Had a warm welcome from the lady in reception and given a map of the site, a good leaflet about the area and even a leaflet on how they expect you to pitch your unit and park your car!
The pitch was a good size and the site was exceptionally well maintained, every day whatever the weather they were out cutting grass, filling in pot holes, painting etc.
The pitch we had was large, very slightly sloping but nothing that ramps could deal with, and with a pleasant view.
All the facilities were to a high standard and always clean, the only let down were the silly push button showers that only lasted a few second before needing to be pushed again. The on site shop had all the basics, must admit I didn't notice if things were expensive or not.
The walk to Padstow is nice through 4 cornfields and over 3 stiles, I would have thought not suitable for pushchairs as the ground is rough and muddy in places.
Padstow is lovely, with plenty of places to eat and drink, from the cheap to the expensive. One thing I would recommend is taking your bike or hiring one and riding along the Camel train, such a nice way to spend a day.
A word of warning, the site is on top of a hill over looking the estuary and is exposed, the wind was strong some days when we were there, blowing our table across the field.
Overall a good clean, well maintained site and I would be happy to return.
A nicely laid out site just a mile from Padstow's restaurants and various beautiful beaches. There are plenty of shrubs and well kept grass.
Most pitches have views and are backed against a hedge which offers a limited amount of shelter up here on top of the hill. When the wind blows here, you know it. Two tent poles snapped during the first three days. We had a very large pitch with EHU and had plenty of room. Pitches are flat for the most part.
The site is on farmland and so you hear cows and cockerels. It is a myth that cockerels only crow when the sun comes up. They crow when it is still pitch black at 4am!
The facilities were clean and sufficient for the number of people on site at the time. One of the shower blocks has loo, shower and washbasins in the same room and there are also private washrooms which are shared between three pitches - these are actually in the shower blocks and not sited between three pitches.
The reception block from the outside is rather plain and some hanging baskets would make it more welcoming.
The shop is in the reception area and sells basic essentials, but no fresh produce at all apart from milk. We found the prices for some items ridiculously high - £1 for a can of coke. Tesco is a pleasant walk away across fields (during daylight) or a drive - there is no pavement on the roadside and it can be very busy.
The walk down (and up again) to Padstow is not for the fainthearted - it is a very long, steep hill. Once in Padstow marvel at the queues at Rick Stein's Fish and Chips. Whatever your budget, clever Mr Stein caters for everyone. We ate at his cafe and his pub, The Cornish Arms in nearby St Merryn - it does get very crowded but the food is good and no more expensive than other pubs.
Back to the campsite, although there is a small play area (adventure playground style) and a family washroom, I wouldn't say this was a site for children unless you are using it as just a base.
We very much enjoyed our time here; the only drawback that may stop us going back is that it can be such a windy site.
A warm welcome on arrival the map of the site and pack giving lots of really great info everything from shop opening times to taxi numbers, probably the best I've seen yet.
The site was very busy when we stopped but facilities seemed just about able to cope, three very different blocks of showers and loo's varying in age, possibly could have been cleaned a bit more often.
Our pitch unfortunately overlooked a pile of rubble on the track down to the farm, bit disappointing as every other spot seemed to have wonderful views.
Nice walk over the fields into Padtow, fab views across the countryside!
We spent two weeks here during July and August. On arrival we were greeted at reception and handed the welcome pack. Pitches are already allocated so no choice!
We had booked a deluxe pitch which was of a generous size and included a shared water tap. This was supposed to be shared with the pitch next to us but in reality other pitches around us used it as well which could be annoying when water was required at 11pm.
The location of the site is perfect and well situated for all the stunning nearby beaches and amenities.
We found the facilities on site to be adequate at best. There were not really enough showers and toilets for the size of the site and these were often dirty and muddy.
The showers, as has been mentioned before on here, are of the push button type as are all the taps. This makes filling the sink for washing up frustrating as did the lack of plugs for the sinks! The access road to the site is pot-holed and scruffy and the pitches although well spaced side to side, are close together back to back.
We found the site to be noisy at night with several large groups being noisy well into the night. There did not seem to be any warden presence during the evenings and often it did not fall quiet until around midnight (in spite of claims to have a policy of 'no noise after 10pm'). When we raised this with the owners they were not very helpful and did not seem particularly interested.
This has the potential to be an outstanding site to stay at but is let down by a lack of attention to detail. Overall we would probably stay here again due to the excellent location but we endured rather than enjoyed the site.
The staff at this family run site were very friendly and helpful.
The site was lovely and very well kept, and the facilities were very clean. They have family bathrooms with a shower, basin and toilet which is much appreciated when you are camping with young children. There is a useful shop in the reception area.
It was a lovely walk through the fields into Padstow and to a handy Tesco store. The Camel Trail offers a good level bike ride with children.
We had a level hard standing and the pitch was huge. We stayed during the May half term and it didn't seem busy, mainly due to the pitches being so large and well spaced out.
On arrival at the site we were given a useful map of the site, which also gave lots of local information and places to eat. We had a meal at The Basement restaurant in Padstow which was excellent. It also gave info on local beaches and said which beaches were dog friendly which we found really helpful as it's always hard finding out which beaches you can take the dog to, until you get there.
An excellent site. We enjoyed it so much we've booked to go back in July.
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
After reading the previous reviews I must say we're slightly disappointed in this site. We had a pleasant and informative welcome with a good information sheet
We had a deluxe pitch which was very large and nice. We had a look in all 3 shower blocks and they all ranged in cleanliness and quality! The better ones being behind the reception block but even those did smell musty.
The site could be a little better maintained i.E overgrown grass, broken tarmac and the storage area which you go through on the path to Padstow/Tesco is rather scruffy. The path in place is uneven so we would recommend good walking boots
The site was quiet but we didn’t have many vans/children around us.
Padstow lovely as always and the cycle trail was great
We have been to better and worse sites than this and would give it 6/10
We have visited several times and find this a pleasant and not over-commercialised site.
It has very good toilet/shower facilities with all-in cubicles which we like. Site quite exposed but not unpleasantly so.
Site walkable across footpaths to town, muddy in places but OK. We used the sloping grass sites with views until stopped last time we booked as the van Compass 505 was considered too long. Odd and in the end we went elsewhere.
Staff friendly. Nevertheless it is a good clean site which I recommend and we will use again.
We found this camp site excellent, very good pitches, good facilities and we found the shower block very clean, although there is one older block of showers which probably does need updating.
Very helpful staff, the shop does have the basic supplies you may need but Tescos is just a short journey away for all other groceries etc.
Padstow is just a mile away and can be walked too
Although do take a torch at night time.
Plenty of other attractions in the area and great beaches if you get the weather.
As per other reviews, you arrive to a warm welcome and a very useful leaflet with a detailed diagram of the campsite itself and details of local attractions etc.
The site is easy to locate from the road due to being well sign posted. The site location itself is excellent for Padstow and is a great place to visit (Rick Stein's fish and chips recommended).
The pitches are well spaced and there is plenty of room, the shower / toilet blocks are large and as a result never had to queue, even on a busy Bank Holiday weekend.
The family room showers did look good and the remaining blocks were clean but I would say no better or no worse than anywhere else I have stayed (perhaps I have been lucky!).
The shower water only lasted for a few seconds at a time and you had to keep pressing for more, which then took another of couple of seconds to get going. Personally, I'd rather pay a nominal fee to ensure even just a couple of minutes of uninterrupted showering.
Finally, I do feel the site is perhaps not particularly suitable for tents, due to being at the top of a hill, the (cross) winds were a problem. We cut our stay short and so did others, due to the continual battering of the tent (which also made it difficult to sleep at night).
We were welcomed at Padstow Touring Park with a very warm welcome and were given a really good leaflet containing on site information and things to do within the immediate area which included walks and bus times etc which I thought was quite impressive.
The site itself is really well laid out with plenty of room between pitches and the facilities are top notch! A walk across the field takes you to Padstow with a Tesco Supermarket halfway. Unfortunately it’s uphill on the way back so we caught the bus.
Recommendations on food and drink, take the ferry across to Rock and pop in the Rock Inn. The food was awesome and you can sit on a balcony overlooking the estuary.
If cycling on the Camel Trail, go down as far as Bodmin to the Borough Arms which does the most amazing Carvery. Trouble is you have to cycle back on a full stomach but well worth it. We also tried Rick Steins Fish & Chips which were nice, something you just have to try.
All in all a great stay in Padstow and can’t wait to return.
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
We usually come to this site a couple of times a year with some friends and their children who use a tent. We camp next to each other with a gazebo in between so that we can all eat together or collapse together after a long walk!
It is a lovely site that is beautifully kept, with some of the best facilities we've seen on a site. The toilets and showers are spotless and the kids always have a great time on the play park. The pitches are large so you have a great feeling of space around you.
It is a very easy walk along the edge of a couple of fields into Padstow where you can pick up the Camel trail or walk along the beach. If you fancy going further afield you can get the bus from Padstow and get dropped outside the site on the way back, handy if you stop for lunch and a beer!
All in all a really great site, we've already booked to go back.
We've just come back from a lovely long weekend here and thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Toilets and showers were excellent - being low season only one block was heated which had individual shower rooms (with sink and toilet in too) - these rooms were just lovely and on par with my bathroom at home!
A lovely play park on site (although I imagine it could get very busy in peak season as not that big).
Although we didn't do any walking, there were walks from the site and lots of info on nearby beaches including whether they were lifeguarded and dog friendly.
All in all a fantastic site which we will certainly return to.
This is one the best run sites that it has been my good luck to visit.
Having said that, it is not especially cheap but one has to consider the location and its nearness to Padstow.
The showers/WCs were immaculate: No other word does them justice.
The site has number plate recognition and that certainly helps with accessing the site if you wish to go out and return; no daft codes to forget or cards to lose.
We received a pleasant welcome and booking in was handled both smoothly and professionally.
Fully endorse the excellent reviews of this site, my wife and I plus our 3 year old girl had a lovely two weeks here and would happily have stayed longer if we could!
An excellent base for the surrounding beaches and countryside. The toilet blocks were the cleanest I have ever experienced. The pitches themselves are excellent; we had never had an electric hook up before but were delighted with it, (and the water tap right on each pitch!) Our daughter loved the play area and it certainly was the social centre for the (mostly) lovely children on the site!
We must say, despite being full of families, that this is the quietest site we have ever stayed at - all quiet by 10.30 most nights. There are only small lights around the site so the star gazing was amazing - we had brilliant views of a meteor shower one night!
We loved the walk into Padstow, though wouldn't recommend a night time return walk with a push chair! Tescos was very convenient (too convenient in fact, they made a fortune off us!)
Lots of lovely pubs in Padstow but obviously you have to walk there first.
Can't think of anything negative to say - but if absolutely forced, the showers lasted about twenty seconds and there was a delay before it would work when pressed again(though they were a good temperature, free, with plenty of space, so still can't really complain!) Would warmly recommend to families, especially if it is your first time for a 'longer' stay.
This Is a very nice Campsite,The toilet blocks are Always spotless,so are the showers & washup areas.
There are some nice views from the higher part of the site.
We had a Delux pitch,which was no different to a std pitch but for the close water tap!
Very well run site,can be noisy,there is a 10pm noise limit,we had some Caravanners very noisy till 11.45pm till told to stop ! Twice !
Would like to see Tents in one part and Caravans in another part,there doors shutting & people walking about can be heard till late.
Over all very nice site.
