Guests consistently commend the park for its spotless facilities and the warm, welcoming atmosphere, accentuated by beautiful flowerbeds and heated shower floors.
While the rooms are well-received, particularly for their hotel-style showers, some guests note a potential wait due to the limited number of showers. The park's location is lauded for its proximity to St Ives and the Cornish coastline, making it a prime spot for exploration.

Stayed here for 4 nights last week, had an amazing time, staff were very friendly when we got there. Toilet and wash facilities were very modern and clean. The use of family rooms is a nice touch to do all your washing together especially if you have young children. Location was great, there was a bus ride to St.Ives which took all of about 10 minutes if that. Our children had a great time, which is what the trip was for, play ground was great for the kids.
Where it could of got better was, before the trip we booked 4 nights but wanted to stay longer in Cornwall, we tried to book but there was not a 7 day option, only the option to book another 4 nights, no problem we thought? Wrong, we were told we could book the other 4 nights but we would have to leave the site as they could not cross over the dates. I didn't see the problem as the option was there, the only difference was the night of the cross over. We asked if we could pay for a night and/ or stay in the car park, again no biggy as we were in a motor-home. We were told under no circumstances could that happen. We ended up booking another campsite 1hr and 30 mins away to extend our stay in Cornwall. I see this as missed business and poor business acumen which resulted us spending our money and staying at a campsite we didn't want to stay at with less then adequate facilities for all. We will book to come here again as the location and facilities were great but you guys need to get your team up-to exceptional customer service standard for the fees you demand.

We are returning customers & have stayed here many times. Just returned on 19th July after 9 fab nights. As usual the site is well looked after & the toilet & shower blocks are spotless. The Covid rules are in place & are strictly adhered to with lots of hand sanitisers stations in place. I wouldn't hesitate in recommending a stay here. The royal bus service into St Ives is a great way to get into town without having to drive, at £1-75 per adult each way who would want to drive ? A pizza van comes on site twice a week & they are delicious. The owners & all the staff are friendly & very helpful. Thanks Neil, Annette & all for another great stay. We will be back again & again.

Second time we have stayed as a family at Trevalgan in our tourer Fully serviced grass pitch was spacious and importantly easy to get our van in and out of. First class welcome and service throughout our stay Sensible COVID measures taken by the site owners didn't detract from our holiday at all. Great washroom facilities Well stocked shop Highly recommend the artisan Flour Power pizza compnay whose van visit on Tuesdays and Fridays and you can book your order by phone Buses on the hour to St Ives or you can walk the 2 or so miles easily along a country walkway near the sea Great new site app Games room closed due to COVID Highly recommended friendly site

This campsite is high quality, we stayed for 3 nights in a motorhome and couldn’t fault anything on this site. It is situated outside St Ives and has a view of the sea, you can access the town in a couple of ways, drive, walk across the fields (40 mins) or take the bus that comes to the site at 5 passed every hour with no stops, it cost £1.75 each way for an adult. There are many walks directly from the campsite along the coastal path with the most amazing views and a most do. The site itself is very COVID safe, the showers and toilets are cleaned to a very high standard and there is hand sanitiser everywhere. There is a motorhome service point, with everything you need. The pitches are large, with plenty of room for chairs, tables and awnings. Access to the site is via a single track road, which does have overtaking points, just don’t arrive when the bus is coming if in a motorhome. Excellent site, couldn’t fault it.

Trevalgan Touring Park is a fantastic, well organised and professionally run touring park. Check in is COVID Safe, efficient, comprehensive and provides you with all the information you need. Friendliness is apparent right from the start and nothing is too much trouble. The shop is well stocked if not a little expensive but can provide you with most if not all of what you need or have forgotten. The ordering process for fresh bread and pastries is a nice touch and the items available are delicious. All of the pitches are extremely well kept and the whole site is maintained to a high standard. The Toilet/Shower Blocks look new or very recent and are clean and well kept. A bus service to St Ives is available from the site and to return for a very reasonable cost. But the walk along the coast is worth it but there are some stiles which may be tricky to negotiate if you are infirm. The App available on the App Store (Apple) and opposing systems App sites is fantastic and if you didn't catch what you were briefed at reception then it's all in there. I would highly recommended you download it prior to leaving. Wifi is available throughout the site but to be honest I felt it was a little expensive. Particularly as each package allows up to 5 devices which is fine for families but not if like me you travel alone or as a couple and only need connectivity for 1 or 2 devices. All in all this site is well above average and in a fantastic location with excellent facilities and grounds with everything kept to an extremely high standard with bend over backwards and very friendly and helpful staff. I have stayed here a few times and cannot recommended it enough.

The site’s response to Covid was amazing, everywhere was spotlessly clean with hand sanitiser stations all over the place. The amenities block is very modern with plenty of room.
The pitches were a good size and you don’t feel too packed in. All the staff were friendly and helpful.
Hourly bus service down to St Ives is very reasonably priced with the most cheerful bus drivers I think I’ve ever met!
Definitely be visiting again one day, hopefully without Covid measures.

We have just returned from a 5 night stay camping at Trevalgan. The site is immaculate, felt very safe and has been well managed during these difficult times. It is the cleanest and most well set out site I have ever been on. The facilities block includes 6 individual ‘en-suite’ type bathrooms with a shower that doesn’t need a button pressing every 2 minutes, a toilet and washbasin. Also if these are full they have the toilet and shower block you can use. Washing up area is inside which makes a welcome change from washing up in the cold. All the areas adhering to social distancing. Cleaning was ongoing throughout the day and the staff are a credit, warm and friendly and never too busy to say hello 😊. St Ives is such a beautiful place and accessible from the campsite via the coastal path. A fairly long walk but wonderful views. The artisan pizza ‘flour power’ van stops by on Tuesdays and Thursdays and the pizzas are just gorgeous! Again all social distancing and ordering in advance. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this site and we will be returning. A credit to the owners 🥳🥳.

The thing I liked most about this campsite was how comfortable, clean and warm the showers and toilet area was. The family shower cubicles are just so awesome. The campsite itself is well kept, well monitored and full of decent people. The hikes to the beach and coast are great and it takes about 50 minutes to hike to St Ives on the coastal path. The shop is limited with food and doesn’t have many options, also it’s expensive and no alcohol. Any other shops are far away. They have a Bus to St Ives every hour or so and the bus drivers are really chilled out friendly people. For some families and couple this place is perfect, but it’s not for everyone. Some negatives about the place that would affect some people are, no fires at all, only BBQ’s. Any small noise after 11pm and you will be told your to loud by a member of staff that strolls the site after 11pm. Kids are restricted with no skateboards, rollerblades, scooters or anything with wheels. (bikes can be rode to go off site) Restrictions for Covid are still in place for things that are not by law but I would say more to suit them. That includes no freezer For freezer blocks. The games room is still shut.

Top notch facilities, best showers and layout of any campsite we’ve seen, beautiful plants and Hedges between many pitches to protect from wind (check the map though and prevailing wind direction if the winds are going to be high). Excellent play area and big football field. Very friendly helpful staff and immaculate high quality showers, laundry and dishwashing rooms. Naturally very well set up for social distancing summer 2020. Shop has lovely BBQ meat, dry goods and camping essentials. Good quality cleaning brands eg natura sanitary wear and Ecover cleaning stuff and eco friendly chemical toilet stuff. BUT no alcohol or fruit and little veg, but big supermarkets are 20 mins away at Penzance or co-op in at ives. Hourly bus to st ives returning up to 10.45. Warm outside shower for getting sand off and cleaning dogs. Would highly recommend walking up the footpath opposite the end of the lane and over the 2 hills to see stunning views. You may get a bit puffed out on the first slope, but it’s worth it and the second hill is easier.

A very well placed campsite in St Ives. Local bus arrives every hour (Very Punctual) and will take you into the town. Very close to Lands End, St Michaels Mount and Geevor. The campsite facilities are the best we have ever seen and are continuously being cleaned by the staff to ensure it all look new all the time. A Pizza van arrives a couple of times a week, we highly recommend them!!

This campsite is off the main roads. The roads around the campsite are infrequently used. There are on a few pitches next to the road, we had one and it was fine.
There are more places to choose from in the St Ives area.
