  A site to add to your favourites list

A quiet and perfectly equipped site , the shower block was immaculately clean and well kept . I had water on my spacious pitch and the EHU worked perfectly . Staff and owners very helpful and friendly, from giving advice on local walks to fixing a car with a flat battery . Just opposite the entrance to the site is a multitude of lanes and paths to walk your dog with further access to the coast path . Bus service at the gate is very useful for planning linear walks along the coast path .

  Very friendly and helpful

If you fancy going to Cornwall but don’t fancy driving along very narrow country lanes to get to a campsite this is the place for you. Stayed here for 7 nights and enjoyed the break. The site is looked after by 4 or 5 members of staff very friendly and helpful. You can catch a service bus right outside the campsite to travel around on we did Lands End, Senen Cove, Penzance, St Ives and many other places. St Just is about 2 miles away where there are a few shops and again you can just jump on the bus. There’s plenty of nice walks around and a lovely cafe near the tin mine.

  Would love to stay again.

We very much enjoyed our recent stay in the Levant fixed caravan. The accommodation was very clean and comfortable with plenty of space and a lovely view of fields and trees. The location is excellent, very peaceful and with the the Coast Path just a short walk away. My one criticism would be that the kitchen was quite sparsely equipped; I would have appreciated a teapot and perhaps a salad spinner, but this might not bother those who mostly eat out. We don't often go back to the same accommodation, but I would love to stay here again.
