Hi Robert,

Many thanks for a pleasurable stay, we are already talking about returning, this time with my daughters family. I have submitted a review via your listing, and hope it will be published in the near future.

I'm pleased you enjoyed your stay Linsee, it's good to know that there are spacious well kept sites, with reasonable prices, still out there!

FYI Tregarton

When I was a young lad in the mid-late 1970's we always used to go down to a site called Tregarton Farm near Gorran in the summer hols - is this the same site?  I have looked on Google maps and it's in the same position as I remember it.

The site was pretty large, part sloping, with rambling farm buildings and cobwebs and spiders in the toilet block, me getting sweets, toys and comics from the shop.  It was all absolute heaven for a young kid and the mates I inevitably made whenever I visited.  I have dreamy memories of the playing area, flying kites and what seemed like weeks of bliss on Caerhays beach (it was weeks actually, my dad was a headmaster so we spent about a month there each August!).

I can't remember the name of the owners but the husband was always driving arround in his land rover with his two sons willing to help with anything (it sounds terrible but the only thing I remember is they all had khaki shorts and really thick glasses !!!)

Excuse my ramblings but they were the happiest of days ......  If this is is indeed the same place I endeavour to bring my family and caravan down to relive the whole experience!!

MR & MRS WILKINSON !!!  ... brilliant, now I remember

Thanks for the update, it's made my day to know that the old place is still there, albeit in 2009 form.  I will certainly make plans to return now ....

I am pleased my initial post has prompted a response, it's good to know that others have experienced the tranquility of 'Tregarton Park', and the post by snifferg, and response by Robert (Tregarton Park) has given us an insight into the history of the site as a whole. Go on snifferg, make a nostalgic visit, I'm sure you won't be disappointed!

Regards,

I am sure you will enjoy your stay Lady K!

Hi - we stayed at Tregarton Park for the 1st time in early-mid June this year. Fab park with HUGE spacious pitches .  Very well maintained and I can only echo Petpin and the previous comments. 

And... very reasonably priced .  If we go back to this part of Cornwall we would definitely go back to Tregarton Park.
