What visitors say

Green Happiness

A fantastic camping trip along with the exploration around Cornwall. The location is easy to reach the famous spots by car. We hired a bell tent which has electricity and beddings. A real vibe for camping with private space for fire pit. They also sell the fire logs. The service is perfect and reachable via whatsapp in case we need. Thanks for the heater on request. The shared bathroom and toilets are clean and perfect. Recommend the place if you plan to travel Cornwall with the camping vibe.

Stayed here for 2 nights in our camper van while travelling around Cornwall for 4 weeks. Easy to book online. On arrival no-one was at reception but our info was clearly laid out for us, so we easily found our pitch and set up. Within 10 minutes the owner passed and introduced himself and advised where everything was. Toilet and shower blocks were closed as it was out of season but 2 x family wet rooms were available. They were spotless and had all the necessary cleaning items in them to keep them tidy after you'd used them. The whole site is very well maintained. Really wide road so easy to reverse into pitches without churning up grass. Pitches are a great size. Everywhere is thick gravel so despite the rain we've had it was not muddy at all. Some lovely seasonal residents who were all chatty and pleasant. A field for dogs to run off lead just next to site. Indoor washing up area with a washing machine and dryer. £6 per wash and a £1 for 10 mins for the dryer. Pretty standard cost. You will need coins for the machines. Well lit site which is great for me. One of my pet hates as a female is a site thats pitch black, especially around toilet block. Just a warning that our phones had zero signal here [EE and Three network]. Didn't bother us as we had TV shows downloaded to watch. There was free WiFi was intermittent for us. Really wasn't an issue though, we would definitely stay here again.

What a beautiful site Polladras is !! John and Rachael are great site owners that are very friendly and cant do enough to make sure your stay is as good as it can be . The staff are all lovely and the site well kept , it is a nice quiet site but conveniently situated between lots of small cornish villages . Many of the guests return time after time which is a great testament to the place x

Polladras Holiday Park was an amazing visit. John & Rachael were accommodating and eager to assist. The play area kept the kids entertained and the selection of arcade games and 2p machines were entertaining for all. The Toilets, Showers, Family Wet Rooms and Washing Facilities were always well maintained and kept clean, with a mop, bucket and squeegee available in each location, so the visitors can assist with keeping the site clean. Bricks are readily available for those who want to have fire pits, which you can also rent on site. I've only marked the location down as a caution to drivers as the approach to the Holiday Park is via very tight single track lanes.
