We stayed at this site at the end of July in a trailer tent with two
children.
A very lovely site about 10 minutes walk to 'sandy' beach. Very clean
and well maintained site with friendly owners who offered us a choice
of positions on arrival.
Toilet facilities vary in luxury from block to block but all are clean
and plentiful with free hot water.
Very quiet site at night and peaceful during the day. Swimming pool
small and a bit cold, but was popular with children. There is a crazy
golf course and an adventure playground. Rounders and archery was on
offer on the summer evenings. There was also a visit from a wildlife
expert and a clown on Saturdays.
Take away cafe on site and well equipped shop, launderette and TV room.
Dishwashing faculties are also plentiful.
Local beach would be very nice if it had a good clean up. There is a
large entertainment complex on the beach which is run down but apparantly
is due for improvement. The sand is heavy and gritty. Benefits are that
it was always fairly empty so you have lots of room!
North coast only a 40 min drive away if you want more lively cleaner
beaches.
we really enjoyed our stay at Carlyon Bay camping park and would not
hesitate to return there again.

I would like to tell you of two campsites in the bude area of north Cornwall, They are bude holiday park maer lane bude, And widemouth bay caravan park at widmouth bay Nr bude.
Both in my opinion have very good services for tourers and very good
evening entertainment, Both for adults and children at widmouth bay
they have the foxy club for the younger children and the usual collection
of fruit machine's (not to everyone's taste I know) for the older one's
along with good early in club entertainment for the younger one's, Leaving
the latter part of the evening to us oldie's. The club has a night club
atmosphere about it, ideal for the teenager's.
As I remember both these sites do offer child sitting facilities, Although
if these are still an option, you would have to inquire in advance of
your visit, bude holiday park is one that my family and I have been
visiting since the 1960's and is a very friendly park they as well as
widmouth, are supporters of the ginger bread organisation and offer
lots
to do, the staff at both sites are very helpful with hints to whats
on in the local area, and cannot do enough to help you while you are
on site. And as with a lot of other sites offer a comprehensive range
of leaflets with local attraction information. Again at both sites meals
are provided in on-site restaurants.
These two are well worth a visit If you are not happy I will be very
supprised. Go on give either a try. the surrounding countryside and
beaches are stunning, summerleaze beach in bude is referred to as the
UK's bondi, and is a dog friendly beach, (dog's must be kept on a lead.)
Widemouthbay's beach is one mile of golden sand ideal for surfer's,
And dog's are allowed at the South end of the beach making these two
beaches ideal for familles at anytime.
I forgot to mention that both sites have swimming pools bude's is an
outdoor pool, While widmouthbay's is an indoor pool both very good.
and both are heated.
