this member

 This site is in a great location. It was the first time we used a site not exclusive to caravan and camping club.

The site was alright apart from the toilets. There was a lack of cleaning as our stay got longer the toilet block got dirtier. It is hoses through but unfortunately there is little or no other cleaning.

Signs asking people to clean up after themselves would be a good idea here. The sinks were full of hairs, the paper towel and soap dispensers were dirty too. As were the sinks and taps. Constant smell of sanitary wear too. I had to clean a toilet and sink before using.

Also it stated that tents were not allowed in the caravan club field(there were 4). Also swearing children in the next field were not a welcome addition to our stay.

We will visit the location again but not this site as cleanliness put us off

Tregarton Park, Mevagissey

With sea and countryside views, Tregarton Park is ideal for couples or families with younger children, given its relaxed seclusion and proximity to so many of Cornwall's fine safe sandy beaches. Large grass and hardstanding pitches with electric, divided by hedging and shrubs, perfect for tents and tourers. No statics! Superb toilet and shower block with large glass shower cubicles operated by motion sensors with ceiling mounted shower heads, laundry room, baby changing station.

This peaceful park is home to an outdoor heated swimming pool with waiter service, tennis court, adventure playground, outdoor football table, table tennis, pool table, large shop and take away service. FREE WiFi, dog walking meadow. Pentewan Beach is just five minutes away! Find out more here



Date of Visit: June 2011 Unit:  Touring Caravan
Reviewer: Jayarbee 47 reviews from this member

 This site is part Caravan Club, part not, part caravans and part tents. It's easily accessible at the end of the A30.

The staff are very helpful and go out of their way to help you have a good holiday. They let us change our booked pitch for one we liked better. Never any problem if you need help. Nice relaxed atmosphere.

The site is well kept and clean but with some character, not sterile like some. The toilet/shower block is basic but kept extremely clean.

Pitch sizes seemed ok. We fitted caravan, awning and car on ours without trouble.

The site wasn't full but I expect it would be busier in full season.

Nice little cafe/restaurant next to reception and a big field for the kids to run around in. There is a path to the beach, bit of a climb but I'm old and I managed.

However the greatest thing about this site is it's location, unbeatable. Most mornings I was up, showered and sitting outside eating my porridge by 7am looking out across the bay. Beautiful.

Buses run by the gate and a 300 open topped bus does a round trip around the peninsular for £7 which we thought was cheap. We caught the first bus and broke the journey at St. Ives and finished the journey later.

There are walks across the cliffs to Sennen Cove then back along the beach and Cape Cornwall then bus back from St Just. Penzance is just up the road.

I'm quite taken with this site, mainly because it is what I think caravanning/camping is about.

You can even hear the sealions at night.

 Very easy to find site down a narrow lane.

Very friendly staff at reception, which is part shop and part cafeteria. You can get all basic supplies and papers.

Pitches are large and although on grass they are level.

Water is situated in tasteful brick built enclosures.

The cafe has good meals and although service is slow, it is well priced and tasty. The surroundings are clean and light with some easy chairs as well as formal sitting.

The toilets are clean and functional, with free showers and a hairdryer.

The walk to the beach is good if you are able bodied. The beach below the site is dog friendly but the one at Sennen is not. There is a dog walk to the rear of the site which is in a large field.

There are fish and chip shops at Sennen and this is accessible from the site via a footpath or the road, the latter which is very steep.

There is a bus service from Sennen (open top), which goes in a large circuit to Penzance and St Ives. We got the bus to Porthcurno and walked back along the coast path via Lands End. The Minack Theatre is at Porthcurno and is open for performances Mon-Fri.

This is a first rate site, mainly due to the staff, though location helps a lot. We will certainly go again, but probably not in high season.

Reviewer: VWCamper76 4 reviews from this member

 We stayed at this campsite for 2 nights after Easter weekend. The campsite was easy to find and is close to the coastal path. Access to the beach is down a very steep path, it was too steep for me, I turned back and drove to Sennen Cove, which is lovely.

The site is split into several fields, so although it is a fairly big site it didn't feel too big, the toilet/shower block was nice and clean.

We used the on site cafe once for breakfast, the service was very slow but I think this was due to a new member of staff just started at the start of the season, no complaints of the food.

I would stay here again. 


Date of Visit: August 2010 Unit:  Trailer Tent
Reviewer: Its raining again 14 reviews from this member

 We went to this site because our sister in law went often as a child and said how wonderful it was, we now agree with her and will be keen to return.

The site is fairly large, with at least four fields joined together plus an overflow field nearby.

There are three sets of toilet blocks which were cleaned and restocked often. We were in the top field, furthest away from the sea, our toilet block had three ladies loos and showers, plus three loos and two showers for the men. The shower was always lovely and hot when I used it.

Outside of the block but with a bit of cover was the washing up area, the water for this was so hot I had to add cold water as well as using rubber gloves!

There is a well stocked shop that is due to be rebuilt this winter, they even sold hot pasties. Morning and evening, the permanent fish and chip van was open, selling as well as fish and chips, jacket potatoes and hot drinks among other things.

There is no play equipment but there is an empty field for you to use. Bikes are not really allowed, especially around the entrance, this is a working farm. Only one car per pitch, there is a carpark for other cars. All the staff were really friendly, they even put up an updated weather forecast for you in the shop.

However, the best thing for us about this site is the location, we were able to walk through the site, across the road and down a steep footpath to the most amazing beach. This beach is lifeguarded and apart from high tide, is always good for surfing/body boarding. The walk from our tent was about 15 minutes down but quite a bit longer coming back as the steps are really steep.

We walked from 'our' beach to Sennen Cove, a pretty village, also we walked along the cliff path to Lands End about two miles each way. We were not that impressed with Lands End but the views on the way were amazing.

We had surf lessons at Sennen, our two older boys both standing up on their first lesson, I however will never be a surfer!

We drove to St. Just, a lovely inland village with a co-op and various local shops, including a fab cafe called Tegan Keg.

Everyone on this site seems just so relaxed, no silly rules about whether you can put up a washing line etc and when my brother and partner joined us for a few days, they were allowed to pitch their pup tent on our pitch. It was really interesting seeing other peoples tents, we even watched a yurt being built. This is a site where everyone is welcome.

The site is quite exposed as it is above and near the sea, but pitch your tent carefully and you should be fine!

A really good site to which I look forward to returning to.

Reviewer: Kim Stock 6 reviews from this member

 A lovely set back off the road down a surfaced track campsite and within only 150yds to beach. A real gem. You can book in advance too.

Campsite is on a cow farm consisting of several fields for which some are for tourers and tents.

Theres direct view of sea from campsite in Gwenver field and others of the sunsets into sea too.

Friendly staff at reception where there's a shop and cafe/community room in evening for campers. Sometimes hold fates for local causes.

Takeaway van open daily.

Showers are well used and warm, toilets in each area are cleaned daily.

Pitches are reasonable size some EHU and some basic non-EHU.

Plenty of walks nearby plus the novelty of waking and seeing the animals when having breakfast.
