Cornwall may be famed for its savoury pasties, but you can expect an altogether sweeter treat when you stay at Orchard Springs Campsite. The two-acre site is on the outskirts of the town of Bodmin, but green fields and an orchard and stream give it a country escape feel. The centre of Bodmin is less than two miles from Orchard Springs, and Bodmin Jail, Cornwall’s Regimental Museum, the Bodmin Town Museum and Bodmin’s Obelisk are all within 35 minutes’ walk of the site. Bodmin also has plenty of shops, pubs and restaurants where you can pick up souvenirs and supplies, scull some local brews or have a taste of Cornish cuisine. If you’re not feeling up to the trip into Bodmin, an on-site shop in the reception hut has the basics you’ll need, as well as some Orchard Springs home-baked bread and pastries. A campers’ kitchen with microwave, fridge freezer and ice blocks is also available for guests’ use. A toilet block built by local craftspeople rounds out facilities, with individual shower rooms giving you a little extra privacy during your stay. Orchard Springs Campsite opened in 2018: its owners spent the 10 years before that running another successful site in the region.

Electric grass tent or motorhome pitch

Liked We loved our stay here! The showers & toilets were kept very clean. Although we didn’t use the onsite kettle and microwave it was a very nice touch to have and have never seen this on a campsite before. We enjoyed the fresh coffee & pastries in the morning. The site itself was very well kept and the owners were lovely!
We would definitely stay here again.

Disliked Nothing!

Electric grass tent or motorhome pitch

Liked Great facilities with lovely hot water, very clean and plenty of space. Owner very helpful and when there was an issue with another pitch playing loud music, they quickly addressed this.

Disliked As the site was quiet, the same family used the space to constantly kick footballs which caused a couple of near misses of people, vans and tents. I see on the website there is a field available for ball games, perhaps they could have been asked to use this.

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Thank you for your great review, we are sorry you had an issue with a family playing football, as you say we have a recreational field for ball games and we ask our customers to use this so as not to disturb fellow campers. Best wishes, David and Emma

Electric grass tent or motorhome pitch

Liked Everything! Really well laid out site with mixed camping, static vans, yurt and shepherd’s hut. We appreciated the grass was kept short and that the clippings were collected. A lot of sites leave them and then they get into the van on our shoes!
We also liked the option to order pastries for breakfast and lunch.
The loo and showers were very good too.
A lovely camping environment.

Disliked Nothing.

The only thing to mention here is that we couldn’t get a tv signal. It didn’t worry us but if tv is important to you, this may be an issue.

Local attractions

Fans of the BBC’s Poldark will recognise some of the place names in the area around Orchard Springs: the towns of Bodmin and Truro are close by, with Bodmin a short walk from the site and Truro a 35-minute drive. Poldark is synonymous with lingering shots of the Cornish moors, and tours can take you to some of the coves and mines that bring the show to life. This area of Cornwall has a lot more to it than filming locations. The Eden Project, a 20-minute drive away, is a top spot to get up close with nature in the outdoor gardens and tropical and Mediterranean biomes or, if you’re feeling brave, have a go on England’s longest zipwire. The Eden Project looks to the future, but if you’d prefer to dig around in the past there are plenty of historic sites close by. Get a feel for Victorian life at Lanhydrock House and Gardens, a 15-minute drive from Orchard Springs; a look at the Elizabethan era at Prideaux Place, 30 minutes away, or head back to Georgian times at Pencarrow, 10 minutes from the site. If the zip wire at the Eden Project got you geared up for a more active break, you can cycle or walk the Camel Trail – which passes through Bodmin on its way towards the fishing port of Padstow on the northern Cornish coast – or take to the seas at one of the highly-rated surfing beaches nearby.
