 This was our first camping visit to Cornwall and we were made to feel very welcome as soon as we arrived. Communication with the owner was very good prior to our visit. Campsite very spacious and peaceful as there were no children on the site at the time.
The shop was very well stocked compared to some other sites we have been on. The facilities were very clean and well laid out. Beach and pub within easy driving or walking distance. We have already decided to go back in September (this was decided very quickly after we had arrived).
Even though we don't have young children the play area was quite good. We also like the idea that you had to use a swipe card to get in and out of the site which meant the owners could keep control on who was on the site. We had a great holiday and can't wait to return again in September.

We can honestly say this is the best site we've ever been on, it is well designed and thought out. Friendly and helpful staff, excellent facilities and very clean. Well stocked shop and a cafe also, although we were too early in the month to use it (opens end of May).
Large field to let your dogs off but as we don't have children can't comment on play area. To top it all the scenery is awesome and only 1 mile from Bude. Go see for yourself you won't be disappointed. One thing £2 p.N is a bit much for a dog other than that highly recommended, keep it up guys.

We visited this site at the end of August after a very late cancellation from our original destination! Fortunately for us this campsite only opened this year and had plenty of availability.
I must say I agree with the previous reviews:
Excellent Site
Clean showers and toilets
Lovely play area for the kids
Close to a good beach (that allows dogs)
The on-site shop was fabulous, stocking locally produced goods (burgers / sausages / chops etc) really nice to see!
There is a nice big field next to the site to let your dog have a good run.
The site has amazing views of the surrounding countryside and you can see miles of rolling hills. As the site is new then there is no established planting and therefore you can be exposed to the weather. This is the only downfall.
The staff are very helpful.
We really enjoyed our stay here and would definitely return.

Super site. We stayed on one of their super pitches which included own water tap, drains and hook up which was worth paying the extra money for.Lovely clean toilets and free hot showers and hairdryer (I am very fussy about toilets and showers).Cost £4 for a washing machine token and £1 = 30 min drier token (you need at least 2 tokens to dry washing) so could add up to being a bit expensive if your a big family.
The only downside for us was that it was
Quite a dangerous walk down to Widemouth Bay on a road with no footpath and the bus stop was nowhere near site so had to take motorhome into Bude to get shopping.
Overall an excellent site and would recommend to all.

We visited at the beginning of august and on arrival we greeted with a very friendly manner and he made our daughter feel special by knowing her name. As it was quiet he gave us a choice of pitchs which we really appreciated.We found all the facilities were excellent very clean and a plesure to use. We used the cafe on site once the breakfast was supurb and well worth the money. Our daughter made full use of the play area and had lots of fun We would recommend this site to anyone and we will return in the future.Many thanks for a great holiday

The below comments are certainly true. We spent a week here at the beginning of August. The campsite is clean, well tended and very well laid out. Facilities are fantastic; toilets, showers, family bathrooms and laundry/washing up. There are two separate blocks at different ends of the site. The keeper/manager is attentive and keen to ensure everything is up to standard.
When we arrived the site was quiet but we stayed in the side field. The ground here is not even and got quite boggy in the rain. My main criticism (and only) is that because the site is new, much of the vegetation is not fully grown to act as barriers. We were extremely exposed to the wind and it was quite bad being relatively high up. Anyone visiting Cornwall would be aware of the windy weather anyway. However, if you are looking for quiet, windy free nights this is not the best site for you. We had some very disturbing nights in the tent and it was difficult to open up the tent and appreciate the beautiful surroundings during the day because of the wind.
We would recommend this site because it was brilliant, our kids loved it. However, we would not return for a few years - until the trees have grown - as it is (or certainly seemed when we visited) too exposed.

Wow! What a site! From the friendly welcome, to the pristine facilities, this site, to me, is like Mary Poppins, practically perfect in every way!
The site is brand new, and therefore not too busy, but the pitches are well spaced out, and well tended. We stayed in the overflow field, which is a little rougher ground, but has four electric hook-ups. In addition to this, there is a tent field.
The toilet blocks are brand new and there are excellent disabled facilities. I was a little surprised that there was no hand soap in the blocks, but we mentioned this to Jerry, the owner, and pump dispensers appeared. The laundry is clean and well cared for, and there are two family bathrooms, should you need a long hot soak.
The site is very peaceful, with a fantastic playground for the children, and the views of the surrounding countryside are wonderful.
We sampled the food in the cafe on site, on two occasions, and found it to be both delicious, and filling, just what you need after a day body boarding!
The nearest beach is Widemouth Bay, the surf is good here, it has lifeguards on duty, and a cafe and shop, but is not the commercial bawdy beach you would get further west.
Tintangal, and Boscastle are nearby, and are very interesting places to visit. The nearest town is Bude, a very chilled out surfin' dude / dudette kind of place, with two more good surfing beaches, lovely cafes / restaurants and some interesting shops, as well as a Large Morrisons for all your food / drink essentials.
If you want a site with marauding teenagers, and drunken chav types, choose a site with a pool, games room, bar etc. If you want a site that you can sit and relax with your family over a bbq and a beer after a days surfing, then this is the site for you!
I will be returning to Widemouth Fields.
