 Nice site with great loo block and decent size pitch with space for vehicle table chairs etc off road. Lights around site give good light for toilet trips at night, shop on site for food milk bread and other essentials. Staff v friendly and site being upgraded constantly - now with wi-fi connection at a price

This is an elevated site and the wind does catch the tents v easily causing a bit of the 'flaps' also the perimeter road needs a few pot holes filling. There is a lovely footpath through the fields which leads to Tesco and down to Padstow - although can get a bit muddy after the rain.

 Just spent a few days at this site. Very friendly, very clean and excellent walking access to Padstow. Having gone there on the moorbike this time we didn't use electric etc and £10 a night gave excellent value for money. We will definitely be going back with the big tent to enjoy another holiday.

 We spent three nights here, at the end of Whitsun week. We had an EHU pitch and found that there was plenty of room for our Montana 6 tent, extension and car.

The site was well maintained with modern, clean showers. These were large enough for an adult and two children. I never had to wait for a shower but then again the site wasn't full, pitches were emptying as the Bank Holiday week came to an end. The first time we went to do the washing up the water was only luke warm, we didn't encounter this problem again, so I think this was just bad timing on our part. The shop appeared to stock the usual range of camping paraphernalia but we tended to stop at Tescos on our way back to the site - I did go on an emergency wine buying sortie to the site shop one night and was dissapointed, so definitely recommend stocking up on this!

We walked to Padstow, using the footpath, and our children aged 7 and nearly 4 managed this fairly easily. I saw other families with young children use the path but can't remember seeing any buggies. It was across farmland with three stiles to climb over before reaching Tescos and then it was downhill all the way to Padstow (unfortunately uphill coming back!).

The staff were friendly, efficient and polite, giving us useful advice about local beaches when asked. The site was within 5-10 minutes drive of some great family beaches, all with parking, toilets,cafes or pubs close by. The weather, when we stayed, was excellent so we didn't venture any further afield.

There was a small, not overly exciting playground, but it seemed to be used by children of quite a range of ages. There is no clubhouse or gamesroom, but the children were quite happy using the playground or playing racket and ball games (cricket and football were only really possible when a couple of nearby pitches had vacated) or just playing with friends they had made on site.

All in all we would recommend this site to others and stay there again ourselves.

 We visited Padstow Touring Park in the Whitsun week & spent 9 lovely nights there. The site is quiet, very clean and in a very good location, with a nice walk into Padstow. We had one of the kernow pitches which was probably the biggest pitch we have ever had and you get your own private toilet & shower block, but the shower block near our pitch was very clean & nice any way. The staff on site were very friendly & pleasant especially Pete the warden.

My only negatives points are the waste disposal point was the other end of the site and the fact the shop didn't sell newspapers which from a business point I couldn't get my head round, but I will definitely return to this site.

Reviewer: Vanuata 3 reviews from this member

 We were so lucky with the weather so a positive slant on the site is to be expected! Wash facilities away from the main entrance were always clean and we never had to queue. Facilities nearer the main entrance did appear more dated though owners kept them well maintained. Pitches were a little tighter than C&CC regulations but manageable.
The site as a whole was kept very clean and planting really complimented it. As with last posting, beware the footpath to Padstow, whilst dry while we were there, it would be treacherous when wet. Padstow really lovely and you are within easy reach of most Cornish attractions.
One Negative, we didn't realise dogs were allowed on site, which on the whole live and let live, but after you've cleaned dog poo from your shoes a couple of times it does wear thin. In the staffs favour when we complained about it , they were very quick to deal with it.

 We stayed on this site during the good weather in May 09, we were concerned, prior to arriving, as the majority of the country had endured heavy rain, that the pitch would be soft and muddy under foot, however the drainage measures the site had introduced had given us a perfect pitch, flat, large and dry.

The toilet and shower blocks are kept very clean and are finished to a high standard with hot water available at all times, however there are negative points, the site shop is expensive although freshly baked goods offered on a daily basis are delicious and worth the extra.

The site has access to a foot path which leads to Padstow but it should be noted that it is unsuitable for push chairs and does require the user to be confident underfoot as it can be narrow, uneven with several stiles to cross . The foot path was used by us on several occasions and I would not use the path after dark or during heavy rain.

The bus service stops outside the site ( on demand ) which will take you into Padstow, however keep an eye on return times as they stop early evening and we found that taxis in Padstow can be hard to obtain ( the pub landlord called five before one agreed to pick us up after a forty minute wait )

It should also be noted that there is no local pub or take away within reasonable walking distance, so there is no nipping off for a quick pint unless it involves the bus or car!.

 Have stayed on this site a few times over the past few years and it just keeps getting better and better. Fits my 30ft m/home on with no problems at all. The new heated shower block is one of the best I have seen on a campsite. After speaking to the owners it looks as if this winter is going to be another busy one, with more improvements and new pitches coming in 2009.

Looking forward to returning in the spring to see how it's all going. Keep up the good work!

Ps The footpath to padstow is a real bonus.

Reviewer: Biggasyoulike 2 reviews from this member

 This was our first site for a full week away and it was fantastic! Friendly greeting with explanation (albeit at a pace) of the the site, plentiful and clean facilities (unlike recommended sites we have experienced since) and close proximity to Padstow. Liked the size of pitches which are marked out - you don't feel on top of each other unlike other sites since this one!

Lovely walk into town or shorter to Tesco for essentials. Reasonable road network to get to most other places in Cornwall or west Devon for that matter. Kids loved the park which generally felt very safe for them to play in. Shop stocks most things you'll need but can be pricey (check out nearby mini-Tesco if you have the time!)

This site has set a very high standard which will be difficult for others to achieve. Will certainly be back (just hope the weather is as kind to us again) and most people ignore this review! Oh & Rick Stein's chippy is well worth a visit but be ready to queue - Bon appetit, Ricy!

Reviewer: TWOTWINS 1 review from this member

 We have visited this park several times and have always received a warm welcome from friendly staff. The facilities have been improved with the addition of extra toilet and shower facilities, a new laundry room and extra washing up areas. The toilets etc. were always clean and tidy and the shop well stocked.

The only problem we experienced was a very wet holiday leading to our awning and those of our neighbouring pitches becoming somewhat waterlogged, due to inadequate drainage on the field, however we were informed that this was hopefully going to be rectified over the winter period, so watch this space!

The pitches are of an excellent size, we have always booked a superior pitch to gain that extra room.

We would highly recommend this site for its' easy access to padstow and many beautiful beaches nearby. Hope you have better luck with the weather!

Reviewer: Rebeccah809 4 reviews from this member

 My partner and I and our 8 year old (& 1 dog) have just returned from Padstow Touring Park for 1 week.

Fantastic park, very well laid out, with plenty of privacy and plenty of room on each plot. (We had a standard plot, the superior plots are even bigger)

Nice clean shower/toilet block. Showers are warm and very well maintained.

There is a well stocked shop (however quite pricey). But Tesco is only a short walk/drive away.

Our 8 year old absolutely loved the play area - so a thumbs up there.

All in all a nice, peaceful, small site, ideal for a family.

Will definitely return!
