 Although it was 5 years ago 2017 it was an unforgetable stay on the best ever site we have stayed on in over 40 years of touring.

Could not fault it in any way, the cost was unbelievable for the facilities available, just wish we lived a lot closer it`s quite a journey from Durham.

Would love to visit again.

 We cannot fault this beautiful park at all. Excellent facilities and beautifully clean. The laundry room is spotless and very helpful. We stayed late September so cannot comment on pool or shop fairly. The staff are all very friendly and most helpful. All the shops and facilities you could possibly want are just down the road in St Austell. We had such a lovely time we stayed for three weeks instead of the two we'd booked originally. A very well kept and brilliantly run site we would highly recommend. Several beaches are all within easy distance of site and you are in a brilliant spot to access north south and most of Cornwall.

Our zip broke on our tent and a lovely couple helped us out with tape etc and it didn't affect our lovely holiday.

 ~~BRILLIANT~~

Had 2 weeks here in August, we love this site it has everything the pitches are large and you can pick your own pitch from the map when booking, they are all hedged off too which is lovely. There is a very large play park for the children, also Tennis courts. They have a lovely heated pool and plenty of sunbeds and seating around it. There is a shop/café which is well stocked and the café is very reasonable and they have also now started selling alcohol, so lovely lunches by the pool most days. Also in the pool area is a ping-pong table and pool table (10. 00) Deposit for pool table.

The wardens are lovely and nothing is too much trouble for them, they will level your van and put it on to pitch for you. There are plenty of water and grey waste, The toilet block is very clean and modern but there is only one toilet block for the site, so when they are closed for cleaning between 12-1 you have to use a porta cabin toilet which isn't that nice. The disabled toilet was adequate for me but having to step into where the shower itself is could be a bit awkward and it is in a sort of shed along the walkway to the other toilet block, shop/café and pool so you kind of feel like your out of place stuck in the middle of a path, so I used my own toilet/shower in my van. This could really do with up grading in my opinion. They would of gotten a 10/10 but because of the disabled toilets I would give them a 9/10

All in all a lovely site and would visit again although next time I would take my mobility scooter as my hubby almost had a heart attack pushing me up the hills in my wheelchair.

 Just returned from a 2 week stay at Tregarton park. This is not our first time here and will not be our last. Booking though there web site is great and you can pick what pitch you want and where you want it and will even tell you the size of pitch you have selected. On arrival, booking in is fast and easy and they will even pitch and level your caravan for you (free of charge).

The shop on site is well stocked and they also run a takeaway from inside. The prices are very reasonable and we found ourselves ordering lunch by the pool most days we were there. The pool was nice and warm and our two enjoyed it, but there is not a paddling pool for very young children. Around the pool, there are plenty of sunbeds and chairs and one pool table and ping pong table. The pool table requires a £10 deposit, the ping pong table is free. The site also has a good play park which is closed at 9pm giving the children a natural curfew, but noise levels have never been a problem for us on this site. There is a Tennis Court, but have never used it so can't comment.

All in all, this is a nice site with great wardens and plenty to see and do nearby.

Nights stayed: 9 Travelling as:  Family with older children
Reviewer: Lindilou2013 47 reviews from this member

 We had a wonderful 9 nights on this beautiful site. It is probably the best site we have been too.

Glimpses of the sea can be seen and the whole area is peaceful and relaxing. The site is well maintained, there is always someone from the very helpful team doing something to ensure that it is all kept in tip top condition. Showers and toilets are kept clean. The pool area is lovely, shop well stocked and with prices that do not take advantage of the fact that there isn't another shop for a few miles! The lovely thing about our last morning was being able to order well cooked bacon baps to see us on our long journey home.

Yes, it is a little out of the way so you do have to travel a while to get anywhere but with such delightful countryside it really isn't a problem.

The site is quiet at night.

The welcome is amazing with your caravan being maneuvered into place and levelled without you having to do a thing.

The Gardens of Heligan are just up the road and are well worth a visit as is the Eden Project. Book online for both. You get a 30 day window to use your tickets so are not tied to one day and you get a 10% discount. There are lots of lovely coastal walks nearby and Gorran Haven is a sweet little place and I thoroughly recommend the fish and chip shop there. If you're brave then there is cycling to be had but goodness me they don't call this area Little Switzerland for nothing! My legs are still recovering.

The Clubs have a lot to learn from this site and how it is run and managed.

Thoroughly recommend and we will be back!

Reviewer: JoJo19 7 reviews from this member

 Wow! What a wonderful site. My brother recommended this site as the best he has ever been to. And he used to run a site and camp regularly himself so he should know. Still, I like to make my own assessment and can honestly say he was absolutely right.

The site itself is self contained and off a not overly busy A road. You can choose your pitch when you book using the site map which I really liked. We chose a pitch farthest away from the amenities and play area so it was very quiet. The site takes a mixture of tents and tourers and there are some cottages that can be rented too.

There is a good reasonably stocked and priced shop and a fabulous heated outside pool. You can order coffee at the shop and sit beside the pool with a newspaper keeping an eye on the children in the sunshine. Of which there was plenty when we visited.

There is also a good, self contained play area for children of varying ages which you can camp around if you are so inclined. We preferred a longer walk and a quieter setting although my daughter spent many a happy hour there.

The loos and showers were kept very clean and were modern with plenty of free hot water, even during the peak holiday season. We never had to wait to use them either as there seemed to be plenty even with a full site of people.

There is no club house or restaurant. However you can order reasonably priced takeaway food which we did on a couple of evenings. You can also use your own bar b q.

Aside from the clubhouse/restaurant issue, the only downsides of this site might be that you have to drive to the nearest beach (and pay a kings ransom to park) and there is no real view. But if you are not worried about these things then this is a really lovely site which is well maintained and with extremely friendly owners and staff. Even in peak season it didn't feel hectic. My only mild gripe is that the check out time was 10am. 11am would be much better as despite a very early start and no doubt waking our neighbours we were pushed to get packed up in time and had to deal with the unpleasant stares of the new arrivals (just why do people do that? It really isn't going to help them get on the pitch any quicker, if it's a real issue go get a coffee and chill out, or what about offering to help. Now there's a civilised idea!)

Regardless of what might be minus points for some people it's a truly great site. Just be sure to set your alarm nice and early on pack up day.

Reviewer: Yotanka62 9 reviews from this member

 What a lovely site. Arrived far too early but met by Owners son and advised to come in as pitch vacant. Was directed to pitch and was met there and he reversed the van on for us and levelled it as well. Great start of holiday.

Various kind of pitches from all hard standing to all grass with a mixture in between with half and half. Most level or as near as.

Washrooms one of the best. Cubicle with dressing/drying one end and a shower the other with glass doors, no wet flapping shower curtains. Very clean and inspected many times a day. Powerful showers and always hot water.

Heated Swimming pool with loungers surrounding it plus changing room. Sadly weather not good so we did use. Tennis court was used by a few but not by us so can't comment on it.

Shop on site plus take away. We used both and found them very good. Prices not inflated at all.

Dog field down one end. Grass kept short and dogs could be off lead. Good meeting point it seemed for most of us with doggies.

Highly recommend as can't find fault with anything. You could book for next year at this years prices, just what we did and it seems many others do.

Lovely people and so helpful.

Gave 1star less for location but only due to being a little bit off beaten track and you could not walk to beach, shops etc and have to use the car.

 Have just visited this site for the first time after only booking a week ago (think we may have got a cancellation). We loved it. Swimming pool added bonus and the kids loved spending time in it especially as the weather so warm. Facilities clean, modern. Site well looked after. Our pitch was a good size with plenty of room for awning, kids tent and car. Seems to be a very popular site for returners. Says it all really. Great base for Lost Gardens of Haligan, Mevagissey, St Austell, Goran Haven, Charlestown and the Eden Project.

Reviewer: Nealie3 2 reviews from this member

 This is one of the best sites I have stayed on in many years of Caravanning. The pitches are very spacious and well kept. The family that own it cannot do enough for you and will even pitch and level your caravan for you, great after a long journey. The shop prices are very reasonable as is the take-away food. Mevagissey is 10 minutes away as is Goran Haven. Even at half term when the site was full it was all quiet before 11 a. M. This site is a cracker and very reasonably priced. Will define toy go back!

Reviewer: Rcpilot 2 reviews from this member

 What a site this is, firstly, the staff are exceptional the grounds are well laid out and the owners son even helps you manoeuver your caravan onto the pitch by hitching it up to his jeep. They have hard standings as well as all grass pitches for tents etc. There are plenty of drinking water taps and waste water disposal points and the shower blocks are very very clean there is even a baby bath cubical and a large launderette all very clean and looking the bees knees.

The walled swimming pool is fantastic the water is heated and there is ample sun beds and chairs to relax in there is even an area with tables and large sun shades where you can eat ordered meals and drinks from the shop come take away, just like being around the pool in the Mediterranean, the kids can play on the provided amusements round the pool, the site also has kids areas where they can play ball games etc and even a tennis court, and there are 2 changing facilities should you need to change out of your wet costume. If you do not wish to go into the pool area there are tables and sun shades around the shop area and all what you order is waitress served. This site is very cheap to the extent that they do not charge for electricity at certain times of the year. There are plenty of attractions around the area and plenty of supermarkets and plenty of local shops and beaches are nearby plenty of little villages with local pubs should you need a drink. One place I would not recommend is the Lost Gardens of Helagan it is an expensive walk in the woods very steep up and down The site is very easy to get onto and the only drawback (for us ) it is so far away, should the sun shine as it did for us just about the whole of our 3 week stay you will get a very lovely holiday this site has everything and you will enjoy yourself even if you do not venture out of the gates.

We have been all over this country on caravan holidays and we have yet to come across another site that matches up to its standards, if it was only a few hours down the road then we would be going back time after time after time such is the nature of this lovely site, try it and see you will not be disappointed especially if you are of the older generation go early on in the year where there will be very few children about.
