 Just returned from a 10 day break in Cornwall. Stayed 5 days on another site in the Lizard that I did not enjoy at all as it was just too busy.
Arrived at this site and immediately fell in love with it.
It is in a quiet area that was ideal for us. No beaches in walking distance but are located about 1 to 2 miles away.
Heated outdoor pool was a hit as we were swimming every day rain or shine.
Toilets & shower block were clean and modern.
All facilities were great and would recommend this site.
Will be returning

Firstly, we agree with much of what has been said about this site. Wonderful location, facilities immaculately kept, and very friendly staff, well-stocked shop (reasonably priced), and pretty good take-away food. However, we were victims of our horrid summer, and our review takes this in to account.
The site was busy (bank holiday weekend), but it never felt cramped. Plenty of room, and a good play area for kids, and it was always easy to use the showers/loos/washing up facilities without having to queue. We didn't use the pool, but it looked great- even in the rain!
We were allocated pitch 79, and whilst it was a reasonable-sized pitch, it had obviously suffered too from our so-called summer. When we arrived it was blowing 40/50mph winds so it took almost 2 hours to get the tent up. They had flattend it out as much as possible, but it became increasingly muddy/squidgy under foot/canvas. Pitch 70 is also in the shade for MOST of the day, especially at this time of year so it didn't really have any time to dry. Perhaps some prolonged better weather would have helped, but we thought the pitch was almost unuseable after a couple of days, but we didn't relish the thought of packing everything up and moving, and it probably wouldn't have been possible due to it being a bank holiday. You can book your preferred pitch if you do so far enough in advance, and if we return, which we probably will, we will make sure we do that.
Our 16-month old daughter enjoyed herself too, and slept through the nights. The site really quietens down as darkness descends, and this was really nice. Sadly, the weather meant that she couldn't really run around/play on the grass.
We are generally hardened campers who will suffer the weather, and were considering staying on for a few more days, but everything became too wet.
In terms of what to do locally, Tregarton is really well situated. We hired bikes at Pentewan, and there is a great trail along the river to St Austell or in the other direction to Heligan.The Lost Gardens of Heligan are a few minutes' drive, and of course loads of beaches close by. Do visit Lobbs Farm shop at the entrance to Heligan.You will drool at the food, and although a little pricey, it has a fabulous butchers/delicatessen. Falmouth is also easily accessible. We took the ferry from St Mawes across Falmouth harbour- a much nice way of getting to Falmouth rather than driving.
In summary, there are big pluses to this site, and in good weather would be magical.Maybe next year it will be different!

We were at Tregarton Park at the beginning of August, the weather was okay for most of our stay, when it was wet, the site did not show any signs of water. Around our tents the ground was just damp.
The pitches are very big, we have an Outwell Maryland XL ( Big Tent ) and there was plenty of room to set up our seating area outside and Park our cars ( Our friends had the neighbouring pitch ).
The Dog walking area was adequate. The shower & washing facilities were very clean & well maintained, no complaints at all, the site staff were all very friendly and helpful. The swimming pool was a great bonus, although we did not use it much. We did play tennis, again the court is excellent, we will use it more next year. The shop had all the basics to get you going. There is an ASDA, Tesco & Aldi in St. Austell [ Not too far ]. I would highly recommend, we have rebooked for next year.
Only Downside - The Beaches are close to the site, but you cannot walk to them without going on the main roads. If you want do some walking, you have to drive off the site and park near the coastal paths. There are no Public Rights of way from the site. But with the site being so good, you put up with these little inconveniences. No Pubs in walking distance either - DOH !

Lovely site very clean all round, toilets/showers very impressive. Quite on the site 10.30 - 11.00pm unless you have noisy neighbours (like us). We stayed on pitch 84 very large but muddy when we got there. Had to pitch further away from the EHU which was situated on the next pitch (not very good lay out), we needed an extension which was supplied by the owners at no extra cost (they were very helpful).
But don't forget the fly spray we were swarmed with them also a few other pitches, due to this we only had a week there and not the two that was booked.
Also had a nasty furry rodent visit not nice OMG.
Overall very good site.

Stayed here for 6 nights with the wife and 2 kids 13 and 11 the campsite is clean the showers and toilets are immaculate the camp shop is well stocked with the essentials bread milk hot snacks
Morning papers etc st austell is about 7 miles away and there are some good beaches nearby there is no bar or club on site so it is pretty quite in the evenings the pitches on site are large 32ft/32ft tents and caravans are mixed
The swimming pool on site is good plenty of seats and loungers even though the site was full
I would recommend this site to friends and family and we will be going back we had a great time in Cornwall

Just returned from a week at Tregarton. This is a lovely well looked after site, shop well stocked, the heated pool was great for the kids with a good sitting area around the pool. Showers/toilets was kept very clean considering we had a lot of rain. The site did not get water logged where we was Pitch 70 and there is plenty of space between units so you didn't feel on top of one another. There was no club on the site which was great for us and anybody with a young family everybody was quite for 11.00pm. There is lots to do in the area. Would definitely recommend this site to anybody

Hi just to say that a return visit to the park after a break of 20 year how the site has change and so much better. The facilities are really first class and well looked after site unfortunately the weather did not help our visit to the area as I was so wet and windy. My only complaint of the was was having to move pitches after the first 4 day to the next door pitch and after talking the caravan owner that moved onto the pitch we were on he could not understand why we had to move as he would have just as happy to have used the pitch we had to move to. And the only other criticism was that the shop in mid season was only open 2hours in the morning and 2 hours in the afternoon which meant if you wanted a takeaway from the shop you had to order before 4 and to collect before 6-30. Tennis court shut at 6 and swimming pool shut a 6 as well so when reception closes all other facilities close as well. But as I say the park is well maintained. I'm returning to the park late in august and we will see hopefully with better weather

We arrived at this campsite after a long 7 hour drive. We arrived 2 hours early and tried our luck at reception. Was met by a very helpful gentleman who said our pitch was empty so we could get on early.
Pitch was on a slope which was slightly disappointing as just couldn't get the beds right in our bedroom.
Site was great, clean, tidy and very welcoming.
Our kids loved the outdoor swimming pool in all weathers! Even the rain.
Toilet blocks were clean and water nice and hot. Only pitfall is that they close them 1200-1300 for cleaning which caused problems with 3 children. Think it would have been better to close one side and then the other meaning there were always facilities for people to use.
Site shop is well stocked and take-away service is great idea although we didn't need to use it.
Campsite is only a short distance away by car from a lovely beach. (£2.50 for car park) and the town of Mevagissey isn't far either.
We would definitely visit again. A well organised and well run campsite.

Our first ever whole week away in a new tent miles away from home! (N.Yorks) We had one day of very heavy rainfall but this never effected our pitch and others by the looks, drained very well.
We absolutely loved this camp site, our pitch was large, surrounded by a large hedge which was good for privacy!
New shower blocks which were always very clean and tidy!
Did not venture much into the shop but from what we saw it had most things that you need and not over priced considering you are on a campsite! We used their ice pack services which was very convenient and cheap!
You do need a car to get anywhere-no local pubs in walking distances! Would recommend the 'Sharks Fin' in Mevagessey for fish and chips!
We would definitely go back to this site!
