We stayed for 3 nights middle of July and were pretty lucky with the weather. The last night we experienced heavy rain and a fair bit of wind, even though the site is fairly exposed, we were perfectly fine.
The views are probably some of the best from a campsite, in all directions.
Showers are lovely and hot, though the number of showers/toilets is slightly limited - having said that I only had to wait for a toilet once and never for a shower because the site is not very big.
Very friendly people, would recommend and also stay again.
Fantastic site. Lovely remote location, stunning views and very quiet, just what we like. (A bit of a drive to the coast but nice to stay in a new area and the moor is very beautiful. )
Easy to get to and from the site using the road that comes up from Minions - other routes are very narrow and windy so don't use your satnav. The drive up to the farm is steep but well surfaced.
The site itself is peaceful and the pitches are well laid out and quite far apart. We had a premium pitch with EHU which was level and very nice.
The bathroom facilities are good, with nice hot showers. These were always kept clean while we were there and there was a mop/broom provided for keeping the floor dry/sweeping up grass clippings.
The washing up area is inside a shed and there is a kettle to use to provide hot water. There was also a microwave. A washing machine is also available with an honesty box which we found very helpful as we were staying two weeks.
Minions village is very close and has a well stocked village shop and tearoom plus another tearoom which were both very good.
Nearby walks from the door are the Cheesewring rock formations, Hurlers Neolithic stone circles, and a couple of different quarries and old railway lines. Great place for walking.
The owner did his rounds checking on the site and everyone morning and night and was very friendly and helpful.
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
I booked for one night, but ended up staying for two, as I enjoyed the site so much. Well tended pitches, good facilities and fab views.
Dog walking field is great and the views from this and the site are fab. I camped in my small converted van. I had a tent pitch which was well arranged. My dog stayed for free.
The hosts even provide a homemade cream tea, brought to the pitch. Brilliant can’t recommend enough via mobile
Rang John to enquire, he rang back within minutes. Very helpful as we are fairly new to all this. He took our booking and was there to greet us. We had a electric hook-up right by the van.
The view is to die for. Straight out on to Bodmin and Sharp Tor, then views across the Tamar valley to Dartmoor, breath taking. The facilities are exactly as I would expect, very clean and well maintained. John is one of a kind, old school. His standard of service is fantastic and he has great knowledge of the area.
We will definitely return it only being an hour drive from where we are on the Lizard in Cornwall. Oh and the cream tea was waiting for us when we returned from a walk arround Stowes Hill and the Cheesewring. Cream on top the Cornish way.
10/10 from us. Although the wood Pidgeon could be a bit quieter. LOL
Just returned from a 2 night stay at Cheesewring farm campsite, which is a certified caravan and camp club site.
On arrival we were greeted by Lyn, who showed us to our pitch and gave us helpful information about the local area. Once we had pitched the tent she returned with scones and jam for us all which was a lovely surprise.
Apart from the EHU tent pitches, and the camper van pitches the site is on a slope, and you may need several chocks for a caravan. The access is also on a narrow road, and the final bend is steep, so you may need to take this into consideration if you are bringing a caravan.
The facilities consisted of 3 bathrooms a family, male and a female room, with toilet, sink and shower in each. The family bathroom also had a baby bath. These were clean apart from grass cuttings that stuck to shoes and the bin wasn’t emptied daily, but this wasn’t an issue and didn’t affect us. There were also 2 port-a-loos which I am guessing are for when site gets busy, but we didn’t need to use these on our stay.
The site had a fab little cabin, which had a sink, kettle, microwave, washing machine, fridge and freezer. There was also a socket free for charging etc, and bbq/fire pits for hire. There was lots of useful information about the site and the local area.
The site itself was nicely laid out and had the most amazing view. Despite being high up on the hillside the site was fairly sheltered thanks to the trees and bushes behind us and the tall evergreens at the front of the site. There are many walks from the site, and lots of local history with the ruins of the copper mines not far away.
Thank you very much Lyn and John for a great weekend, we hope to book another stay soon via mobile
Easily one of the best sites we have ever visited. Great hosts, lovely outlook and nice facilities. Our grandchildren loved being able to up close with the animals. The location is superb for getting onto this, often overlooked, part of Bodmin Moor.
The roads heading to the site can be a little bit tight but nothing too bad. It's worth having a quick check on Google Streetview before visiting just to get familiar.
Cheesewring is certainly a site we will return to.
Absolutely loved this campsite. Arrived to a friendly welcome and the promised cream tea - delicious homemade scones, jam and cream - result!
The location is amazing if you are into walking, high up on Bodmin Moor with fantastic views in all directions. Pathways leading directly from the camping field up into the hills and moors. Cheesewring rock formation is directly above the site, it's a long steep climb but once you are up there it's fab. The moors surrounding here are littered with amazing relics of our mining past, as well as much older relics, stone circles, standing stones etc. You can walk for miles soaking up the views and the grandeur of the place, and indeed I did.
There is also a disused ancient railway leading alongside the site which leads you into the village where you'll find a pub, tearoom and shop. It's about a 20 minute walk each way. The shop has a cafe too, although in early March opening hours were very limited. Check with the site owner before you go down there if unsure.
Facilities were great, everything you could ask for. Two lovely huge wetrooms for the gents and ladies, containing walk in shower, loo, sink etc. There were also a couple of portaloos, but I didn't even look in them, as I was the only person on site! There's a shed containing washing up sink, kettle, fridge, washing machine and info leaflets. There's a playground for the kids. Free wifi too on the pitches, although I found my 4G connection was blisteringly fast so didn;t use it.
I stayed two nights in early March, one person, one dog with EHU, and I paid £16 a night. Good hardstanding, with grass pitches available too.
Would definitely recommend, and will definitely be back!
