⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ We had a wonderful stay at Porth Beach Holiday Park. After we returned home, I realised I had accidentally left my Oppo phone in the caravan. The staff found it, looked after it and kindly posted it back to me. Katy and the team were very helpful, honest and professional. I am very grateful for their kindness and excellent customer service. I highly recommend Porth Beach and will tell my friends and family about this wonderful place. Thank you very much!

Absolutely beautiful site well located near the beach. The site in all the years we have been coming here is run excellent by the management and staff who are always friendly and cannot do enough for you. The site itself is kept really clean the toilet block looks like new always clean and tidy. Tried to book the same pitch for the same time next year unfortunately it’s booked up until gone July that’s how popular it is. Credit to the management and staff.

We stayed there with our two children. A very quiet and great place. Lovely and helpful ladies on the reception. Amazing toilet and shower facilities. Beach walkable distance with young kids. The only negative was that there was no facilities for children (little green area for ball games or a play park would be great). We would happily stay there again. Loved it.

Ok, so enjoyed are staying but some feedback, I think costs have got a little high, extra costs for dogs when nothing really provided for them. Wifi is chargeable and sadly 4g locally doesnt work. Showers, after a day on the beach etc and for me personally I like to have the shower at the tempature I want, not pre set, it wasnt cold it was to hot
