Stayed here for 5 nights as our son was getting married in Falmouth. This is a lovely site, absolutely immaculate grounds as are the toilet/shower block. The owners are really friendly and couldn't do enough to help. The pitches are huge and the views stunning. It is about 2 miles into Falmouth itself although it isn't ideal to walk as there is a lack of footpaths in areas.
All in all we had a really enjoyable stay and would definitely return!
Just spent 2 weeks at this campsite and had a fantastic time. The fees were very reasonable and the site was very quiet with a very warm helpful and friendly welcome from Andrew, the owner. The pitches were a generous size allowing for our car, caravan, awning, annex and kayaks and still gave us room to sit out with a barbeque and enjoy the beautiful country views. Plenty of space to execise the dog in the adjacent allocated field too. There was a new toilet block which was kept clean and restocked daily. The showers were free and hot water always available. Only 2 showers, which did mean a bit of a queue at times, but there was never that long a wait as the site is not too big. There was only 1 washing machine on site which took one and a half hours for a load, so was always busy and difficult to find free unless you stayed in during the day to do the washing. There were no facilities on site specifically for children, but plenty of room for them to safely run about and play.
The site is close to Falmouth with easy access to the town, beaches and countryside. This is a beautiful, quiet site that I would certainly recommend and will definitely use again when I visit Falmouth next time.
Visited Menehay Touring Park at half term with the kids and had a great time. Friendly welcome from this family run campsite, nothing was too much trouble. The campsite is situated near to Falmouth town centre (closest campsite to the town!). Bus stop on site but only 25 min walk and £5 for a taxi. Lovely views of the countryside, I particularly liked the view of the bay, lighthouse and castle. Ample facilities for amount of pitches, and kept nice and clean. The owners obviously take pride it keeping it looking nice, nice hanging baskets and grass cut regularly. There's no play area for kids but we knew this and there's plenty of space for the kids to enjoy them selves and waste some energy. 2 nice pubs and a convenience shop very near by, and great walks in all directions. We paid £15 per night, and that included 2 dogs, awning and electric. Great value!
This site was easy to find, however, access in and out was across a small lane so very awkward, tight and poor visibility. The owners were friendly and greeted us on arrival. We had booked this site requesting hard standing, so we were a little disappointed when they allocated us a grass pitch but we were lucky and had a dry week otherwise we would have had problems. The site was busy so we did not get any nice views just a hedge behind and other people all around. The facilities were clean but I had to wait for a shower. The lights were on a very short timer, so when in the shower the lights went off and you were left in complete darkness. We were told it was a short walk into Falmouth town centre. It took 30 minutes up and down steep hills with a 6 year old and 45 minutes coming back, not something we would repeat! We did not find this site child friendly, more suitable for adults only.
Just return from a lovely 2 weeks in Falmouth. Lovely small campsite with about 35 large pitches and a friendly welcome. Modern shower block with plenty of high pressure hot water. Showering was a pleasure! Great value at £18 per night, significantly less than nearby campsites. Closest campsite to Falmouth town centre, took us no more than 25-30 to walk to the centre. There's a bus stop outside, and a taxi at night was less than a fiver! (If you're not keen on hills!) The nearest beach (Swan Pool) is a 15 min walk on mainly footpaths. The site had great access and was easy to find. The location meant you could just leave the car at the site and enjoy Falmouth, which is a lovely place with lots to do. We hired a boat and went up the river Fal, went to the castle, and walked all the near by coastal paths. (Plenty of lovely pubs to take a rest). Falmouth is also a great place to visit other places in Cornwall, we went St Ives, Lizard, Truro, Porthteath, all lovely and not too far away. All in all great time, definitely will go back, highly recommended!
When we arrived at the site we were made very welcome by the owners parents who were looking after the site while they were away. The pitches were a really good size although the hard standing were very unlevel. The toilet/shower blocks were very modern, however there was a timed light which went out far too quickly and left you in the dark. The hot water was far too fierce on the sinks and as there were no plugs it was almost impossible to have a wash there. When we arrived the tumble dryer was out of order and was still out of order when we left two weeks later. The toilets and showers could do with an early morning clean so that when visitors went there first thing to shower they were not met with the night before mud and grass. There could have been another bin as they were usually full and you would struggle to dispose of your rubbish. This camp site is obviously work in progress and I am sure that with a few bits of attention to detail will eventually be excellent. A lot of hard work has gone into it. It is ideally situated for visiting different places in Cornwall and we would definitely use it again. I did think that £18 per night was quite expensive in view of the basic facilities even though it was high season.
We booked this site at short notice because we needed to be in and around Penryn and Falmouth for a few days and it could not have been more conveniently located. There's an hourly bus service from the site entrance - the timetable is a bit confusing until you realise its a circular route. Access into the site is commodious, but the visibility at the exit point was zero - fortunately it's onto a lightly used lane.
The proprietors were very cheery and helpful, making special arrangements for us to arrive late. We were directed to a level, grass pitch in a field with plenty of taps and EHU points - there are some hardstandings, too. Great views to the south-west but, as the location is elevated, be prepared for it to get breezy. We did value the kiddy-free environment; despite the proximity of Falmouth the site was particularly quiet.
There's a newish facilities block but it's only adequate - just 2 showers in the gents, both of which did not so much flow as dribble, but at least they were warm. Just the one washing up/laundry sink which was well used with queueing even though the site was less than half full. Still, that way you get to chat to fellow campers. There's a washing machine (£3/load) and a tumble drier, though the drier was out of use when we visited. No wi-fi, but there's a phone mast on the site - calls and data on O2 and Voda were brilliant.
No immediately obvious shops nearby - there's a shopping parade on the way into Falmouth a bit over half a mile away which includes a (not brilliant) chippy. Huge Asda on the Falmouth side of Penryn, about 2 miles away. Didn't try the pub near the site, but it's only a short walk.
We paid £18/night, the peak summer rate, which we thought slightly dear considering the limited facilities block (even for Cornwall) but the pricing structure no doubt reflects the holiday period. If we need to revisit to the area, we'll not hesitate to go there again.
What a lovely site. Owner very friendly and very helpful - nothing was too much trouble.
Pitch was of a good size giving us plenty of room. Toilet blocks were fairly new and of a good standard, including disabled amenities which my husband used.
We got the bus into Falmouth from the campsite which was handy.
The only thing that could improve this site is perhaps another wash-up sink in busy periods, but then again, you're on holiday so what's the rush?!
Nice location for Falmouth. Simple yet nice family run site. Great sized pitches. Nice level pitches. Lovely sunset over the fields towards the end of the night. Easy to find on the sat nav. Warden/owner was v friendly and helpful. Good value for money. We stayed just outside half term and there were only a couple of other campers on site, making it v peaceful. Fantastic shower blocks. Lots of showers/toilets and needed a code to get into them, as well as the washing area, making it v safe.
Bus to Falmouth stops just outside site, although we drove in. 5mins drive.
Great site, Will stay again
