Date of Visit: September 2026 Unit:  Touring Caravan
Nights stayed: 10 Travelling as:  Retired couple
Reviewer: Lindilou2013 54 reviews from this member

 The shop remains but there is no cafe there as mentioned in older reviews.

A very pleasant site to stay at. Large pitches, fairly peaceful (tent dwellers with large loud TVs are not peaceful) nice area of countryside. Well maintained. Water available at the pitch.

Facilities are kept spotlessly clean and were a pleasure to use.

Didn't see a member of staff for the whole time we were there! This is why I can't really rate customer service. Sorry.

Security barriers were left permanently open the whole time we were there!

There are quite a lot of seasonal pitches taken up and those with dogs appear to think that it is there right to allow their dogs to be off lead. As a result there were a couple of instances where dogs had left their business on the site. Unpleasant and unnecessary.

When pitching on a grass pitch be aware of any dips in the ground if erecting an awning. You may end up with a large puddle if it rains heavily.

I would recommend despite the dog owners and would return. It's in a good spot for cycling the whole of the Penwith Peninsula! Great spot for Stone Circle Bothering too!

Reviewer: Georga 1 review from this member

 Adult only site which was excellent, very quiet. Most people had well behaved dogs with no problems at all.

The pitches were large and well spaced between lush hedgerows and beautiful hydrangea bushes. Our serviced tent pitch had its own water and power supply.

The toilets and showers were very new and probably the best we have used.

The site is close to Sennen Cove and Lands End and not too far from Porthcurno and Mousehole. Ideal for our visit to the Minack Theatre.

The booking process was very quick and efficient, the price very reasonable considering it was high season.

Reviewer: Tonybacon 10 reviews from this member

 Just had 2 weeks down here and it was great weather and all of us came back with a sun tan. Sennen Cove just down the road was also great. Pitch was big for our 8 man tent and car with a water tap on all pitches. Site Facilities were good, cafe and bar was great and the price for 2 weeks was fantastic, but only let down was that the showers were not hot enough. I would stay here again.

Reviewer: Newbuild4 1 review from this member

 We have been camping at cardinney for several years now through the summer, the campsite is always very clean and tidy the bar is always well stocked, the restaurant food portions are large and excellent value, the toilet and shower block are more than adequate for a camping holiday and the noise curfew is a brilliant addition for a good nights sleep after a busy day.

We always have a warm welcome from Kevin and Liz the campsite owners and looking forward to our 2016 camping trips to cardinney

Reviewer: KarenRob 3 reviews from this member

 Lovely site, well laid out owners very friendly loved the fact that the hook ups and the grey water/fresh water were close by. The only gripe I have is the showers you couldn't alter flow direction so not good for a good body shower also water not very hot. My shoes and clothes got soaked even though they were hanging up on the hooks provided.

That said it was a lovely site the food was plentiful and hot. We will be going back next month for a couple of days this time. 


Popular Choice in this Area

Tregarton Park, Mevagissey

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



Date of Visit: August 2012 Unit:  Tent
Reviewer: Spoon 1 review from this member

 The staff were welcoming and showed us to our pitch and where things were. Had choice of any pitch. It was well sheltered with shrubs and bushes. The showers were dated and small and drainage seemed to block getting anything you have on the dry area getting wet.

The site was lacking on external lighting even if it went off at midnight. A torch is a must. The boiler in the washing up area went out a few times so I had to reignite. The site seemed to have its regular visitors.

I think the grounds are well kept. The price for a basic non service pitch for a tent is over priced at £14. 00 per night. I haves used many camp sites in both tent and touring van. This is the most I paid for a tent so wouldn't go back. The location is great as a base to explore, Cornwall.

I can't comment on the cafe as we didn't eat there. Nor if the site is child friendly. Though there wasn't anything visible to keep kids amused, ie small play areas

Reviewer: AFK968Y 4 reviews from this member

 An easy to find site and owners very friendly and welcoming.

In easy reach of Penzance and various beaches and other interesting places to visit.

Various supermarkets within a ten mile radius.

Site is clean and quiet with well-kept grass and tent areas surrounded by hedges and trees to keep the winds away.

Owners were very friendly and helpful, and the bar and restaurant was a real bonus, without any rip-off prices.

Toilet facilities OK with plenty of hot water available; strange bits of paper like kitchen roll next to each sink!

Free showers and useful washing-up bowls; pity that some other campers aren't as clean as we are.

We'll go again if we ever visit that part of Cornwall.

Considering the location, pitch prices were very good as well. 


Date of Visit: February 2012 Unit:  Motorhome
Reviewer: Atirakin 3 reviews from this member

 Easy to get to Lands End and finding the site was easy. The first impression of a very badly maintained road leading to the entrance was daunting and we hope that the road is repaired soon. The site itself is very welcoming and plenty of hard standing; however the hard-standing were water logged and were not hard enough to stop wheels sinking. More aggregate appeared to be necessary? The toilets were clean and cared for, however the cleaning cloths screwed up and placed underneath every soap dispenser was a bit off putting? The bar wasn't open to us and although this site was an all year site it appeared to be lacking in readily available personnel and once we had paid no one was available for questions? The site gives you good access to Land's End, Penzance, the lizard. Great Pasties in Penzance one baker has as many as three shops in the town showing the popularity of the pasty. The landscaping of this site was good. We will go back again. 


Date of Visit: August 2011 Unit:  Touring Caravan
Reviewer: R Harri 6 reviews from this member

 We stayed on this campsite with our caravan for 8 nights. The access lane off the A30 to the campsite was narrow but ok, as long as you don’t meet another vehicle which we did.

The owners were friendly and escorted us to our pitch which was fully serviced whilst showing us the facilities.

The site is well-sheltered by numerous hedges and well maintained and it was quite for the time of year which I didn’t mind as I didn’t have to queue for the showers.

The shower facilities were clean but are a bit small and have seen better days. There is a shop on site with a restaurant and bar, We didn't use the bar or restaurant on our stay so I can't comment.

The site is in a good location for visiting the surrounding area. Penzance is just over 5 miles away with out-of-town Tesco and Morrison’s.

We had a very enjoyable Sunday lunch at The first and last inn, Sennen near Lands end. It was good value for money.

Sennen is not far away and has all the usual facilities

Reviewer: Valkrider 14 reviews from this member

 Stayed on this campsite with my motorcycle and tent in August.

We found the staff very friendly and the pitch was large and well kept. The pitches are divided by hedges with enough room for two tents in each, which is ideal if you are with friends.

The toilet/shower blocks,although they looked a bit dated were clean with plenty of hot water,the ladies had a small hairdryer.

There is a small shop which was well stocked,bar and restaurant.We didn't use the bar / restaurant on our stay so I can't comment.

The only downside on this site is because of the hedges and trees there is no view from your tent.
