I guess with all reviews it starts out with what you are expecting and the weather plays a part in your lasting impression. Well we were expecting a site that was quiet and fairly remote with a good area for our small dogs on the site and the ability to walk from the site. In early May the weather was fantastic and we choose pitches in the large open grass area at the top of the site. When we arrived we were the only caravans (travelling with my brother and his caravan) in that area. There's a large play area with loads of equipment which looked great for kids (but we were told on arrival that no kids were booked in for the time of our stay - not that it would have mattered) and a large area at the bottom of the field for kids to play ball games etc. For us the great part was the next, enclosed, field where the dogs could run around without leads. We also took a stunning walk to Pendower Beach (leaflet at reception), with the only "tricky" bit crossing the main road and 20 yds without pavement to the top of the lane opposite (use the grass banking). Within minutes you're on the coastal path (can go either way) with stunning views. Head to Pendower Beach, about 40 min walk, where there is a small cafe and toilets nearby. Try the higher path on the way back as its much flatter (immediately right after joining the footpath from the road up from the beach) and you emerge near the same farm shop you pass when you set off. We visited (and I recommend) St Maws, Mevegissey, Falmouth, and the Lost Gardens of Heligan (I was surprised how interesting this was not being a Gardner - and it's 2 for 1 with caravan club card!) So with lots to do and good walks nearby that just leaves the site. Perfect. Wardens friendly and constantly busy. It has to be one of the best maintained sites I've seen. Facilities were good. Pizza van calls one evening and chip van another. The usual bits are available from the site shop but any other groceries do need a car trip. If you want a spacious well maintained site, slightly off the beaten track with great facilities for your kids or dogs then this has to be near the top of your list. We will return.
