I've just come back from a fab weekend staying at the farm. Having started my holiday on Thursday at the AWFUL Porthkerris Dive Centre campsite. We drove to Falmouth desperately looking for somewhere clean to stay after cutting the Porthkerris trip short after one night.

The farmer was very friendly, told about the bus routes into town, nice places to eat and advised us where the quieter parts of the camp were away from large groups.

There was a large play area in front of the main house for children with a trampoline and swings.

The showers were spotless and there was always hot water. We would definitely stay here again. ;o)

We have just come back from a 2 week stay at Pennance Mill.

Alan & Vanessa are a great couple very laid back and friendly; nothing is to much trouble

We had great fun participating in the fun events (family Olympics).

There was always something to do on the nights.

My good friend Dave especially liked the folk dancing with the worm.

So all the people that didn't like Pennance Mill you will have to try and find some where better and all the people that like it what more can I say.

Having read the first reviews above I was unsure whether to book for the bank holiday but I can not praise the owners highly enough. I had to drop my van off on thursday and go back and pick up the dive boat and the owners could not be more helpful. From dawn til midnight they are cleaning muddy toilet blocks ,taking the children for tractor rides or putting entertainment on in the barn. I think that we prefer to moan rather than give praise where it is deserved. I will be going back.

Beautiful family orientated site, set in lovely countryside, very relaxed atmosphere, clean facilities, free dish washing, showers etc. Level sites for those whose want, serviced pitches if wanted, also relaxed grassy areas for those who prefer. Tractor rides for youngsters, entertainment in the barn for everyone, put on by owners Alan and Vanessa who really understand families (they have their own). There is a small shop for necessities, and help at any time. Fun for all, and also so relaxing too. Parents.. no worries. A private path through countryside approx. 20 mins walk to the beach. Or a few mins by car to a car park right on the beach. Shop, and life guards on the beach. Only 20mins approx. by car to Falmouth where lots to do in all weathers. And of course the cliff path walk. What more could anyone want. We have come here for 35 years, and our children now bring their kids. 7 of them and we have a wonderful family reunion (4 from Luxembourg) they would be devastated if we stopped coming to Meanporth, and Pennance Mill Farm.

Lovely family friendly site. Been going for 35 years, at least once a year, occasionally more. Always in school hols, with our kids, now with our kids and grand kids. The site is clean well equipped with free warm shower blocks, and washing up sinks. Also laundry room. "only pay for the washing machine". There is really good entertainment each evening put on by the owners, Alan and Vanessa Jewell, for the children and also for families. The tractor rides each morning for the younger children are magical. and after all that, the site is set in beautiful cornish scenery, with fields rolling all around. There is a private path to walk to Maenporth beach, keeping safely away from the road, built by Alan Jewell himself. Nothing is ever too much. And on top of all that, Falmouth itself with all those attractions is only 10 / 15 mins away by car. Or a beautiful cliff path walk, with fantastic views maybe 3/4hr or so depending on your fitness. No one should miss this gem.
