Site viewed from entrance View of St Michael's Mount from field behind site HMS Queen Elizabeth Aircraft Carrier
The site is a Caravan Club CL. It is open all year and is situated off a main road down the farms own road,
This is a working dairy farm and entry to site is through the road where the cattle wait for milking, the road into site beyond this is also mud, so don’t expect your car and unit to be clean for long during rain. We arrived to very long grass, this did not get cut until a week into our stay, by this time the grass was up to mid calf, which made the site more appealing and we were able to sit out and not be attacked by the long grass. The owners are very friendly and helpful.
There is free Wi-Fi, but due to the distance from the house, it is variable especially on pitch 5/6, which is furthest from the house.
Dogs are welcome on site with walks direct from site via a dirt track and onto a tarmac road taking you past a new camp site to the south west coastal path or by taking the style and along the fields again to the coastal path. We chose this site as it was within 1-mile walk to the coast and did not need to use the car. There is a very reliable bus service, which will take you either to Penzance or Helston, which stops outside the sites entrance. The site is very peaceful and is free of light pollution. The coastal walks/scenery is stunning; we did spot Dolphins and Seals during our walks. Also during our stay we were able to see anchored by the side if St Michael's Mount HMS Queen Elizabeth aircraft carrier, there for specialist training before sea trials to USA.
Unfortunately, during our stay, the Chemical toilet soil pipe broke into the tank, so we had to carry the toilet to the house and use their manhole next to the house door, not ideal, but it was an emergency. The owners did say it would be repaired in 2 days, the chap came to look at it in the 2 days, but never returned during our stay to fix it, so not sure if it was fixed.
This could be a lovely site if a little more effort was put into it and the weeds and overgrown vegetation around the fence of the site was cut back. I only say this as we have stayed on other sites for the same price and in far better condition.
