Loads of places to buy your real Cornish Pastie. We did and it was delicious. TIP; if driving then parking is a real pain. Most car parks are high up and it's a steep walk down and back again. Try taking the Park and Ride train from St Erth. Reasonable price with fab views from the train. Then a short reasonably flat walk to the harbour.

Plenty of tourist info on the local area - loved the location - peaceful, surrounded by trees, shrubs and in harmony with nature and so good for places to go - fantastic sandy beach at Perranporth - also try Crantock beach - look at thatched cottages in the village - 2 miles Truro with interesting shops, cafes - a cream tea at Charlotte's Tea House in the centre of the city is WOW!!! and the cathedral is amazing - short drive to Newquay, Eden Project, St Ives, Falmouth just to name a few! I will be back in the summer as it was relaxing - would recommend this site to you for its cleanliness, good atmosphere, beautiful location and near so many places of interest. Kelly and Ben Murray

We've been coming to Polmanter for the last 12 years. It's simply the best camping and caravanning…read moresite in Cornwall in our opinion and we have been to quite a few. It's very family friendly and they warmly accommodate dog owners too. It's not the cheapest, but you will get what you have paid for here. Each pitch is enclosed by mature hedgerows and stone walls which give a degree of privacy. Many pitches are fully serviced with electricity, water and drainage. We prefer the cheaper grass pitches but you may like their hard pitches too. The club house has a 7 day programme of entertainment but with hourly buses directly into St Ives, we preferred to wander further afield at night although we did enjoy a couple of nights on site. The two adventure playgrounds and the pool kept our little one busy for most of the time during the day. The most striking thing about the site is the standards of cleanliness and tidiness. We always had pleasant neighbours here and there is a very relaxed and friendly feel to the site in general, including the staff in the shop and the reception. I think the site is family owned, and they definitely take pride in there establishment. One particular improvement we noticed this year was the quality of the food served in the clubhouse. It appears to be under a new management which has revamped the old burger and chips menu into something more fitting for the 21st century caravaner. I had the steak pie with a jacket potato and well dressed salad the first night and home made pizza the second time. All of our party commented that the quality was better than most of the more commercial restaurants in town. Crucially, the price of the meals was still very good value. This site is consistently full from word of mouth recommendations and it's not hard to understand why. Expect to have to book your pitch at least 12 months in advance. We will be booking next years pitch before we leave. Highly recommended.

We stayed here for a week last August and had a really nice holiday…read more The park is near Halsetown and is fairly easy to get to with a touring van with no scary single file roads to worry about. It's a good spot to visit the far South of Cornwall - Lands End, St Ives, Penzance etc. As you come in there is a field on the left where you can park up if you have arrived early or pay a little extra, like we did, to leave it there on departure day if you fancied leaving later. On the other side of the road is a large field for football, kites etc. From this point there is a regular bus run down into St Ives and a footpath that leads to St Ives which will take you about 40 minutes but is a nice walk. The park itself is quite large with alot of pitches and amenities. There is a club house with evening entertainment, arcade, play area, pitch and putt course and a well stocked shop. Where we were pitched we had a perfect view of the sea, however we got an awful lot of wind blowing in from the sea so take a rope to keep your awning from flying away. Nice surroundings, clean park, friendly staff. All you need for a relaxing holiday.

Smugglers Haven is part of a larger campsite where a section is seperated for the younger crowd. Not the place to stay for a quiet and relaxing holiday, but ideal if a group of you want to camp and check out the Newquay nightlife. Buses run regularly from the campsite to town and the site even has it's own bus service that runs late into the night to bring you home after a night out. As you would expect you do get some idiots going, drinking too much and making a show of themselves but there are secutiry guards on patrol keeping a check on things. On the whole most of the people there seemed to just be up for a good time with no bother.

I spent a few nights here, this summer. The travel agent booked this for my mother and me I think…read morebecause he had never even heard of Cornwall, and this was probably the first place that got back to him. Then, after booking the Chelsea House, I found it in a tourism book. It was one of two places listed in Falmouth (in that book). I took that as a good sign. The book said that every room had a view of the water. Well, that's not actually true. There is one room that doesn't have a view of the ocean, and that's the Shell Room, namely, my room. But that's ok! Even though we overlooked the back yard (and the neighbor's dumpster), Chelsea House was worthwhile. There were a few weird aspects to the place and a few down sides. Our room was tiny. Super duper tiny. And it was clearly the last one to be remodeled (As in, the other rooms looked much nicer). The tea kettle was rusty (I used it anyway). You order your breakfast the night before. And if you're not down at 8, you're not going to be eating breakfast. I really appreciated that because it meant I was forced to start my day earlier. I definitely got to squeeze more in that way. But, they are a street away from the water and a short block from the beach. They are incredibly close to the bus/train station. So close that when we left, we walked our very heavy luggage to the train station. They are also only a short walk to the center of town, so it's easy to shop and go to dinner, etc. They were very nice. And it was very affordable, considering it was the official start of the season, and most places were booked. I guess with the tiny room with no view (and the weak dollar), it was one time you wouldn't mind paying for what you get!

Its just residential street parking available but plenty of room.

The pub was packed of course, since it was Saturday night but we were able to quickly get a seat on the bar side, always our preference. I'm we shared the seafood chowder, chock full of salmon, prawns, clams, and more. Chunky granary bread on the side ensured we didn't have to leave any broth behind! Next we had the fish pie, one of my favorites. Again, lots of seafood inside and hot and tasty. Service at the bar was simple and quick. Thanks for a great meal!
