Hi There

Just wondered if anyone has used the touring site at Perran Sands Haven site in Perranporth Cornwall.

We have booked a week in September on a extra large pitch with electric hook up with use and access to all facilities on site for an amazing price of just £73 which i thought was a bargain.

Looking at some of the reviews, its had a mixed report but there has been a lot of money spent on the site recently including new toilet/shower block etc.

If anyone has any feedback it would be appreciated and also any info or tips for that part of Cornwall. its around 30 years ago since we last visited. I'd like to visit a few places down there but am getting more concerned about limited parking and acceptance of Motorhomes. even supermarket car parks have started putting signs up although these state caravan and not Motorhome, but when they go on about parking between the white lines etc is a concern as i cant fit in to one bay. we plan on taking food stuff with us but some bits when we get there.

Thanks for any feedback

I would imagine the attitude of Cornish companies in the heights of summer are different when you go off season. Sounds like an excellent deal.

We had a bargain week there last June, nice enough site with all you'd expect, our Moho is 7m long & as we didn't fancy trying to park it anywhere, we hired a car for the week to see the sights.

It's not so bad here for supermarket Car parks, We find a park away from the entrances, at the far end of the car parks.
There are Council Carparks & Car Parks at attractions here that are M/H friendly. The Quarry Hill C/P in Falmouth, The big C/P in Penzance just as you run into town, Heligan, Eden Project, The Menack Theatre at Porthcurno, Mevagissey (The first as you come into town) Polerro, Looe, even Lands End, (the biggest waste of money ever) Even Perranporth , (not the one at the Beach the one behind the main street)

Anyway, if you need any advice about other stuff here in Cornwall I'm only a PM away.

Thanks. Mine is 7.3m and I don't mind driving around but its the upheaval every time i guess as well. In all there will be around 15 of us going and They are all staying on the static section. There will be about 5 cars, so i know we can tag along some days, its just nice to come and go as you please though sometimes.

We have always found haven parks a bargain out of season as long as you don't over do the pubs and clubs we have done the Blackpool one a couple of times and the caister one is particularly good, and we have found they are very well serviced with bus's.

Hi, What we do when in Cornwall , usually on a temporary holiday site , we hire a small car from enterprise rental for a few days ( 10% discount through C&MC ) they deliver to site & and return you back to site when you take it back.

We stayed on an early season offer, the bus stops in the site. Toilet block modern with a grass roof. All round quite nice, but should imagine it’s busy in high season.

I stayed a couple of weeks about 5 years ago and found weekends was full of young surfers partying and drinking to the early hours with loud music in tents . But Sunday they all packed up and left but never again .
