Excellent site jo-anne. If you can get a super pitch. No more filling Aqua Rolls or emptying Wastemasters. You will have to get a valve for the AquaRoll if you haven't got one but well worth it. The shower block is the best I've ever been to.

Oh, forgot, Asda at Falmouth, 6 miles, also lots of nice beaches around there. Truro is a nice town with supermarkets and all the other outlets you find in large towns. What I like about the site is you can strike out for the north or south coasts from there, all within easy reach.

Hi jo-anne, we were there over Xmas last year and it was lovely. Lord B was right about the facilities - second to none. We weren't on an all signing and dancing pitch, but everything was close by, so no probs. You must get the King Harry Ferry to The Roseland Penisula - a most beautiful part of Cornwall with lovely coves and beaches. Truro is great for shopping and there is a local Spa very close by. The site offers lots of free information leaflets. Make sure you go to Perranporth - it has the best beach with great rock pools and sand dunes for the kids and adults!.

Have a great time

jo-anne, we walked around the whole site when we were there, and it all seemed very spacious. Our pitch was very large, we had a picnic table and chairs and it appeared that most pitches also had these. I am sure it will be fine wherever you are placed.

Hi jo-anne,

We are at Carnon Downs from 25th August to 3rd September,so will hopefully see you there sometime, we are on a fully serviced pitch, all I can remember is that it is on an end somewhere, the site has a website and you can see the layout of the pitches, roads etc, reply ref Wyoming with you other post.
