lovely little site

stayed on this site for four nights. Site is very clean as are toilets and showers. Staff on site very friendly and helpful. As others have commented, the site does slope a little (more down the bottom of the field) and there are only limited hardstanding pitches. We were in the field closest to the road and there was a fair bit of traffic noise so would probably stay in another field next time. There is a little shop selling bread etc if needed. Other than the road noise, the site is exceptionally quiet. We walked into Camelford (about 10 mins) where there is a dog friendly pub and a few places to get food, as well as a co-op. Good base as others have said for Port Isaac. We went to Tintagel too and also drove to newquay, Jamaica Inn and bodmin moor and also ventured as far afield as St Ives (1 hr 15 mins drive). We will definitely return here.

Perfect for visiting North Cornwall

We arrived on the Saturday in time to set up before we had two days of torrential rain. The site, being slightly sloped, soon drained quickly. Camelford site was kept very clean and tidy by the friendly staff. We found this to be an ideal site for visiting places like Boscastle, Tintagel & Port Isaac. The South coast is only an hours drive away for places like Looe and Polperro. There can be a high level of road traffic noise if you are parked at the road end of the site but while we were there the local farmers were harvesting a crop which meant there were many large tractors using the road through daylight hours. Other than that, there was nothing that would stop us visiting this lovely site again, which we hope to do next year.

Lovely peaceful site

We stayed here for one week from 13th June. The facilities were good and very clean. We found it to be central for lots of places including Padstow, Tintagel and Boscastle. The only let down was the weather. Would definitely stay here again.

Report

Just returned from two weeks in Cornwall and Devon. Spent three nights at Camelford from 9th June 2016 Pro's :- Wardens extremely helpful as we had problems with caravan tyres and recomended garage next to site, which worked out well. Toilet and shower blocks exceptionally clean, site well kept. Cons:- we were on pitch 7 and TV reception was poor to say the least. NO WIFI which may be intentional? to keep the site "old school" however in this day and age a necessity. Pitches not level so ramps required.

A week at Camelford

Spent 6 nights at this site, Nice & quiet even though site was quite full by the time we left.Found staff very friendly & helpful, Toilet & shower facilities were kept clean & tidy, if getting a little dated. The pitches are mostly level, but would advise having levelling blocks if on the grass areas. Only downside of this site is very poor phone reception, no 4G reception only GPRS on my O2 phone, therefore no internet, Also no Wi-Fi available here either, so you have to go into towns to get a decent signal, my mobile broadband dongle would not work here either. There are good laundry facilities, used while away.

Pleasant, quiet site

Stayed here for a week in May and found the site peaceful and quiet. The facilities spotless. The wardens friendly and helpful even gave us some wood to help lift our steps as levels were high. In fact both wardens always smiled and spoke when out and about and just made us feel welcome.

Small but perfectly formed

We stayed at Camelford for just one night while driving back up to Surrey but would have loved to have stayed longer. Beautiful views and very peaceful. We arrived during a bad storm and had been battered by gales along the way, where our caravan had sustained some damage. The wardens, Kath and Denise were great and went out of their way to help us sort out a temporary fix on the van before we moved on the next day. Once the winds had calmed down we enjoyed the stunning scenery and short walk to a nearby supermarket to get supplies. We were lucky enough to have one of the hardstanding pitches which was great considering the weather but there were plenty of grass pitches too, my preferred pitch if it's dry. Showers were spotless and well equipped. Ideal location for a short stopover, just off the A39 but not just as a transit point but as a destination too.

Disappointing

After staying at other club sites Camelford was abit of a let down. There are only 13 hard standing pitches which are level. We were on grass (no problem) but it wasn't level (no problem) but after 2 days of persistant rain became water logged - in fact the steps were down to the rung and had to be dug out!!! Coming back from the shower block feet needed to be rewashed because of the mud. Desperately needs draining. There isn't a great deal around the site although there is a pub and golf club down a narrow lane (unlit). Camelford is a good 20 mins walk but has a good selection of pubs and a few shops.

Lovely Cornwall

Returned from Camelford a few days ago and missing Cornwall already. Stayed at this site for 21 nights and thoroughly enjoyed every one of them. Site was quiet and well-maintained with perfectly adequate shower and toilet facilities that were always clean and tidy. Staff were friendly and helpful. Hope to visit again soon.
