Why stay here ...

Toynes is a delightful site situated on level ground surrounded by high trees.

The site has undergone significant investment and there are now ten hookup points, giving plenty of choice as to where to pitch. There are three water points incorporating six taps in the field. A septic tank with a chemical toilet emptying point and a separate grey waste water point has been installed. There is a Wi-Fi point with good reception. There is a fairly large hardstanding area with particular attention given to access to the field and underground drainage.

Although the site is situated next to the main road into Fowey it is sheltered by the trees and is quiet and peaceful with plenty of early morning and evening birdsong. There is a pleasant dog walk down to an orchard on site. The bus stop to Fowey is just 150 yards away at the Castledore crossroads. The villages of Golant and Tywardreath are both within a mile and a half and each has a pub providing meals.

Update 2024

Toynes House
I agree with John Tull 30/07/2021 and I cant see any reason to change it. The road to Fowey B3296 I have to mention because most people have ignored it in their reviews.In my opinionI have to give an average rating compared with other sites in the uk. To give it a higher rating it would have to be like the one we have been on in the Cotswolds,where every pitch had water/ electric and spaced 9 metres between each unit. We also had hard standing and grass, lovely views at sunset, quiet with only the odd tractor passing, and the cows coming and going from the milking parlour . The Cotswold site also had two toilets and a shower.It also had two picnic benches and the site was very well maintained. Separate dog walking area aswell.

Super site

Toynes House
A super site with all the necessary hook ups, drinking water in several places, excellent waste disposal point and even a waste water cleaning point. The owner Bruce is a super chap and very willing to help out with any problems. Site is close to fowey and other seaside towns, an ideal spot for south Cornwall, Richard Lake

Toynes House
What a terrific 5 nights we've just had at Toynes House CL. Bruce was very helpful and efficient during the booking advising on whether we could get in and was present on our arrival helping us choose where to pitch and explain all the CL details. After that he was on hand if required but not at all intrusive. Very interesting summary of the history of Toynes House and the CL in the 'Summer House' on site with lots of other useful info (bus times/walks/useful nos etc). Huge amount to do in the area, we golf and played Carlyon Bay (awesome), Porthpean (good vfm) and Lanhydroc (beautiful). Explored Fowey, Charlestown and Mevagissey and visited Lanhydroc House (NT) and had a day at Polridmouth Cove (NT). The site is spacious (full when we were there and lots of room between pitches), the road much quieter than I expected being the main road in and out of Fowey and seemed empty at night. Entrance a bit cheeky with our UK Fifth Wheel and the only very minor criticism I have is that Bruce could trim some of the bushes on the entrance/exit as we had to force our mirrors through them to get in/out. Very quiet and dark at night and we'll definitely be back next time we are in this area as much left to explore.

VERY GOOD SITE and good location

Toynes House
This is a very pleasant site with some hardstanding and grass pitches. Water is available to 'plumb in' for a couple of the pitches but you may need an extra long hose to connect! Whilst the site is next to the road there is very little traffic during the night and what there was did not cause us any concern. Bruce is a very welcoming host and always at hand to help in any way he can. He keeps the site very tidy and clean. Care is needed when accessing and leaving the site as the entrance is a little narrow and there is not so much room to manoeuvre. Traffic is quite fast moving. Some good walks from the site and nearby. Bus to Fowey every hour is a great asset as parking in the town is very limited and expensive! Fowey is a small but lovely town to explore. Some nice & interesting shops, several cafes and restaurants. A highly recommended site in a good area.

April 2023 at Toynes House CL Fowey

Toynes House
We stayed at this site during April and found it to be pleasant and welcoming. There is a dog walk on site and an abundance of flora. Our host Bruce was helpful and very knowledgeable about the area. The bus stop is two minutes from site and the bus runs every hour to Fowey in one direction and Charlestown, (highly recommend), St Austell and Mevagissey in the other. In our opinion the best and most fairly priced CL in Fowey and we will definitely return. M & S Stevens
