My wife and I have returned to this site now for the last three years and it is definitely getting better! Hard to say I know when it’s always been very good ! A few positive changes for 2026 Food , Miles Better this year. We really enjoyed the breakfast and evening dinning Pool, Really Good! Always very clean and warm Immaculate pitches and changing room and the NEW SHOP is just the best Can’t wait to return in September · via Google [Mark Man](https://www.google.com/maps/contrib/116049844938274203560/reviews) ★★★★★ Can’t fault the site but the food seems to have gone down hill since last year. Supposedly hand made burgers they are frozen catering at best. Chips always cold. Food much better in previous years. Not busy but took nearly hour for a pizza and cold chips and a very average over priced platter. Won’t return for food but bar staff are lovely. · via Google [Paul Lockley](https://www.google.com/maps/contrib/101010738275976538518/reviews) ★★★★★ We had a week in July could not fault the site in anyway toilets so clean. showers so clean site so clean and well maintained staff so respectable meals in the club very good can't wait until next year once again to all the staff involved great work we'll done.i recommend this site to any one Who love Cornwall · via Google [Chris D](https://www.google.com/maps/contrib/117991583535340286175/reviews) ★★★★★ Excellent site and facilities. 20 min walk to watergate bay beach. My only gripe is when I booked online I chose a grass pitch 16amp electric. To me this means that the electric is included, it's not, you pay separate for it. Could do with being a bit clearer. · via Google People say this camping site offers spacious pitches, clean and well-maintained shower and toilet facilities, and an indoor swimming pool.
