    brilliant place, stunning views friendly people. No chemical waste disposal & there's a sign on nearby public toilets asking campers not to empty their waste there or they will be closed. Please respect this. Also note that the contact phone number & email are not for this place. I used both & the lady I spoke to had no knowledge of this place.

  • 5/5

    What a find - thank you everyone! £5 for the night, with the most spectacular views. Really friendly owner collects the money at 1900 (make sure you are there before this). A bit undulating but easy to chock up to level. Bigger vehicles park at the top as it does become slippery with the morning dew. Nori (owner) will leave you the gate combination if you have to get out. Outstanding find!

  • 5/5

    Wundervoller Platz mit unschlagbarer Aussicht! Wenn es viel geregnet hat, ist 4x4 empfehlenswert. Mit eigener Toilette darf man auch über Nacht bleiben.

  • 5/5

    Great spot! Amazing views at 5-10min walk down the coast path to get to a beautiful swimming cove Bossiney Bay. It’s £1 for 8am-7pm and the owner comes round at 7pm to collect £5,and then locks the gate. You have to be there before to secure a spot. He gives the code in case of emergencies though

  • 5/5

    Einfacher Platz bzw. Wiese, für Selbstversorger ideal. Grandiose Aussicht, 5£ pro Nacht, Tor wird ab spätestens 19 Uhr abgesperrt.

  • 2/5

    sieht nett aus. ist aber abgeschlossen....

  • 5/5

    super views and no dramas

  • 2/5

    Closed due to rain…. Drove here for nothing.

  • 5/5

    Amazing place! Stayed for one night and did not want to leave. Make sure to be there before 7 pm since gates are locked at nighttime!

  • 5/5

    Great spot, well worth the price! A little slopey, but definitely okay just for a night. You must have your own toilet, but lovely owner let us stay anyway when we promised to use ‘the emergency pot’ and dispose of when we got back home. Will be coming here again I’m sure :)

  • 5/5

    stayed here for the night as everyone said in the comments lovely place to stay great views and slept soundly lovely lady collected the money this time his wife and was given the gate code will defenetly stay again

  • 5/5

    sehr schöner Platz, unbeschreibliche Aussicht, nicht eben, Gras, bei viel Regen u.U. schwer weg zu fahren, Besitzer kommt zw. 18:30 & 19:00, kassiert für die Nacht 5£, bei schlechtem Wetter eventuell früher, verschließt dann das Tor, hinterlässt Code für Notfall, sperrt gegen 7:00 auf. Eis, Tee, Kuchen Kiosk mit tollem Eis von Hanna (nicht Platzbesitzer). Es wäre toll, gäbe es mehr dieser Plätze!

  • 5/5

    As others have said, the owner comes round around 19.00 and asks you if you have your own toilets facilities, takes £5 for the night and gives you the gate code. A lovely bloke. Stunning views, walks-a-plenty and a tea room across the road with toilets. They open at 10am and serve tea, cakes and even beers and cocktails! They seemed to close around 6ish but I think that is customer dependent.

  • 4/5

    It is not true that only UK Caravan and Motorhome members can use this place. We stayed there for two nights. Daytime parking costs £1, and overnight parking costs £5. There is a toilet available at the entrance from 10 am to around 5 pm. Emptying chemical toilets is prohibited.

  • 4/5

    Wat een plek! Enige grote nadeel is dat je onmogelijk level kan staan en dat er geen voorzieningen zijn. Verder een muisstille nacht en prachtige uitzichten!

  • 5/5

    Great spot! As per other reviews £5 collected at 7pm. Gates are locked after that so get here before then. Code to get out is provided though. Owner says only vans with toilet facilities are permitted but seems flexible on this if you’re responsible. Great stay!

  • 5/5

    Open! £5 per night collected at 7pm. Amazing views, we have the whole field to ourselves tonight :-)

  • 1/5

    UK Caravan and Motorhome members only at the moment. The guy was really helpful though and recommended a spot down in Tintagel.

  • 5/5

    Stayed here for 2 nights in one of the public car park spaces next to the gate. (for free) Perfectly fine spot. Public toilets clearly say no dumping of chemical toilets or filling up water tanks so please stick to it otherwise restrictions will come in place. Busy with dog walkers and cafe opposite so have to be respectful to others around you. Very quiet at night.

  • 5/5

    it's open again after bad weather!!! absolutely stunning views!! owners come around in the evening to collect money!!

  • 1/5

    Closed. No one here. No number. Nothing.

  • 1/5

    Gate closed:( Such a shame as it’s such a beautiful location!

  • 3/5

    13.10.22 this is might be a seasonal car park, I arrived at 6:17 and it was locked up with no one inside. I’ll give it a 3 though because I’m sad I missed it.

  • 5/5

    Perfect stopover. £5 overnight collected by the very friendly landowner around 7pm when the gate is locked. Was given the code for the gate incase I needed to leave. The views are fantastic, good walks, and access down to the coves for a swim (Bossinney cove is technically closed). You do need to bring water and have toilet facilities. Would definately stop here again

  • 5/5

    stayed overnight, all alone and locked in, the field perfect, met the owners, lovely people they did say there isn't water in the field so you will need to take water and your toilet, forgot to say the owners will give you the number for the gate great stopover with great views

  • 1/5

    Tor war geschlossen mit einer Kette, ich denke es ist nicht mehr möglich hier zu parken.

  • 5/5

    Wonderful views, really peacefull place. the owner allowed us to stay overnight as long as you have a toilet in you camper.

  • 5/5

    Beautiful Spot, a couple of level spots. Very quiet. Unfortunately no running water.

  • 4/5

    Beautiful views, you have to have a toilet in your van to stay here.

  • 5/5

    Perfect. Lovely views. Worth the 5£! There was a ice cream guy near the entrance when we were there. :)

  • 5/5

    Perfekter Parkplatz. Leider ist das Wasser aktuell aus bzw. leer.

  • 5/5

    Weer een pareltje. Voor £ 5 per nacht (s avonds rond 19 uur door de alleraardigste eigenaren van het terrein bij jou persoonlijk opgehaald - helemaal top!) uitzicht op de zee, het kasteel… gewoon magisch. Net als de zonsondergang! Je dient over eigen sanitair te beschikken en je plek achter te laten zoals je m vond of beter… en om veiligheidsredenen gaat het toegangshek om 19 uur dicht… krijg je de code voor noodgevallen om het te kunnen openen. Alweer een must stop plek!

  • 5/5

    One of the best overnight spots we ever came across. Still £5 for an overnight stay. The owner comes around when he and she closes the front gate in the evening around 7pm You need your own toilet in order to stay. Please keep this place clean. fresh water on site 30mins to 1 hour walk to tintagel castle via the costal path, depends on your fitness. Good views. Shops an pubs in tintagel!

  • 5/5

    Great spot, only £5 per night per vehicle, you need to be self-contained. Farmer comes to collect £5 and lock the gate at 7pm, really friendly guy. Also has fresh water and some spots towards the bottom are fairly flat. Great spot to explore Tintangel and the surrounding area, the spot is right on the coastal path. Stayed two nights, would definitely recommend

  • 5/5

    At the edge of the village Bossiney is where you can find (or miss) the entrance to the carpark. If you can go off "grid" it is perfect, cause there aren't any facilities. The farmer is really friendly and genuinely interested in where you came from. it costs 5 pounds a night, brilliant

  • 5/5

    Sehr ruhiger Platz mit wunderschöner Aussicht. Z.Zt. £5 pro Fahrzeug und Nacht. Viel Platz, der weiter unten flacher wird.

  • 5/5

    Great views and a great host

  • 5/5

    stayed night...£5 for night. farmer came round about 7pm. very nice guy. excellent views. felt very safe.def use again...

  • 5/5

    The most breathtaking view! Friendly land owner who comes around 7pm to collect payment and lock the gate. £5 for the night, you'll need to make sure you're self sustaining.

  • 5/5

    Wow was für ein toller Platz, super Aussicht und 5£ für 2 Personen im Van. Keine Einrichtungen. Toilette muss im Van vorhanden sein. Gegen 18/19 Uhr wird das Geld eingesammelt Parken tagsüber 1£. Tintagel castle ist zu Fuss erreichbar.

  • 5/5

    Eine sehr schöne Aussicht! Gelände ist abschüssig. Der Besitzer ist sehr nett und kommt Abends um 7 uhr um das Tor zu schließen und Geld einzusammeln. Für 2 Personen und ein Van zahlten wir 5 Pfund. keine Toiletten vorhanden, man muss eine eigene haben sonst lässt der Besitzer einen nicht hier bleiben.

  • 4/5

    Unfortunately doesn't seem to be open yet (08/04/22), gate closed and no signs to say when it might be opening. Looks like a lovely spot so have rated it as such, would have thought it would be open for the season by now though.

  • 1/5

    Gates locked on 1st April 2022.

  • 5/5

    Looks gorgeous but they actually lock the gate at 7pm and we got here at 8pm unfortunately!!

  • 5/5

    Amazing views and brilliant for coastal walks.The farmer and his wife come around to collect the money at 7.00p.m very friendly.

  • 4/5

    No signs up but overnight camping for £5. no facilities but great view.

  • 5/5

    Amazing place to park feels very secure and will add they only allow those with own facilities at the moment

  • 5/5

    Beautiful pitch! Gates close at 7pm and open around 7am. The owner of the field came around 8pm to collect £5 off us for staying the night. Quiet, peaceful and amazing views. No toilets, bins or water.

  • 5/5

    Can’t stay here at present due to the farmer having a dispute with the council over campers. Would be beautiful if able to stay. Farmer lovely and friendly when closing car park and informing us we couldn’t stay x

  • 2/5

    Gutted went today but the gate was locked. Looks absolutely amazing.

  • 5/5

    Incredible views and location. Farmer is really friendly, turns up about 7pm to lock the gates, happy for you to stay with a £5 per van charge, flexible to opening gates in morning if you need to leave early.

  • 5/5

    Amazing views and quiet. You'll need levelling wedges. We (2 of us) paid £5 but didn't ask if that was per van or £2.50 per person - totally worth it.

  • 4/5

    Toilets don't seem to be open anymore so 0 facilities now.

  • 1/5

    Arrived sign says closed due to weather! We are only due rain half the day!

  • 5/5

    We stayed here for 2 nights, while the pitch slips a little, it is a great place with amazing views, we walked to Tintagel as well as the local beach (Trethevy). While there are no amenities we will be back again

  • 4/5

    Great parking spot with amazing views. Owner is super friendly. Cafe across the road with a direct walk down to Bossiney Cove - perfect spot for a swim! Unfortunately due to new council rules, campers without an inbuilt toilet are not permitted to stay overnight.

  • 5/5

    Can be very busy in the day time, the owner comes at 7pm to collect money and lock the gate. There is a cafe and mini golf opposite and a 15 min walk to cliffs and at nectar glens waterfall (then another 30 through the nectar forest) - would stay again :)

  • 3/5

    Lovely spot, toilets & gate locked at 7pm due to covid restrictions. 100% need level wedges. Amazing view. Lovely owner. £5 a night

  • 5/5

    What a view, had the field to ourself..awesome..

  • 1/5

    car park closed

  • 5/5

    Traumhafter Blick auf die Küste und Tintagel. Sehr freundliche Eigentümer, kommen abends vorbei zum Kassieren. Klare Empfehlung.

  • 5/5

    Great location, friendly owners. The toilets that are on the other side of the gate have been closed so it's just a field, £2 per person is good for a great spot

  • 5/5

    Great spot and was pretty quiet in August. We paid £2 per person per night and stayed two nights. Farmer comes round around 6 to collect money.Beach is great.

  • 3/5

    Ich sehe dort keine Entsorgungsstation. Weder für das WC, noch für das Grauwasser.

  • 4/5

    Fantastic view. The toilets are fine but close after 7pm. the farmers are really nice and easy going. The only downside is that the parking is on a little bit of a hill so a bit diffucult to park right.

  • 3/5

    This place was great, beautiful views, lovely walks, but we didn’t stay overnight because most was sloping

  • 5/5

    Toller Platz mit Aussicht und Zugang zu einer spannenden kleinen Bucht. Leider konnten wir nicht über Nacht bleiben weil das Wetter es nicht zuließ. Es war heftiger Regen angesagt und ein entsprechendes Schild am Eingang des Platzes. Und die Nacht war wirklich heftig. Haben sie auf dem Campingplatz nebenan verbracht (bei £40).

  • 5/5

    Great find, lovely farmer, gate shuts at 7pm until 8am, when farmer collects fee of £2pp. toilets open other side of gate 24/7. nice walks from site. highly recommend

  • 4/5

    Lieux agréable, calme avec une belle vue sur la mer et le château. Toutefois, à côté de l'entrée, il y a une antenne relais pour téléphone, pas très esthétique et attention aux personnes sensibles. Concernant le tarif, c'est 1£ le parking de jour (mettre la pièce dans le poteau à l'entrée). Nous avons payé 5£ pour la nuit, payé directement au prioritaire qui vient fermer la barrière à 19 heures.

  • 5/5

    Coup de foudre pour ce spot, cales indispensable mais vue imprenable et calme absolu. Il vous faudra y être avant 19h, horaire de fermeture de la barrière et passage du fermier qui prend 2 £ par personne pour la nuit. On est à Tintagke en quelques minutes en vélo ou par une belle balade à pied de 30 minutes le long de la côte avec des accès à des plages magnifiques

  • 5/5

    Go through the village until you see red phone box. site on left. Great spot for an overnight £2 per person gates locked at 7pm-ish open at 8.15am-ish. Toilets available outside the gate no water available but owner said he might install at sometime. Slopping site definitely need levelling ramps..

  • 5/5

    Great spot, cheap and a short walk to a lovely cove amazing views and Farmer was in no rush to move you on the next day

  • 5/5

    Great over night stay. Owner comes round to collect the £2 per person fee.. really friendly guy.. great view. We used our levellers as it’s sloping..

  • 4/5

    Top Stellplatz!

  • 5/5

    Awesome spot for a motor home sized vehicle. Incredible views, nice walks, not busy at all, and extremely quiet and peaceful. Costs £2 per person to stay overnight, well worth the money. Owner is incredibly friendly and we had a lovely chat with him. Fully recommended!!

  • 5/5

    Toller Platz, unglaublich nette Leute! Wir waren ein paar Nächte hier, weil uns in Tintagel zu viel los war und sind gelaufen

  • 5/5

    A small meadow with a slight slope, easy to level. £2 per person per night with the gate locked at 7pm when the owners collect the money. Amazing views, fanatic walks and Bossiney Cove is a beautiful place for a swim.

  • 5/5

    Unfortunately there are no even level spots, but still loved it! Lovely people and the best beach, including a waterfall. Not too busy just perfect!

  • 4/5

    Privater Parkplatz auf einer Wiese, Ausgleichskeile für Übernachtung sinnvoll. Tor wird um 19Uhr geschlossen und um 8Uhr wieder geöffnet. Gebühr tagsüber 1£, bei Übernachtung 2£/Person. Sehr ruhig und tolle Aussicht, Fußweg nach Tintagel ca. 10-15 Min.

  • 3/5

    Hek gesloten helaas. Had een erg mooie plek geweest.

  • 5/5

    What a perfect spot. This is why we love using this app. Found some real gems, this is one of them.

  • 4/5

    Unfortunately closed at the moment

  • 5/5

    The price seems to increase regularly :) The owner asked us a couple of pounds for each person in the van. Still super cheap for such a great spot. There is a nice walk from the place all the way to the bottom of the cliff. Enjoyed the night there a lot. We were only three vans staying so pretty quiet.

  • 5/5

    Epic view!! For £3 with free toilets it’s hard to past. Right on the coastal path and a nice walk to King Arthur’s castle this is top of my list. The owner comes around at 7pm to collect money and lock the gate and it opens again at 815am. Very peaceful sleep, 2 other campers and one of the rare places you can put your awning chairs and table out to sit back and watch the sunset

  • 1/5

    Gates padlocked up so must be seasonal

  • 5/5

    Ein wunderschöner Platz, hatten hier den schönsten sonnenuntergang von ganz Großbritannien!! nur 2$ die nacht, ist es echt wehrt.

  • 5/5

    The view is probably the most magnificent we had on our entire tour through Europe. The owners are super friendly and come around at 8pm for the £2. Bless the campers who found this sweet spot !

  • 5/5

    This spot was one of the best we had so far on our roadtrip. during the day it is used as a normal carpark for walkers, dog owners and surfers. But during the night there were only three campervans staying the night (there is still enough privacy as the field is really big). at around 8pm the owners come and collect £2 from everyone who wants to stay the night. they close the gate, but you can jump over and still use the toilet facilities. We slept there for two nights and had a really good time staying there. highly recommended!!

  • 4/5

    Staying here tonight. Great views and cow field next to us which the kids loved. Very cheap to stay, public toilets just at entrance. Slightly sloped hill but more levelled at the bottom. If its windy its not very sheltered but cant complain with the location.

  • 5/5

    Beautiful spot. Cost us £2 to stay the night. Fab coastal walks beside the field. It rained a good bit the night we stayed and the next morning a another larger campervan had difficulty getting out. Just something to bare in mind perhaps if it's wet stay at the top of the slope.

  • 5/5

    Stayed here for 1 night. it was nice and quiet with 4 other vans overnight. nobody came round in the evening to collect money or lock the gate but we put the money in the honesty box as we left. would stay here again

  • 5/5

    Really good spot. Cute little beach between the cliffs and a wonderful path following the cliffs. Perfect view on the sea.

  • 5/5

    Nous y avons passé 2 nuits. La vue est magnifique. La baie en contrebas (10 minutes à pied) est splendide, allez-y tôt en été car elle est très fréquentée. les toilettes publiques sont plutôt propres. le parking en herbe est très bien. 1 pound la journée (à mettre dans le poteau de l'entrée) 2 pour la nuit (collectés vers 20-21h par le propriétaire avant fermeture). je recommande chaudement !

  • 5/5

    Great spot. Price is £1 for day parking - money goes in the slot in the white metal post by the gate, £2 for overnight which is collected when the gate is closed about 8pm. Toilets just outside the gate, 1 mile walk into Tintagel.

  • 5/5

    Beautiful bay/cove down the hill and stunning views. Now £2 for the night gates are locked from 8pm-8am

  • 5/5

    Took a pound for parking, but nobody was there to take our money, and it wasn't clear where to leave it! there were three other campers there overnight. loads of room to park and play with our dog, with toilets nearby and a great veiw!! A bit of a slope, as it's on the hill. just try and park somewhere level!

  • 5/5

    Wow, views are incredible, you can walk as many hours as you want along the coastal path, accompanied by small streams and animals. Toilets available at parking
