Is Henry's campsite worth a visit?

Hi all



So far we have been to Lynton and been on the cliff railway.
Lovely place.

Been to Bude. It rained solid for two days. Some good food but little to do.

Then to padstow. Rick stein had to much of my money but it was fab.

Then to st Ives. A little more to see during the day but not overly impressed with the food.

Then to st michaels mount. I can't wait to move on. Naff all here after the castle.

Now what about Henry's? I'm not sure what if anything there is in lizard? Is Henry's a little odd?


Cheers
Craig

 

From the reviews it gets I'd say yes ,never been myself.
9/10 on UK campsites.

 

yes we love it and popped in yesterday to show some friends

the only down sides is

it is a little small if you have large awnings in some pitches
the toilets / showers / washing up areas etc are very basic
if it's windy anywhere then it is on the Lizard

we love it but it is a required taste

 

Can you expand on why you love it?

First time vw owners. Actually first time campers.

 

i guess it's just the wild ruggedness of the area and the large jungle style plants and rocks

plus the quirkiness of the site and buildings

like i said we love it but i do know people that were very disappointed in the site not being like a 5 star hotel

 

Is it in the middle of nowhere?

So far we have been around 1 mile from the main areas of town so we can walk to the pubs etc.

We are on one at the minute in st micheals which charges 50p to use the most horrid showers!!

 

Yeah this ^ and it can be a little cramped but the owners are great and they love Vdubs, some brilliant little coves and beaches nearby within walking distance

 

Anywhere to eat around Henry's, or is it a cook in the van / BBQ site?

 

it's in the village, pubs / cafes and shops 50 yards away

 

Henry's in the morning it is then!

 

it's in the centre of a very small village

2 minutes from pub, shop and pasty shop

 

do phone first as they are often fully booked

although there were a few spaces yesterday


if your staying there tomorrow evening pop down to the lifeboat house for around 6:30 as it's there training night and you can watch the boat go down the slip

 

No answer at the minute. Will try first thing in the morning.

Thanks for the heads up!

 

it's animal feeding time, there's a campers waste food bin for the pigs and chickens

 

Had a really good time at lizard, and Henry's .

Well worth a visit.

The food at the witch ball was very good for pub grub.

 

did you try a Anns pasty ?

 

Yes.......

It was crap. Far to much salt!

 

i will let my sister know

(she's not Ann )

 

So you might meet Henry's Cat?

 

Is she the mature women pouring lashings of Saxo table salt on the pasties????

I watched her, it was a crazy amount of salt!!

I love salt. The wife goes mental at me about the amount of salt I use!
