C'est juste une aire de repos mais quelle vue imprenable, la route était calme après 22 heures, je suis resté la nuit sans problème

It's just a layby but what a view stunning, road was quiet after 10pm stayed the night no problem

Es ist nur eine Pause, aber was für eine atemberaubende Aussicht, die Straße war ruhig nach 22 Uhr blieb die Nacht kein Problem

    Incredible view over the bay. Great walking distance to restaurants & the beach. Bit silly that it’s a double yellow in a parking bay though. We only stopped for dinner & then moved on as we didn’t fancy facing the parking fine.

    31/8/23 stayed with other campers but we all got tickets at 6:40am. If you are happy with a fine crack on personally it was worth it for view. Again like people said faded double yellows.

    Great lay-by to pull in and open the side door for sunset. We were thinking of risking it to stay overnight but decided to go to St Mawgan as we wanted to relax and have a drink without the worry of being moved on or waking up to a parking fine. Little to no phone signal there too which could end up being a little bit of a problem. It’s all about pulling up and enjoying the view with this one.

    Stayed here all day, over night and all next day. Stunning view of beach and sunset. 5 min walk from beach, showers and toilet via coastal path. Double yellow lines but lucky not to get ticket in window from warden.

    Spectacular place to overnight, several other campers, felt nice and safe. Room for about 9 vans I’m guessing. No traffic warden came. Road busy in the day, but not bad overnight. Left up the coastal path is the Hangout, a great coffee place by surf sheds to hire stuff for lessons. Right down the coastal path to Watergate Bay. Surfers beach, they arrive for the best surf tides. Beautiful place

    An amazing view but NOT FREE. Traffic warden fined us at 6.37am in the morning so if you do stay leave EARLY! But other than that, wow, amazing!

    Beautiful lay-by, 5 min walk to hot £1 shower and beach. If you stay here over night, leave early early. I tried to stay 1 night and was woken up by a traffic warden at 7:30am, they will fine you.

    Lovely evening sunset, strayed a night no problem (no parking ticket in the morning it was full all night) £1.00 per minute shower is fabulous from 8am till 5pm.just down in the centre toilets.

    Great spot! Stunning view, but sadly double yellows in the lay-by coupled with a slanted sleep of 4 degrees. Stay one night with no trouble so it was worth the risk.

    Amazing view but a double yellow line.
