Cornwall at its best

Set in a small farming hamlet, overlooking the Mylor Creek valley, this CL is on a slightly sloping field which points all pitches towards the view over the valley. Part of the hedge has recently been removed to afford this panorama. The pitches are well spaced around the field, which is large, so you should never feel in any way cramped or the view obscured. Nice to have service water on every pitch. The access road is narrow in places and be sure to follow the CAMC handbook directions as the alternative ( suggested by Google Maps) is steeper and narrower. The last 150 yards is single track to the site gate. We had no problems on our visit. There is a path down in to Mylor Bridge which is approx 20 minute walk although, its a climb coming back, but a pleasant walk. We used a mini bus service from the village to travel to Falmouth which drops in the very centre of the town. There are good walks around the peninsula and a small stony beach suitable for swimming, boats etc. There is a working farm next door with the occasional associated background noise, which was never obtrusive and wildlife to watch at all times around the field. The field is large, approx. 1 acre so the grass is mowed by a tractor ( I assume) and is a bit longer than your average grass pitches, but it would be impossible to cut with a standard lawn mower due to the size. This only added to the rural feel of the site. I marked down to 4 stars for the ease of arrival / welcome as we never met the owners ( not necessary) but had to pay for 8 nights up front when booked 8 months before holiday. We stayed on 4 CL's during this holiday and this was the only site that asked for this. I can understand the reasoning, but I wonder what would happen if one or other party had to cancel during this period. Overall, a really nice spot in a good location for southern Cornwall.
