 If you want peace and quite then this is the place. Site is set surrounded by fantastic countryside on 3 sides and a seaview in the distance on the other. I have never seen such fantastic grass, the site was spotless and welcome was lovely.

We took two young children and we didn't want a place with a pool or entertainment as we more used the site as a based to visit the beaches in teh area (that are the best in the country). Both kids loved the play ares and plenty of space for their game of football.

Showers and toilets were clean.

I never thought I would say this about a campsite but the hot water was too hot, in the showers you had just one button and it was too hot for me and my youngest which was a pain. My only other suggestion to the owners would be to let the hot taps run in the washing up sinks for longer. Very hot water but you have to keep pressing the button every 2 seconds.

We cant wait to stay there again next year this was perfect for what we wanted. (Helped that we had 2 weeks of fantastic weather!)

 We stayed here for a planned 1 night stop in St Agnes.

The site is absolutely immaculate. Very well tended and that extended to the facilities too. My OH and I were in agreement that the shower/toilet area was the best we had encountered in the UK so far. There were lovely touches too such as fresh flowers. The washing up area was spotless too with very hot water.

However, for us personally we found the site rather clinical. Yes having an open site is lovely but it just felt too barren and cold for our tastes.

Also the road was noisy at night and as although the walk to St Agnes is not far at all the road is absolutely treacherous particularly at night. If you choose this site for location for perhaps an after dinner pint please be warned that the road is busy and dangerous - there is not a path all the way.

For this reason we decided to move on after the one night as we like to have a village location to walk to safely.

 We have been coming to this site for 6 years now, and I cannot fault it, even when it pours down with rain.

Pam the owner is very friendly and helpful. The site consists of two fields the first has mainly caravans and mobile homes with some tents, and the second has mainly tents.

The toilet/ shower block is always spotlessly clean, The site has two great playgrounds for the kids, as well as a laundry room, a dog walking field, and a small shop where you can get milk and eggs.

Every morning a small van from the local newsagent comes onto the site where you can buy things from newspapers to toothpaste.

The site does have electric hook up and if you find that your cable does not reach Pam the owner is always happy to lend you a longer one.

It is a quiet and lovely site for you if you just want to relax, and you will probably come home having made new friends, As a lot of us who stay here come back every year and will always stop and say hello to new faces.

The village of St Agnes is but a short walk away and St Agnes has 2 brilliant beaches just a few minuets drive away, the main beach of Trevaunance does have lifeguards, as well as an old ruined harbour, and some brilliant rock pools where the kids will find some excellent wildlife, Although you can take dogs onto the beach they must be on a lead.

The walks along the coastal paths are breathtakingly beautiful, with views of the Atlantic and the stunning engine houses which are dotted all along the paths. A trip into Truro is well worth the twenty minuet drive with it's stunning Cathedral and cobbled roads.

This site is excellent for everyone from people on their own or those with families. This is one if not the best site in the country to stay.

 We only ended up on Presingoll because our favourite site was full; having said that, it was the only site that was

I have used Presingoll before and it is well situated for touring near St Agnes. It is just outside the town so the use of a car is necessary

The pitches are of very generous size. The shower blocks are clean and the laundry facilities are first rate - the dryers actually 'dry'

The lady running the site went out of her way to lend us an extension cable for the hook-up as our 25m cable was insufficient to get onto the power point.

There is a playground area but how long these things will hold a chlid's attention I wouldn't know.

There is milk and few other bits and pieces available but most people will shop in St Agnes or the surrounding area. There is also a communal Microwave available and that could be a handy thing for reheating a take-away meal.

 This site is simply fantastic and it ticks all the boxes on my list of how a campsite should be.

Firstly the owner Pam is great, friendly and makes you feel so welcome during our stay. It was Royal Wedding weekend, and although I'd rather have sawn my own arm off than have anything to do with the whole occasion, Pam had organised a tea party for all guests which I thought was nice.

Facilities were very clean, practical rather than outstanding, but there was everything you needed including a microwave and two freezers. There were also numerous books, board games and bats and balls etc for you to borrow, just some more ways you were made to feel you were more than just a paying customer.

Pitches were large, level and well spaced out and most appeared to have hook up. The site is pretty big and I could see that it would never feel too overcrowded even in the height of summer.

St Agnes itself is a fabulous little places, its still very Cornish but feels as if its avoided being too affected by tourism. There are just a few very nice pubs and restaurants and a greengrocers, butchers and fishmongers so please don't do as we did and stock up at the nearest big super market, wait until you get there.

Apart from the fact that the wind was a bit strong and quite chilly on occasions, so take a wind break, I really can't praise Presingol enough.

 Spent a fantastic week at this brilliant camp.

Owner is very pleasant and helpful, very clean camp, level pitches and good ampage on hook ups! The showers, toilets, laundry and wash up areas are kept immaculate! Milk and Eggs available from reception, two large freezers for Ice Packs and food in reception, plus an abundance of leaflets on attractions, beaches etc. Two play parks for kids.

Very quiet, had no problems with noise at night. The village of St Agnes is lovely with all the necessitys such as post office, a spar and a costcutters, fantastic local butchers, local green grocers selling fresh and locally grown produce. Several pubs, restaurants, surf shops etc.

No pound shops or cheap and nasty gift shops! Hooray! The drive/walk down to the beach is quite steep, but well worth it! The cove is beautiful, lovely sandy beach, not too busy! Lot's of rock pools and small caves for exploring! Great Waves for body boarding and surfing, lifeguards on duty until around 6pm.

We visited many surrounding towns and villages, Truro Cathedral, A great day out to Falmouth - park and float was fabulous only £15 for a car and up to seven passengers, cheaper if only 2 people (includes parking and ferry threw the harbour to the town), go to Harbour Lights Restaurant on docks Fantastic food and generous portions! Maritime Museum is a must, we paid £25 for family ticket which lasts for 12 months!

Avoid 'Portreath' it's grubby and grotty and reminded us of Rhyl! AAAHHH! only good thing about Porteath is it has a good harbour for fishing off at high tide.

Perranporth and Newquay are slightly better if you like busier places! Reasonably priced fishing trips and seal trips from Newquay harbour.

We had a really great time and would highly recommend this campsite to anyone who enjoys a quiet relaxing holiday that is not too far from the beach! Lot's of little coves with great beaches if you willing to drive around an look for them.

There is no bar, club or arcade on this site which is great! Just what we wanted. We will definitely be back!

 Revisited this site many times and it only gets better each time,the site is spotless as are all the facilities. They've thought of almost everything you could need and provided it,freezers for ice packs food etc, small library, toys for children to lend, shop for milk eggs etc, regular visits from newspaper delivery and chip van.

So close to all the lovely beaches and tourist attractions. The washroom facilities are clean and excellent value for money,pitches are very big and the cost of staying is really cheap, going back next year for sure!

 Spent 7 nights here, great holiday. Level site with huge pitches. Owners are great and go out of there way to ensure your stay is a good one, shown to pitch on arrival. Showers free and always hot, there is a family/disabled shower available. Also baby change room. Laundry room, Dishwashng and wet suit wash area all available.

Milk and eggs sold on site. Our 4 year old loved the play area and made lots of friends. Local newsagent visits each day with papers/magazines and sweets.

Too many beaches to mention, you don't have to go far for a beach! SW coast path close by also, St Agnes head is just stunning. St Agnes about a mile with a few shops/pubs and restaurants. Ideal location for going just about anywhere in Cornwall and only 2-3 miles from A30. Truro about 8 miles away with everything you need.

 Just back from week in Cornwall and stayed for 3 nights here.

Immaculate very well run site.

Not too busy plenty of room for everyone never a wait for showers etc.

My son particularly enjoyed the play equipment and made lots of friends whilst we there.

Milk available to buy on site and seems to be good facilities for those in tents.

We all went everywhere on bikes but even though this site close to 4 or 5 beaches one less than 2 miles away it was exhausting due to all the hills! Also this site is next to the main road into St Agnes so quite busy and no footpath if you wanted to walk.

St Agnes has 3 of its own beaches try to visit them all very beautiful 2 of them down Very Very steep hills not a prob going but you will feel it going back up.

The little town itself has a spar and budgens (i think it was) plus other shops, pub, eating places, surf shop etc.

Very nice area would be a good camp site base if your plan is to visit other places in Cornwall too.

Reviewer: Loll1 13 reviews from this member

 Spent 10 days at this site. Pitches are massive and nice green area in centre so not over looked. Toilets and showers are kept spotless. 20 min walk into St Agnes (you can go along road or there is a footpath opposite Pessignol barns) which has a few pubs and shops for all your needs. Most of the pubs welcome dogs which is a bonus for us, no sitting outside when it gets a bit chilly. Good base for exploring Cornwall, although this side of the coast is a bit windy.
