I am 64 and have been coming to Mother Ivey's since I was 15. So many happy memories. The site is in a perfect position with its own private beach which is to die for. The grounds of the campsite are beautifully maintained and the staff friendly and helpful. Many lovely walks, Boobys bay, Constantine Bay for surfing within easy... More

Well my step dad has been coming since he was a young boy and then took us to this gem of a campsite. Perfect old fashioned camping in the meadows is what we like and have been doing for years. What brings us back each year well the list is huge. The staff are friendly and always willing to help.... More

We decided on a caravan holiday after our last camping holiday towards the end of the Summer was cut short by bad weather. I expected a caravan, but was surprised to find that a 'static caravan' is more like a chalet. The accommodation was in very good condition, surprisingly so since we had requested to bring our dog with us,... More

I have been coming to Trevose every year since I was a boy and my family were very friendly with the Tummon family and now I am almost retired and I cannot find a more stunning venue than Mother Ivey's Bay in Cornwall. I always stayed at Mother Ivy's Camp Site until last year when I just had enough of... More

Having driven round the site last year and thinking wow, we have just returned from MIB and were not disappointed. 13 of us, most staying for 2 weeks were all really delighted with the static caravans and the friendliness of all the staff. The site is perfectly sited for the fabulous beaches including its own Mother Iverys Bay Beach down... More

It's about time I left a review of this site as we've been going there for nearly 20 years! The hire vans get better and better every year. Even though we hire a dog-friendly van, it was still a brand new one with excellent equipment. There were 5 adults and a dog, but we all had plenty of room, and... More
