  • Family-run farm site two miles from Penzance and Long Rock beach
  • Walking distance from Penzance, Chysauster Ancient Village and woods
  • Pub, pasty shop, shopping, harbour and footpaths a short walk away
Pretty Penzance is just two miles away from Kenegie Farm Campsite in the Cornwall countryside. Just off the coast, this family-run farm site is in a top spot for sandy beach days, boat trips and having the run of the coastline, among other activities, as it's 40 minutes’ walk away from Long Rock Beach, Penzance’s harbour and promenade and Chysauster Ancient Village (a historic heritage site). The pitches are planted in a large, regularly-mowed field off the side of the farm business and they boast some splendid country views, as you might expect. That includes local fields and hillsides, as well as resident wildlife passing through, including buzzards, deer and moorland ponies. There’s plenty of open, flat ground to get geared up for a game of ball or whip out a kite when the wind’s just right. Plus, with Penzance town centre down below, you’ll be a short walk away from shopping, trips from the boatyard, museums, galleries and good walking trails (there are more of those in Trevaylor Woods, 35 minutes’ walk away). The foodies among you might be happy to find that the site’s local pub is just 20 minutes’ walk away (that’s a yes to food and good ales) or there’s a popular pasty shop down at Long Rock Beach. The farm has been in the family for generations and the facilities for the site are of the pop-up style, so they remain quite simple and include portable toilets and water taps for convenience. The place is dog-friendly too, so you can bring your family pet along to join the fun.
