 Trevaylor is everything a camping/caravan/ holiday home base should be. The washrooms and public facilities are excellent and immaculate. The pitches are sufficiently spaced to guarantee privacy. The Bar, beer and food are amazing and very welcome on a wet evening. The owners, Charlie and Michelle are a delight and their enthusiasm will leave you smiling.
The bus stops right out side the site, St Just is a short, but up-hill walk away.
The Queens Arms is 500yds away with more good food and beer. But book well in advance as it gets very busy.

Our favourite campsite, as we don't have kids we always visit outside of the school holidays and have always found there to be plenty of room. The toilets and showers are kept clean, the grass is regularly cut, and there are some hard standings. Michelle and Charlie and the kids are lovely people and we are always welcomed warmly. There is a bar on site and the food and beer is good, and there are a number of pubs nearby, we have found the Trewellard Arms to be most welcoming. We will keep coming back to this site.

We have just returned from a 10 day visit to this site. We were very disappointed. The toilet facilities were inadequate for the size of the site. The showers, whilst kept quite clean, were dated. There was no personal cubicle. When using the shower cubicle, which was push button & lasted a few seconds, the water splashed thro onto ones clothes & shoes. If the next door shower was being used you were splashed by that water as well. The bacon butty was nothing to write home about, microwaved bacon on a bap. Basically the site is rather rough around the edges, & whilst the grass is kept down the water supply taps needed tidying up & the fire points were quite unsightly, both covered by long grass & weeds. The plus points are that although there is no designated dog walk, access to fields & the coastal path is very close by. St Just is a short drive away (5mins) not walkable unless going via coast path as there is no pavement & traffic wizzes by. It has good facilities, We enjoyed a lovely meal at the Kings Arms & fab fish & chips from the chippy. We also enjoyed an excellent meal at the North Inn which is a couple of miles away. Although we love the area we would not return to this site

We stayed here last week and it was a last minute booking. We were really lucky to get a pitch as most sites in this are were fully booked.
The site was really easy to find, and no trouble with accessing it with a trailer/caravan. We were allocated pitch 45 which was just large enough for our tent, but did not leave much room for sitting out or for the dogs to be tethered.
This was the only downside to the site as far as we could work out, as all the pitches were close together without a lot of room between them. Even allowing for peak season, if you have a large tent, you may struggle. Non electric pitches had much more space, and we were offered free use of a freezer to chill ice blocks.
Fantastic elements:
1. The owners. They could not help enough. Even lent us an EHU when ours failed to work.
2. The location. Short stroll to SW Coast Path and easily walkable to Cape Cornwall (if you are mobile and can cope with hills). I am not fit and both I and our arthritic dog coped fine.
3. Showers were excellent, plenty of hot water and good water pressure.
Minor issues:
1. Pitches on small side
2. Very busy/noisy in evenings (but probably due to peak season - still rowdy at 11pm, despite 10pm curfew)
3. Wash facilities were not adequate for number of guests(only 3 available) -would not be an issue outside of peak season.
4. Nowhere to exercise or toilet dogs without going off site, however plenty of walks and fields nearby.
We would definitely return, but not in peak season again. Thank you for a fabulous couple of days, we really did enjoy it

Excellent stay ! Site is perfect with shop and bar on site serving really tasty food compliments to the chef. Toilets and shower facilities really clean. Staff really helpful and pleasant. Lovely views from site with a lot of nice walks around. Very dog friendly although may benefit from dog area where dogs can roam off lead. Will visit again without a doubt and would really recommend a visit you won't be disappointed.

Charlie and Michelle - so friendly owners and welcoming. Four very pleasant nights at this lovely campsite - spotless facilities, welcoming restaurant - great steak/chips and a chicken curry. Good ale. Easy walk to the cliff and the wonderful views. The bus stop is right outside the entrance to the campsite and we took the double decker to Penzance for the day and walked into Newlyn. We were lucky with the weather which always helps. But definitely will be going back to Trevaylor - recommended for very good walking and a quiet site.

I almost don’t want to write a review for this fantastic place, it’s so lovely I want to keep it all to myself. But that wouldn’t be at all fair to Charlie and Michelle and all the staff who work so hard to make this one of the best campsite we have ever stayed at, they never seem to stop! We stayed last year in one of the static caravans and enjoyed it so much that when it came to deciding where to camp with our large tent there was only one place we wanted to go, Trevaylor.
We booked a non-electric pitch in the summer camping field. This was a good sized, flat pitch that was well maintained and had a super view of St Just.
The small shop is well stocked (lovely bacon and you can order fresh bread for the next day) and for a donation to the local air ambulance you can freeze your ice packs and borrow some while yours are freezing down.
The restaurant/bar opens at six and serves excellent, well priced food and great ales (the sticky toffee pudding is out of this world!) You can even charge your mobile while you eat thanks to the clever rack in the corner, very handy and a great excuse for an extra pint!
The facilities are always clean, the site is very, well maintained. The new, free showers were lovely and hot and the laundry/washing up area was always very clean.
There is a small play area for the children, and our two had great fun making new friends and meeting up with some old ones.
The coastal path is a short walk away, with some breath-taking views.
The site is on a regular bus route, the bus stop is just outside the site.
The beautiful town of St Just is a short 5 minute drive away. This has quite a few amenities, Co-op, post office, doctor surgery, pubs, shops, a superb bakery and an excellent butcher - We recommend their BBQ packs.
The nearest beach is Gwenver Beach, which is located just under one mile north-east of Sennen Cove. Quieter than Sennen Beach, it is a superb surfing beach and has a lifeguard service from Spring Bank Holiday to the end of September. Dogs are allowed if kept under control.
We had such a good time we stayed for an extra two nights. Many thanks to Charlie, Michelle and all the staff for another memorable stay.

Shhhh. Don't tell anyone. I want to keep it a secret.
Just come back from a very pleasant and relaxing stay at Trevaylor. It's a nice little site with all the things you need for a getaway, and a really good location for visiting the area. I was lucky with the weather which you can't do much about, but it certainly comes across as a very friendly and cosy site. Toilet block was spotless and free showers are warm. Electric supply was good, with me being able to borrow an extension lead as well, and the bar and food was good. On site shop carries all the basics, including a freezer blockfridge / freezer. Lovely owners Michelle and Charlie. Really nice people

Great site, good access and good walks. EHU.
Owners are extremely friendly and pleasant. Some hardstandings but most on grass, with large pitches. The nearest beach is an Sennen Cove.
It is worth noting that whilst other sites in the area seemed full this one was half full whilst we were there, so come to this one.
The shop seemed good for a campsite.
The only negative seemed to be the prices in the restaurant, which were expensive for such an establishment in our opinion.
The pub down the road serves a good pint.

Recently enjoyed a week's holiday at Trevaylor. My wife and I stayed in a static caravan so our review of the site is on this basis.
On arrival we found our caravan had been supplied with complimentary milk, Cornish shortbread and fresh flowers.
We were impressed by these thoughtful touches.
These touches turn out to be a reflection of the site owners (Charlie and Michelle) generous and considerate approach.
While we were there Michelle had her birthday. Her two children had made a cake for her to celebrate. Guests in the bar / restaurant were given a piece of the cake. This was a lovely gesture which remains long in the memory.
The site itself is a quiet well maintained site in an outstanding location. There is a bar and restaurant on site serving good food at reasonable prices.
The site is located in Truthwall just outside Botallack. The south west coastal path is about half a mile from the site and affords spectacular views of the dramatic coast line. Especially the section which overlooks the Crowns engine houses.
There is a bus stop outside the site. So travel by public transport is convenient and easy.
In summary we thoroughly enjoyed our holiday at this site and would love to go back.
