Sure is a small world!

No Cornish pasties from the Hayle, or anywhere, specialist bakers mentioned 

Philps in Hayle do do a perfectly edible Steak Pasty.

Actually, maybe they don't, maybe I should go and test another one whilst I'm down there next, just to check

Ann's Pasty Shop on The Lizard used to do a good pasty, but last one I had from there was pretty poor.

Hmm. Pasties.  Am taking note.

Thinking of a camping trip to Cornwall this summer. Anyone know any decent camp sites?

Not too rowdy, not too cramped, not too many ickle people running about, etc...

Had some good reports about "Deer Park" - one of the girls at the office went for a dirty weekend a few months back - not sure if its just cabins or if they have a touring park, either way worth a look....

I use http://www.calloose.co.uk/ at Leedstown halfway between Hayle and Helston. I don't go in Summer Holidays (Cornwall is PACKED then), and always fairly quiet when I go.  The pool has seen better days, and the clubhouse is 'functional' if you catch my drift, but the toilet/shower blocks are clean and roomy, and free (no search for 20p when it runs out at wrong time!).

Good location to explore the bottom part of Cornwall. Pasty from Philps in Hayle, Fish and Chips in St Ives in the evening, St Micheals Mount and Penzance just down the road, Lands End not far (but don't bother). If you are NT members, lots of coastline for walking along with free parking (non NT members have to pay). The Lizard is also just a few minutes drive.  Falmouth not far, nor is Truro. St Austell is about 40 mins, Eden Project about 10 mins more. Padstow is probably only 30 mins now that the A30 improvements around Indian Queens is complete, and is worth a quick visit imho.
