 We're delighted to advise that this campsite has reopened their tenting and touring facilities and is once again taking bookings for tent, caravan, and motorhome pitches.

The owners of this site have advised that they no longer offer any touring caravan, motorhome or tent pitches. They now have solely seasonal pitches and glamping cabins to hire.

The site is a perfect base for exploring Cornwall. Tent pitch was a good size and fairly level.
Staff were friendly and lots to do around the site - swimming pool, small farm where kids can pet the animals, games room, zip wire, play ground and fishing for the husband.
Only gripe was the toilet block - but this was more down to inconsiderate campers more than the camp owners.
Toilet block was clean but as they are wet rooms it was difficult to get dressed after a shower without getting clothes wet.
I would definitely stay here again - great camp site in a beautiful area with lots of supermarkets/ shops nearby.
Small shop on site reasonably priced but basic

4 adults 4 children aged between 7 and 12 yrs old, all the kids loved the site,
We went out most days because it's a great base to see the sites and fab beaches in the area, however when we were on site there was stuff to keep the kids busy, with many families on site they were always other kids of the same age to play with, the pool was a big hit.
There's a little cafe on site, they don't have a big Manu but what they do provide is good quality, especially the pizza's always made fresh with good ingredients.
The showers/toilets could be cleaner as they were only cleaned once a day from what I saw but they weren't the worst I've seen either.
Our motorhome pitch was not on the level but we took the wedges so that wasn't a big issue,
All in all we enjoyed it and would go back again.

Nice site
Friendly staff
Great base for seeing Devon
Water at every caravan so you don't have to keep going to a tap miles away.
Left our dogs in the kennels and had a day horse riding and quad biking.

This is our second visit to this site. Great facilities, pool is very well managed and a good play park for the kids. Great location for some lovely beaches and Eden Project.
It's not the cheapest site we've stayed on but it is the summer holidays and they managed to fit us in with two pitches next to each other at relatively short notice.
We were disappointed at the new toilet block, sink toilets and shower all in one cubicle but this meant everything got wet and dirty. We didn't see them being cleaned at all the weekend we were there.
Only other negative was the length of the grass on the pitches, it was very long and we saw no cutting going on whilst we were there. Overall though still a lovely site.

We have not long returned from our week long stay at Meadow Lakes. We used to come to this site as a family when I was a child when it was called Trencreek. It is a very different place to then. The old barn is gone and the animals are now all 'safely' in cages instead of roaming free as they used to.
There are much fewer of them now too. Despite this, we had an enjoyable week there, although this was a lot to do with the seeing family. We stayed in a tent in the unnamed field below primrose field. There are no non-electric pitches up a hill. Our pitch was nice and flat, but very near the lakes and no wind, so we were midged to death every sunset.
This was a shame as one of the joys of camping, is sitting out in the last of the evening light enjoying the atmosphere, but we had to retreat inside rapidly. If the site had been full, the pitches were were not accurately spaced.
The shower facilities in primrose field were very good and you got fit walking up and down the hill to go to them! Free, plenty of push button hot water, although non-adjustable temperature. The thing that perplexed us was a real shortage of washing up facilities. We found a couple of sinks in the laundry, but that was a long trek and not obviously washing up as opposed to washing clothes.
The kids enjoyed the playgrounds, but again they were a nearly 10 min walk from our field. The play barn is a good idea.
They've improved the roads since the old days so no driving around in muddy fields.
There are a few essentials missing for campers like the washing up. It would be nice to be able to charge phones or freeze ice packs. We didn't find either.
The pool is limited to 25 every hour, which works well, but fills up quickly.
The caravans and lodges seemed to dominate the site where we were and we did not get the usual 'camping spirit' when other people were sitting out or their kids playing.
We stayed with family who didn't camp, so the accommodation options are a boon. We discussed, would we come back again and on the whole I would, but the midges really spoilt it for us.
Given there are no un-sheltered (to get a bit of breeze) non-electric pitches away from the lakes, I would say probably not, which is a shame as the vicinity in Cornwall is ideal for many beaches, shops, towns and all that you could require from a visit to Cornwall, although you have to drive to everything.

Bit like staying at a girls High School. Don't do this don't do that and don`t walk about with no shoes. We went primarily for my husband`s fishing but had also a pool for me to swim while he was occupied.
BUT oh no! as it was quiet and I was the only one at that time who wanted a swim I was refused entry, they cited insurance reasons, could they not have a waver to sign for a fully fit able adult. It spoilt my holiday.
The toilets and showers were fine cleaners in nearly all day overkill, maybe they should clean in morning and put life guard on in afternoon for campers. Have not got priorities right.

We arrived on a lovely day, the staff were very helpful and cheerful. The little shop had a good supply of goods. Also there was an area at the back of the shop that had all the brochures for visiting local areas. The toilet and showers were very clean but they were down a slope, which, I as a disabled walker was unable to venture down unless I had someone with me.
The site was very clean, there weren't many units but it was early in the season.
The only thing that was disappointing was that the swimming pool was closed so was the little cafe, they didn't open till whit bank holiday.
Being we were quite away from anywhere it would have been nice to have had the Cafe open.

Had a fantastic time.
Staff really helpful. The kid's loved the animals especially the goats. Lots of space for kids to play and run around.
Could have more outside play activities. But not busy so adequate
Small shop had emergency supplies.
Pool tired but adequate and not busy.
Nice and close to st austell but far enough out to be in nice countryside
