This is and excellent site for access to the Southwest coast path with great views and stunning scenery.
Lovely walks to Tintagel, Boscastle about an hour and a half in each direction, leaving lots of time to explore before return walk or bus back.
Lots of places to eat and drink.
A walk to St Nectans Glen via Rocky valley is lovely with the reward to a great cafe at the end.
The site facilities are excellent, the staff are great and the views fantastic.
Pitching up fun
Lovely site and stunning views , very nice tiered site layout enabling most pitches to have that view to die for .
Arrival procedure however rather unusual compared to every other site we've ever stayed on . They require you to walk around the site before entering with your outfit , to find a pitch first , that's after giving you a site map with available pitches highlighted , sounds good in practice but not so helpful if the weather was bad , or your mobility not great , or if people have already 'nabbed pitches' and not told or updated reception , as its a very hilly site with pitches off in all directions , also not flexible when it comes to pitching , we positioned our motorhome sideways 'well' within markers and 8 metres away from next nearest unit , we were asked to reposition it . Despite saying clearly on pitching guide .. our pitching markers are now further apart , please position your outfit 'anywhere' between them . Checked and there's plenty of reviews about staff being rude ! , personally they weren't rude to us but maybe management should have a rethink about things , because without happy campers they wouldn't have a job . Only saying !!
Views to die for!
What a gem! Views are absolutely spectacular! We stayed on the top field on a grass pitch, I wouldn’t recommend an awning here as it’s so windy. A temporary looking toilet and shower block but super nice inside and lovely hot showers! Nicer than the main block in my opinion. Wardens super friendly and helpful. Walk to the beach certainly isn’t for the feint hearted. We walked it with our 2 elderly dogs and one 42kg dog had to be carried at points on the way back up as it was too steep and slippery for her. Maybe I would walk it again but not with the dogs. You need walking boots, water and stamina! But the beach at the end was beautiful, we even saw a seal in the sea. No shops nearby so make sure you take everything you need.
We will 100% return to this site.

Good site for views , walks and catching buses to explore if you are a motorhomer
Lovely site flat pitches with views of the sea, friendly staff, and easy access. Nice walks to the waterfall, Tintagel and Boscastle but you need to be fit as the coast path is up and down hills both ways plus catch the bus to Bude.
Stayed between 28/08 and 21/09/2
My wife and I plus the dogs stayed here for 24 nights fabulous views in fact we’ve got 2 nights left on our first visit to this site. Follow the club directions to the site do not use any other route or sat nav directions! The pitch choice is a little different you speak to the wardens who tell you the available pitch numbers your given a pot to place on the pitch you choose before driving to it and setting up. At 0900 the following day you can return to the wardens and ask what pitches will become available that day if you want you can ask for another pot to book that pitch which you can move to after the current residents have departed. This is what we and a few others did to get a better view. The wardens could not be more welcoming or helpful. The site can windy so we decided against bringing our awning but plenty did and didn’t have any problems. The coastal path is yards from the site with walks to Boscastle or Tintagel you can return by bus which runs every 2 hours or you can visit either by bus which stops outside the entrance . We aren’t fit in our 60s I’m 68 and barely made it to Boscastle it was a hot day and took us nearly 3 hrs we got the bus back inc the dogs with no issues (Tintagel is harder and we didn’t walk all the way there). The facilities are kept clean and tidy and the nearest shops about 2 miles away. The Boscastle farm shop and restaurant are well worth a visit. Plenty of places to visit but try as much as possible to stick to main roads our sat nav took us on short cuts down lanes not wide enough for the car and few if any passing places. Going to the Seal Sanctuary I had to reverse uphill around 3 bends to let 2 lorries pass all good fun. We had a great stay and hope to return soon.
Hidden Gem
What a wonderful site. Quiet, well kept, with friendly staff. Fabulous views, including spectacular sunsets. Direct access to the coast path with walks to Boscastle and Tintagel. Regular bus service passes the gate. Will certainly be back.
Loved it!
First stay on a club site and loved it. Great location and staff were lovely and really helpful. Will stay here again in the future.
views well worth a visit
The site was very clean and the staff all helpful and very pleasant.
The only down size was due to the very strong winds which I know they cannot control but maybe a few hedges between the top pitches which are big enough to accommodate this would help, as we put up our awning but had to take it down same day due to the strength of the wind.
Saying that the view out to sea was amazing, we even saw a meteorite shower when there
on top field there are portable toilets(always clean) the gents could do with another toilet as there was only the one with two urinals, got very busy
Great site
Great views, facilities and staff. Friendly and helpful. Site pretty and very clean. Good location and bus service.

Excellent site and wonderful staff!
We stayed here for a total of five nights and completely enjoyed our time here. We are traveling in our campervan we shipped here from the US and always look for easy ways to get around while leaving our RV parked. There is a bus that stops at the top of the site and also the coast path goes right past the site for those that can hike (you need to be able to handle rocky and hilly terrain). There are beaches when the tide is out and they are quite something to see and experience. Also Tintagel Castle can be walked to (a good hike) and the main pub in town there has great food.
The staff at this site are wonderful and very helpful. We can also say they run a very clean site where everything works properly. Nothing is too much bother and they will accommodate any request if they can. They even helped several people during our stay when the wind became crazy and awnings were blowing away and coming apart even though it was late in the evening.
The views are great from the site, especially from the upper sections overlooking the water. This is a must stay place for sure. Be mindful of NOT listening to your GPS as it will take you down some very narrow lanes. Stick to the main B road to get to the site, trust us on that.
Thanks for the lovely stay, we would come again for sure.
