This was our first trip out in our campervan, loverly location right by the water with very nice views over the lake. No facilities but that's not especially important for us as we want to be off grid. It was quite busy. About 5 or 6 units when we arrived, and two or three arrived later. One van nearby was playing music but it wasn't blaring out so again not too much of a problem. Very handily there is a toilet block in the park just up the road (which did state no overnight) - 30p by card

Four other vans here tonight and still room for more. Great views across the lake and very little road noise. Good walks around the lake shore. Sheep roaming around, so dogs would need to be kept on a lead. Suitable for all sizes, mostly slightly sloping.

Stopped overnight at this fantastic location with spectacular views over Collidird lake. Car park has som sloping Areas and some level so select wisely if you dont have chocks.

Car park is gravel so wasnt a problem in the heavy rain that fell overnight. Woke up to misty morning and more rain however this didnt dampen our satisfaction over the site

Perfect overnight stay. Plenty of room, quiet. Gorgeous view over the lake. Plenty of run space for the dogs. Couple of latecomers into the space but other than that no disturbances. There were 5 vans when were there and room for more. Excellent find.

We parked up about 7.00. There were a couple of other vans there already. It's a nice place, nothing too spectacular really. It was our first night 'wild camping' and passed without incident. The car park was easily accessible, flat and quiet. I was worried about boy racers etc but no probs.
As it's right in the middle of Cornwall it's a good place to plan your hols from. We would definitely recommend this stopover.

Arrived at 6pm a few cars and a 3 MoHos. Several gents fishing until around 8pm. Few cars came and went until around 10pm then it went very quiet just an occasional car running across the cattle grid on the B road behind us. It got so quiet the slightest little noise in the van could be heard. My only compaint was my Tinitus was super noticable but hey thats just me ???? Approach road is great we are 6.99m but even a large tag axle would be ok in my view. But please please respect this space or the council will be in to height restrict.

One night wild camp before visiting the Jamaica Inn and heading toward Devon. Lovely and quiet, arrived mid day, no-one around. Couple of cars came and went and we woke to two more campers on site. No facilities but had all we needed on board. Great for walking the dog along the lakeside but make sure you keep them on a lead as there are sheep wandering freely. There are also another couple of wild camp stops further round the lake.

Went here on Easter Monday and we shared the car park with 4 other motor homes and a couple of cars. Could not believe how quiet it was on the bank holiday. There are no facilities but we had our own so this did not matter, i imagine this would be a great stopover place for the weekend. The A30 is about 2 miles away so handy to stop over for a night.

A once idyllic spot, now spoiled by those taking advantage of the quiet location. There are two car parks, the first used to have toilets but these have been closed due to vandalism and unsavoury useage! The second car park is quieter but attracts younger couples/boy racers that can and do spoil the peace, and who also tend to leave litter. These car parks will almost certainly be gated soon or have height barriers fitted because of misuse.

Lovely views, flat surface and would have been perfect had a car not disturbed us by continually driving from spot to spot within the lay-by , presumed either a courting couple or boy racers. Arrived at around midnight and eventually left at about 3.30 am. Unsettled us a bit as we had the bikes on the back and didn't want them disappearing overnight.

This was our third "wild camp." Superb location just off the A30 off our notorious Temple road works. In the middle of nowhere. Had no traffic after 8pm. (March 2017). Views and wildlife were fantastic. This location is on the West side of the the lake, it's definitely worth a tour of the perimeter of the lake, mostly single track, but only met two vehicles this morning. Lot's of passing places.

Be on guard. Bodmin visibility can drop at a moments notice, to as little as two feet. If it does, pull over on one of our lay byes and carry on when the clag lifts.

Arrived early evening and it was already dark , whilst my hubby parked up and got things sorted. I took our dog for a walk to the lake I was amazed to see wild horses and cows drinking freely at the lake: This has to be one of the most beautiful and spectacular and quiet places we have ever stayed. Watching the horses run wild was stunning. When we woke up the next day it is a serene and beautiful place to stop over although the horses had moved on. Ideal quiet place to stay.
