This small campsite on the Lizard Peninsula offers a wonderfully relaxed and family-focused atmosphere, with welcoming hosts Mike and Liz creating a charming environment for guests. The site's location is a major draw, providing easy access to popular coastal highlights such as Kynance Cove, Lizard Point, and Cadgwith, with many beautiful spots reachable on foot. Pitches are spacious, level, and come with convenient water taps and electric hookups, making for a comfortable stay. A unique and much-loved feature is the free-roaming poultry, including a turkey named George, which delights children and adds a quirky, bohemian feel. The campstite has a rustic, countryside charm with chickens and turkeys roaming freely, giving it a peaceful and authentic vibe. Cleanliness receives mixed feedback; while the showers are often praised as hot and blissful, occasional reports mention cobwebs and spiders in the toilet and shower blocks, particularly in the ceilings. The campsite is generally quiet, though some pitches near the main road can experience noticeable traffic noise during daylight hours, which usually subsides after dark. Guests appreciate the separate toilet facilities and a handy washing-up area, with a washing machine and tumble dryer available at reasonable prices. However, the tumble dryer has been noted as broken at times. The site maintains a peaceful and safe environment for families, with plenty of space for children to play. Check-in is straightforward, often with a simple sign directing guests to find their own pitch, though the narrow entrance may require careful navigation. The setting offers minimal light pollution for stargazing, adding to the tranquil experience. A small shop sells essentials like bread and eggs, catering to basic needs. Some guests note that the ground can be hard for pegs, and electric hookups may be far from pitches. WiFi is very poor or nonexistent, and mobile signal is intermittent, encouraging a digital detox. When busy, the number of toilets and showers may feel limited, and a few guests mention the site can look untidy with some long-term caravans detracting from the view. Value for money receives mixed feedback, with some feeling the pitch price is too high for the facilities. Overall, the campsite offers a friendly, informal atmosphere with unique animal encounters, best suited for those who embrace its rustic charm and don't mind occasional road noise or basic amenities.
