 In no particular order:

Make sure you have enough cash on you if you intend to pay for your pitch on arrival.

Using switch or credit cards they want to charge you £5 for each transaction. This also includes meals in the restaurant etc.

Also no refunds at this site so once you have paid that is it.

There is a cash machine on site but this was out of order. The other nearest one is apparently at the post office down the road.

All the campsites on the way down had 'SITE FULL' displayed but there were plenty of available pitches here. Was that a sign????

Unhelpful and unfriendly staff as previously mentioned by other people. They had not heard of us when we arrived although it had been provisionally booked

Washers were £4. Dont waste your money on the dryers as after 30 minutes it was hardly any different. Two dryers in the main block and only one of these worked.

Non electric tent pitch - ground was very hard. Pitch size was good.

Did not use any facilities on site - did not want to pay anymore money out and we had no kids with us.

The 'First and Last Inn', a short walk from the site had a good menu, very friendly staff/atmosphere with good portions.

Booked 2 nights but stayed for one. We were given a key for the shower/toilet block near the Wild Camping area. After checking out the toilets (no soap or hand drying facilities) and shower in this block we went back to reception and got 'upgraded' as we put it at no cost (needed a different key) to the main shower block which was better.

No power points for personal hair dryers etc in womans toilets. Need tokens for campsite provided hairdryers in the toilets (available from reception at more cost).

Sennen Cove has a nice beach.

 Just spent a lovely weekend at this site in a beautiful location. Key toilet block clean but why the key!

Small shop, lovely pool spent a couple of hours here and kids loved it. Great out door play area but indoor play area is charged! £2 a child £1. 30 an adult but a cup of coffee is offered. We were disapointed with this being a charged facility as it didn't say on website.

Walked to Landsend about 20mins.

Pub 2 mins walk but didn't use.

An area of outstanding beauty so worth it if you don't use indoor play area!

 We really liked the site and the facilities. The keyholder showers were very good but there was almost always a queue, as the main shower block didn't seem to have any hot water! The pool was excellent.

The bar had a good selection of food, but what let the site down for me was the unfriendliness of the staff. Downright rude on occasions!

A real shame, as the postion is fantastic - I could walk to Lands End every evening. Sennen Cove is a very good beach and it's a lovely area with lot's to visit and see. But until the service improves I won't be going back.

 We arrived at Sea View early and was allowed onto our pitch at 10.00am which was a big bonus after a 11 hour drive!

The site is beautiful with excellent landscaping and is on the whole very presentable and well kept. Pitch was a fairly small one though. Not much space for the car after a medium sized caravan and awning went up, but this didn't cause a problem.

The "keyholder" showers were superb - very powerful and just the right temperature. The showers in the same building as the toilets / washing up area etc were dismal though - go stick your head under a dripping cold outdoor tap instead!

The bar was very nice although there was a karaoke act on who didn't seem to enjoy singing (?) and left early on a couple of occaisions. The kids play area, whilst being equally nice closed at 10.00pm prompt which is ok, but with little or no warning - you'll need miners lamps to finish your game of pool or retrieve your children!

The ten-pin bowling area looks immaculate although I'm not surprised as it closes at 7.00pm and the entire complex closes early on Tuesdays and Thursdays - PLEASE SORT THIS OUT SEA VIEW or do you're staff double up as Lands End stewards on fireworks nights???

Outsoor swimming pool - lovely on nice days, well kept!

Kids play area - very good!

On the whole, a nice looking site. It just didn't appear to be well managed or run. Staff were OK, but not falling over themselves to help.

If you need a base to allow you to be close to the fantastic beach at Sennen Cove or tour around, fine. Also try First and Last Inn, White Sands Surf Lodge and the St Buryan Inn (fantastic food)

If you're planning on spending amounts of time actually on the site using the (indoor) facilities - think twice and take plenty of board games!

 It was a sad day when I returned to this site last summer(2006) What was once a very affordable pleasant campsite has been turned into a very expensive eyesore.
I first stayed here in 1997 and went back again in 98, whilst walking the coastal path, then returned again with the family in 2004/05 It was an excellent place situated just down the road from the First and Last pub, and the excellent Sennen beach not to far away.
Facilities were not fantastic, but good enough.
So what's changed? Well for starters they have added a huge games area which has to payed for before the kids can use. The trouble is I don't think this justifies the huge increase in prices per night it now costs to stay here.
The staff were unfriendly when we made enquires about staying last year and when we found out the price, well we made quick exit.
A classic example of why change things if they don't need changing.it's not supposed to be a five star hotel just camping!
My days of staying at this campsite are long gone.

Reviewer: Majik 23 3 reviews from this member

 The staff we not helpful or friendly in anyway. I booked in advance only to be told on arrival that they had never heard of me. The showers were 25p for 4 mins which was actually two. The ground was so hard I ended up leaving half on my tent pegs because I couldn't get them out. The owners double booked my pitches not once but twice. So if you don't mind having to guard what you're paid for, it's worth it. Everything had a price, from the children's play area??? to the swimming pool. I have no problem with paying but when you you pay £80 for two pitches for 3 days and you have to fight off other people to keep, you don't expect to pay for extras such as the basics.

 Just came back from 5 nights staying at Sea View Caravan park Sennen Lands End Cornwall.  What a fantastic site with such friendly people.  The improvements are nearly finished with a lovely bar area contempory furnishings and a lovely modern feel.  The pool is not yet finished but I would advise contacting the owners if you want the pool open.

The only complaint I would make is that we were made to wait until 4.30p.m. on the day of arrival when it was clear that there were only a handful of us to book in.  The caravan was ready so there was no need for us to wait, I really don't understand why they do this.

The pub just up the road sold lovely food and it was a really old country pub with lots of history.  There is quite a walk to Sennen Cove but it is a lovely off road stroll but not suitable for buggys of the not so able.  Lands End is only a short walk away with stunning views.

I would reccommend this park to all types of people.  The walks were fantastic and you have to get off the beaten track to appreciate the full beauty of the area.  We saw seals playing in a nearby bay and I am told dolphins are also spotted.

 I have just returned from a few days stay at Sea View, Sennen. To be honest I was very disappointed and had this not been a Sun Newspaper deal I would have seriously complained, although I have had no previous problems with these offers. The caravan we stayed in was usually £250 a week at this time of year.

We stayed in a static caranvan which was quite unclean, it had all sorts of hairs and bits in the carpet, as well as mould patches in the shower and what appeared to be black mould patches on some of the walls. There was only the gas fire in the front room for heat, which you obviously can't leave on at night, so we woke up to see our breath and I'm sure it was actually warmer outside!

There is a launderette, but after putting £3 in the drier to dry my items on all settings and it not actually getting hot or drying them at all, I complained and the only response was 'Oh well it worked on Friday' No offer of refund or anything.

There was also building work, which started about 8am, which was not advised previously. This is where the pool area was, so not sure if this is being rebuilt or replaced by more statics.

It is in a beautiful area and only a minute or so from Lands End, there is a pub nearby and a shop on site, which is only open sometimes (although this is probably due to the time of year).

 Arrived at the site 7 hours after leaving home on a hot sticky August afternoon. What a surprise to find a fantastic swimming pool. Site was very well maintained, with some landscaped pitches. Children were well catered for with a huge play area with swings, trampolines, ping pong, climbing frames etc. Main toilet and shower blocks clean. Only fault to be found with the site was that the freezer and fridge could do with being larger and that the cost of £4 to use the washing machine was a bit steep. Overall great site, friendly staff, safe for children to roam and play. Fantastic location, 1 mile to Lands End and Sennen Cove.

This is the last campsite in England - go any further and you'll get wet.I have used this site many times. The owners are in the process of terracing the plots and they are now beginning to look really good. The owners are making a terrific effort to provide a wonderful campsite.
There are statics to hire and plenty of space for both Caravans and Motorhomes.
People who wish to camp are not neglected and have areas where they can pitch with wonderful views towards the west.
The shop on site seems to be better provisioned than many in the West Country. The prices are generally reasonable. All too often as a camper you are hostage to a site shop and you will be charged far more than usual.
There is a swimming pool and a play area.
There is also a dog-walk area. I wish that other sites would provide the same.
There is excellent surfing in Sennan itself and there are some wonderful walks in the area. You can also take the plane over to the Scillys for a day trip from Lands End aerodrome.
The worst thing in the area is Lands End itself. How we could allow the crass developement there beggars the imagination. I thought that only our cousins across the Pond were capable of showing such appalingly bad taste.
The only gripe about the site is that there are never enough toilet facilities. The ones in October were badly sign posted and fairly unpleasant.
