We are 2 adults and a 13 year old son, plus 2 large dogs.
This was our first visit to Trewethett, parked up outside, walked round site with map showing available pitches, I stayed at our chosen pitch, hubby brought the caravan.
Most pitches have a fantastic sea view, pitches are mainly level gravel, plenty of space. Toilet/showers are fabulous, heated and clean, spacious too. Can be a bit blowy on the cliff edge, need your storm straps on the awning, ground is very hard, broke our mallet trying to peg down!
The walk to the beach is not for the faint hearted, very steep, narrow path, first down past a river, up again, then down a not marked track to the beach. Note there is no beach when the tide is in. The last part of the track is down slate rocks and the path runs out to a rope! Not at all suitable for our two big dogs, or little children or unfit adults.
The better beach is the next one, a short drive, park in a field and a walk down a steep path to Bossiney Haven, again this disappears at high tide.
Trebarwith Strand is the most accessible beach, just past Tintagel, fab food in The Port William too, take dogs inside there.
Back to the site, the cliff path towards Boscastle has styles, so not suitable for big dogs.
Site has useful little shop selling amongst other things, cream teas - yum. There are a couple of small food stores in Tintagel with a cash point.
We had no phone reception on site, we are T/mobile.
Nice pub in Boscastle, The Cobweb, good food, family room, dogs allowed inside, car park opposite is free after 6pm.
Padstow is only half an hour drive away, go early though, otherwise no where to park. Looe is about an hour away, very quaint town that is, lots of history, excellent for crabbing as the tide comes in.
Would not recommend area if you have very small children, too rocky, sea bit rough, no playgrounds. Good for surfing. Some local roads are so narrow though, can get a bit hairy.
Lots of wildlife about, incl the resident family of Adders on site, clearly marked!
This campsite was quite difficult to find. Had a few problems when we arrived as we were informed that we did not have a booking but having produced a a booking form and reference it was grudingly acknowledged that we did have a booking.
I did not find the staff very helpful or friendly.
The shop is very small with limited supplies.
The pitches were not very well marked and where we were located the closest toilets and showers were a portable cabin (but were nice).
The view from our pitch was spectacular. However, not all pitches have a sea view, so do check before booking if this is important to you.
Tintagel and Boscastle are both fantastic places to visit about 4 miles either way.
No pubs or shops within walking distance.
The view would be the only reason I would go back to this site.
When we first arrived at this site we were told to leave our car and go on foot to look for a pitch as we wouldn't be able to turn around with the caravan on. In the caravan club book it says no arrivals before 12 noon, we got there at 12-05 and the place was packed and judging by the people who were setting up many had arrived before then.
We found a grass pitch up near the tent field as there were no hard standing left but the views we had were stunning. We put our awning up but had to take it down the next day as the wind was really bad even though the weather was really hot.
The toilet block was really nice usual cc standards but near us we had portable cabins for the toilets and showers which I thought a bit dull and dismal certainly not cc standard. The wardens were pleasant and the reception had a stock of essentials.
The walk to the beach takes about 45 mins. Only problem was anytime you went out it was quite a long drive before you got anywhere. Make sure you follow directions in cc book and don't use sat nav as some of the roads are so narrow you will probably get stuck with your caravan.
Always attempt to fit a visit to this campsite in my yearly pilgrimage to Cornwall, the seaview is perfection and is equally matched by the best sunsets I've ever seen.
The showers/toilets are well maintained although the convenience of the users isn't a priority when it comes to closing them for cleaning - no time to take it easy in the mornings if you want a shower before 'lock down'.
The tents are situated on the edge of the site allowing a perfect view of the sea and coastal path which is definitely a bonus although you need to brace yourself when the winds come blowing.
This isn't a cheap site if you're not a member of the caravan and camping club so won't stay for more than a couple of nights on principle.
Stayed for two nights wish it could have been longer but had to move on as site was fully booked views stunning. Toilet and shower blocks cleaned to the highest standard.
Small shop sold all we required at reasonable prices. All the staff we met were polite and helpful and always on the go. Got home and luckily got a pitch for a whole week this time in august.
Set within four acres of woodland with spectacular countryside views, this site offers the perfect caravanning and camping experience for all ages. Grass or hardstanding pitches with optional electric. Plenty of space for the kids to play football or fly a kite while you sit back and relax. Facilities include toilets, free hot showers, baby washroom, ice pack freezing, dishwashing area, laundry and free WiFi. Secure dog run for four-legged friends, and campfires are allowed.
Shops, takeaway, pubs, post office, and a dispensing surgery are all in the village of St. Stephen. Just a short journey in the car, you are at some of Cornwall's best treasures, including the Eden Project. Four miles from St. Austell and 12 miles from the wide sweeping beaches of the north coast. This family-friendly site is an excellent base for your Cornish break. Find out more here
The views out to sea from the majority of pitches are breathtaking. We were able to sit in our van of an evening & watch the sunset over the sea - fantastic!
The only issue with the closeness to the coast is that weather can change quickly & winds are strong when it does. As a precaution those with awnings may want to remember to put a storm strap on, just for peace of mind.
There is good toilet block on site - modern & clean, it also has laundry & washing up facilities.
The small site shop stocks a surprisingly good range of items which should see you right if you forget something. There's an information room with leaflets about most of Cornwalls things to see, as well as details of things like local places to eat out / take away.
All staff we encountered were pleasant & helpful.
There was a good children's playing field that our children took advantage of to play football in.
Dog walking along the cliff top path was superb - you can walk to Boscastle or Tintagel along these paths.
For those of you interested in Mobile signal - we were able to pick up full signal on both O2 & Three networks. More than we can at home!
Site also has wireless internet available - though it doesn't cover the whole site. Cost was about £5 an hour.
Make sure you follow the caravan club directions to this site as there are numerous smaller roads that sat navs would rather you use!
Once there the views are terrific.But the wind is quite strong even when the sun is shining. Make sure you have the camera handy at sunset as you will want to capture the brilliant colours. As has been said previously a clean well run site and the wardens are quite happy for you to change pitch if one with a better view becomes vacant during your stay.
Tintagel is very close and visits to Boscastle and Port Isaac are musts (Best avoid the beach car park at Port Isaac if you are of a nervous disposition as the village roads are extremely narrow and bendy)
Fabulous site which is really well equipped and cared-for. We ended up staying three nights and enjoyed the superb sunsets from our clifftop pitch.
Small on-site shop with basics, excellent shower and toilet facilities which can't be faulted. Also at least 2 motorhome service points made it really easy to empty and fill up water.
Bus stop at top of drive with highly interesting bus ride into Boscastle and Bude and back - drivers obviously do this run often!
Shame we didn't discover a pub/cafe within walking distance. Would be happy to return.
Stayed second week of the half term holidays. Narrow roads and very bendy / hilly so take it easy. Site 2 miles from Tintagel and 2 miles from Boscastle - easily spotted from the road.
Spectacular views - we had beautiful weather but would be very exposed if rainy / windy. The facilities are clean to a very high standard - small play-park for the kids - not a lot else for them, but our two boys loved the coast path and exploring.
The location is excellent for visiting local villages and fishing ports like Padstow, Bude - even drove over to Looe on the south coast (55 mins), The wardens were very friendly and helpful - the on site reception had the essentials if you are caught short of anything.If you like waling / hiking this is definitely the site for you.
