Just had 8 nights stay at Caradon. The other reviews say it all. It is a fantastic place to stay. It is kept immaculate, the facilities are very clean and the pitches a good size. The staff are friendly and helpful, the shop sells all your essentials and will order newspapers for you, the bar was great for an evening drink. The local spar supermarket up the road in Pelynt stocks everything you could need and is very reasonably priced. The local bus stops regularly at the site and makes it easy to get to Looe and Polperro. Brilliant place - will definitely be back.
3 nights in our MH at this lovely site which has easy access, only the very last bit of lane is narrow but short & straight so can see any oncoming traffic, lovely flat pitches, we were against the hedge to the left of the field which did lose the sun in the evening, central or right have a better aspect. Clean shower facilities that I found a little dim, the lights were motion activated but it didn't work the evening I took a shower so continued the ablutions in semi darkness & went over at an earlier time from then on. It was nice to have a meal on site & leave the dogs in the MH, lovely steak alfresco at the bar area. Free wifi is a boon as the rest of our holiday at other sites we had to pay & it soon mounts up, not cheap! Situated halfway between Looe & Polperro we did both walks, around 3 miles - Looe is through the woods then follow the estuary along to Looe and Hannafore, Polperro was down to the beach then follow the SW coastpath. The only negative for us personally was no dog exercise area on site, you had to use the narrow lanes outside the site which was a bit hairy when traffic came and were forced into the hedgerow, got nettle stung a few times, for night visits the dogs were allowed to use a small grass area opposite reception. Like other sites we then visited that had an enclosed dog field, if Caradon ever had the opportunity with surrounding land to provide this facility then this site could so easily become a favourite of ours - if you haven't got dogs to consider then you wont go far wrong with this site run by a very helpful couple
I think I read another review on this campsite wishing they didn't have to tell anybody else about it as it's a real gem, they were right! It's in a perfect location for exploring the coast, some roads on approach a little narrow for larger units so PLEASE take the owners directions in mind as they save some hairy moments and buffeted wing mirrors. Pleasant walks to either Looe or Polperro from your doorstep, with a great bus service to both or beyond. The campsite itself is just outside of the village of Pelynt, which has a Spar shop, garage and a pub called the Jubilee - basic edible food and grumpy staff for inflated prices. Caradon itself has a bar serving Cornish Korev lager and Tribute ale as well as great value, well cooked food with tasty and plentiful portions. The steak and (Tribute) ale pie is outstanding. We found the bar very friendly and the best place to get an idea of the local area, with everybody happy and chatty. The facilities were always spotless and well serviced, with green policies in place such as solar heated showers (perfect and free to use with no daft push buttons) and natural soaps and tissues. There was a good area for chemical waste with its own flush and tap, and great access to a number of grey water disposals. The washing up sinks are along the outside of the showers so you can earwig while you get clean! Never queued once for anything at all. Pitches are a great size, and level too, and the grass - with integra hard standings under - well cut and tidy. The local produce on sale in the small site shop is good, but popular, so get in quick! We went out of school holiday time so midweek it was quiet, but when families visited at the weekend it did get a little bit noisier with the odd family not respecting personal space. The bar had a club room attached with table tennis, pool table and a TV with game console to keep the kids happy while mum and dad had a drink I the adults only bar. We met some really nice people, and the atmosphere on the whole site, bar and everything led to a very relaxing and enjoyable break. We will definitely go back, just to check if the Tribute is still as good. Brilliant!
We have just returned from a lovely stay at Camping Caradon.
The owners could not have been more helpful and the site is excellently maintained. We would definitely stay again. The bus service was very frequent and we had a lovely day at Talland Bay in the rock pools and the cafe is lovely here.
We had an excellent 4 days over the New Year Period, The New year party was a great success, the food was very good and plenty of it, The music was very good and firework display was great.
The company was good The owners very friendly and helpful.
Facilities. Showers were hot, toilets plenty of them and all very clean. Bus stop on site
No problems with this site whatsoever, we hope to return next year. Thankyou very much for a lovely stay Lou and Jill
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
What a wonderful site. From the first time you get on site the owners make you most at home. The site is set in a good position. The toilets & showers are clean at all times, showers have plenty of hot water. The bar is a very friendly place with a first class restaurant chef, a wide range on the menu. There is a games room, small shop with most the basics you need, papers can be ordered the daily. All the pitches have 16 amp hook up for elec. Buses for all local areas call in at regular times. The site is maintained at a very high standard. It's a site with very few signs with dos & don'ts. Thank you to the owners.
Having just moved on from this site I wanted to leave a review.
We followed the 'big units' directions. This is the best route in. Wider and safer.
We walked to Polperro from the site through Talland Bay along the coast path. A very nice walk.
We used the buses most days to Polperro, Looe and Plymouth. It gets full though.
The Crumplehorn Mill in Polperro serves a very nice lunch. We had the fish salad.
Pengelly's in Looe is a great fishmonger too.
We used the site bar most nights. Opens. At 7. 30. We ate at the site bar. The wife had gammon and I had the Cajun chicken salad. Both very good value and very good quality.
The site is very nice and good value at £17 per night
We stayed at this site due to the reviews being so good and they are so correct. Initially for a week with 2 adults and 2 children, we ended up staying longer. This is an amazing site, clean showers and toilet block, busy in the morning but quieter in the evening. Hubby said that the men's block was also regularly cleaned and well maintained. The bar and family room is an added bonus and great for families, no children allowed in the bar so those without children can have a quieter drink. The table tennis, pool table and board games were a nice touch also a box of toys for younger children. We did order food that can be eaten in the tent or in the bar/family room and it was freshly cooked and great value for money. The reception stocks camping equipment, toys and basic food items. There is a small play area for the children and with the camp being small and friendly the kids didn't need watching constantly. The staff are the friendliest I have ever met and they made us feel so welcome and were great at showing us where to go in looe. We had pitch 26 and as a previous reviewer stated it does have the sun all day and great to watch the sun going down. Pitches aren't massive but was adequate for an outwell montana 6 + extension, windbreaks and car. Having free wifi was really good and no problem with my mobile phone signal which I have experienced on other sites in Looe. The site is generally quiet but it was bank holiday weekend and had 2 families that wanted to be louder than everyone else. A quick word from Stephen and the site was lovely and quiet again. The whole family would like to recommend this camp site. 10/10. Thank you for a lovely stay and we will be returning.
What a great site, level, clean and well maintained.
The owners are especially helpful, from advising on the best route to use to avoid narrow lanes on the approach, to lending me a spanner, they would be hard put to do more to look after their guests.
The takeaway food offered on the site is also well worth a mention, good value and great quality.
In conclusion, a site we would have no hesitation in using or recommending if we were in that area.
Spent 7 nights here in August after reading good positive reviews. We enjoyed our time here overall, nice clean site which is well looked after. Toilets and showers are clean however there are only 3 showers in men's and ladies which was not quite enough at bank holiday weekend when the site was full, okay the rest of the time. All pitches seem fairly generous and also nice and flat, grass is well maintained. Lots of children enjoying themselves which is great to see and a good atmosphere. Small bar and family room is good to use but only opens at 7. 30pm be better if opened earlier for younger families. Small shop but only basics, spa shop 2 miles away. Looe and polperro great places to visit and only a couple of miles away. There is a bus service which we did not use but could be useful to save on the big parking charges at these places. We would return here as is good value for money
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
Spent 4 nights here on a family break (6 of us) plus my 3yr old grandson. The toilet/showers were one of the cleanest I have ever seen, lovely hot water plus a family/disabled room which was like a wet room, excellent for showering with a 3yr old. The owner and staff were all very friendly and helpful, and the take-a-way food was very good quality. There's even a bar/family room with a TV where you can take your food to eat it, great on an evening when the weather's not good. This is a small, friendly site which is very well run. Would certainly stay there again!
This fairly small and very well kept site is located down a short quiet lane and was itself very quiet when we were there. It has a small shop, a take-away serving a variety of food (evenings only) and a bar with a TV room and games room, which is fairly unusual for a site of this size although the bar did appear to be patronised by locals as well as campers. The manager was very friendly when we arrived and, he was also friendly when he served us in the shop, the bar and when he was doing his chores around the site – clearly being a campsite manager isn’t all meet and greet!
The site has just over 70 level grass pitches all of which are numbered and marked out and all have electric hook-up. The single loop road around the site is tarmac meaning there would be little issue getting to your pitch if things were a little damp underfoot although the pitch itself might be a little soft.
The facilities were very clean during our stay and while the showers were perhaps a little weak, they were hot and all worked fine. I did wonder if this was a result of the various initiatives the site has undertaken to reduce their impact on the environment but, looking at the website, I don’t think low flow showers are listed – nonetheless, this wasn’t really an issue.
We also used the small laundry while we were there which worked well and was reasonably priced.
All in all a really tidy site with friendly staff and lots of facilities for a site of its size. Great for access to Looe and Polperro and we’d certainly return.
Great site, staff very friendly and welcoming, very clean site, especially the toilet block, but do think that another toilet block would be a great idea especially during the busy season. Would definitely recommend to others and if we go back down in the area would use again. The area is fantastic, Looe is lovely and the beach is fantastic. Also a little place along from Looe called Millendreath is a fantastic place to take the kids, lots of rock pools and when the tide is in a great pool appears where the kids can swim and play in dingys safely, there are toilets and a cafe. Polperro is also beautiful and lots of little shops and boat trips. (Would advise any miserable people who do not like to hear the sound of children playing and enjoying themselves to go elsewhere this is not the site for them), We have no children but loved it and it was great to see the kids and families enjoying themselves.
This was our second stay at this site with Stephen and Lene, from 21st July 2013 to 27th July 2013. As last year, we had a fabulous time, nothing was to much trouble from Stephen and his wife. We were welcomed on our arrival. The site is exceptionally well maintained as always and spotless. Since our visit last year, a new food take away service has been introduced, which we found very handy. You can order your food and eat in your unit, or in the bar. The food was very well cooked and presented and was very good value for money. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay, and look forward to the next 12 months flying by, so we can get back to the facilities and holiday we look forward to. Roll on July 2014!
Yet again we had a lovely but all too short stay at this campsite which we have been visiting for a few years now, this time to introduce 4 year old grandson to camping. The site was as always very well kept and the facilities spotless. Found the family room a bonus when showering grandson. A nice touch was the take-away which meant we didn't have to cook or take the car into Looe. Thank you. Hope to come back in September or October.
