Campgrounds in Looe

The caravan was of an excellent standard, every little detail catered for with lovely finishing/homely touches. We only used it as a base to visit friends locally for a couple of nights but could have easily spent longer there. We didn't use the park facilities as we had other plans to occupy our time.

The views

The place its self is nice and private. There was a lot of rubbish in the far side of the area we stayed in, which was a little unsightly, but it is off season so would expect it to not be perfect. Checking in was a little bit of a pain, phoning, waiting then confusion over names, but sorted in the end. Over all would stay again and would recommend to friends and family

Lovely scenery, lady was very nice and helpful, tent was spacious, clean toilet facilities, Make sure you understand that this is a camping experience, so take own tea coffees mugs, towels etc. they have a log burner in the tent so buy some kindling and logs, and the kettle supplied will work and the lovely tent will be warm and cosy.

Location. The view. The quiet. We had our own space and privacy. The pool table. It was comfortable. The one man working there was nice, laughed easily and tried his best.

The location is great, secluded but not a far drive from the town of looe. If you're walking it's around an hours walk downhill and uphill, but if you're driving it's a 10 minute drive. Lovely area around the caravan park to go for a walk, including nearby woods (screek woods) that you access via a gate just before the farm at the bottom and the site itself is quiet at night with perfect views of the stars. There is a table on the decking and round the side there are sliding back doors with your own little balcony style setting. The owners are really friendly and helpful and my cats also enjoyed their little holiday. There is a small shop within reception which sells water, pop, milk and other necessities as well as homemade jams from a nearby farm which is delicious and all natural. There is an onsite washing machine and dryer that takes coins. Also showers and toilets onsite for campers. The static caravan we stayed in is very spacious and space is utilized well. You get a lovely welcome hamper with a cloth, sponge, washing up liquid, tea, coffee etc and some fudge bites, but if you're arriving late I would advise to bring food with you as most places close around 10 pm or earlier. You can access a range of taxis and reception are happy to give you a list or a few taxi rank cards which is helpful but if you want to go out on a Sunday you will need to walk or drive as most if not all taxis do not run on a Sunday. It is also advised to pre book taxis for a certain time, and usually last bookings are at 11pm to come back. After 11pm you may struggle to get a taxi. There are a range of restaurants and shops within the town of looe and I highly recommend exploring the area. We mostly enjoyed the boat trips and Adrenaline quarry especially the inflatable water course. There are a range of pubs but we took favour to JJ's as it's a lovely setting with a good range of music and drinks (bonus that the owner has 2 friendly staffies).

Ideally located for sightseeing in Cornwall
