Why stay here ...

Our CL is a tranquil site set on a small holding in the countryside, which is part of the Tamar Valley A.N.O.B Cornwall. Adults, children and pets are all welcome. The site itself stands on its own at the top of a large field, this is flat with electric hook ups, and plenty of space. There is also a separate toilet and sink. The site is an excellent base for exploring the surrounding area, with Cotehele House and walks through stunning countryside, all within easy reach. We have a Donkey park which is a 10 minute walk away and you can also take an organised canoe trip on the river Tamar. We have two Public Houses in the village and they both serve food. The near by town of Tavistock  (which is in Devon and only 10 minutes drive) has Supermarkets, resturants, Historic Buildings an indoor Panier market, a Cinema, Swimming pool and Tennis courts. There is a bus stop nearby and the Railway Station to Plymouth is one mile away. The train from Cornwall into Plymouth takes 45 minutes and takes you over the Calstock Viaduct. We are very close to the Cornwall and Devon boarder, you can reach Lands End (the tip of Cornwall) in under two hours, the Eden Project in 45 minutes, so you can see we are very central.

All-weather track now installed.

Cornwall gem

South View
What a fab little cl site, we have been coming here for 4 years and always had a warm welcome. Its even better now the shower room is functioning (metered 20p/£1) with a couple of toilets too as well as a recycling area and fresh water and some EHU points. Large camping field area where you can choose where to pitch, or in the winter parking on the all-weather track. Great for walking the dog from site, in countless direction to Cothele (NT), Calstock, Gunnislake (catch the train to Plymouth), Kit Hill or bus to Tavistock. All the local pubs are fantastic as well as several cafes further afield (Louis and The engine house near Kit Hill) Altogether just fantastic!

Would we return?

The site has easy access. As a previous reviewer remarked, try not to be put off by the graveyard of caravans which lead you into a very nice and peaceful cl. Water and recycling on this site. There is 1 working toilet with sink at the bottom of the track, which was very clean and well stocked with paper and towels, be aware that the rough gravel outside the loo is prone to flooding. We were very disappointed and somewhat surprised to see that the shower and second toilet is still not finished from 2 years ago according to comments on other reviews. If you can put up with using your own shower then £15 pn is good value. If not then check when booking as we should have done.

Relaxing spot

South View
We have just had 2 nights here and were not disappointed. The field is a good size surrounded by hedges which reduced the wind on a breezy day with well cut grass. It was quiet at night despite being next to the road which was busy during the day. The Tawney owl was out the other night which was nice to hear. The site was clean and tidy and nice to see recycling facilities available to use next to the fresh water tap and bin. The toilet had soap, toilet paper and hand towels. We have stayed in some that don't. The showers will be great when they are finished but not an issue for us as we have a shower on board. The Carpenter's Arms in Metherell was just about to start doing food again after a kitchen refurb so we did not eat there. It had a good community feel to it and does quiz nights and live music. The site is very handy for visiting Calstock and Cotehele both of which can be walked to from the site. Hosts Nikki and Chris were very friendly. We are already looking at when we can come back for a few days as this is great for a short break away.

Great Owners /Decent site

South View
All, Stayed at South View single axle caravan 2 occupants Aug 2021. Easy place to find [dont use sat nav]. Easy access into a large field [not the campsite] along a track past some rustic farm machinery/vehicles. The CL field is fairly large plenty of room for 5 set ups. Surrounded by hedges which restricts the view...but also protects the field from wind [you cant have both]. A water tap and grey waste in the corner for all to use as is the recycle area for waste. Electric hook ups on the edges of the field. No shower[s] but being built right now....single toilet..a second being built right now too i believe. No pot wash [not sure if one is being built?]. Chemical waste yes. Would we stay again........yes we would defo...great owners Chris [and Knikki]...great location for sight seeing/walks/NT locations/shops/fuel. No WIFI [not that I knew of]. 8/10 It worked great for us. Thank you guys....
