  • Small, friendly and family-run site on the north Cornish coast
  • Just over a mile from Crackington Haven; coast path access to beach
  • Local bus stop 50 metres away at the hamlet of St Gennys
You'll be aware, obvs, that a site anywhere near any Cornish coast tends to be among scenery that's pretty terrific. And so it is at north Cornwall's Coxford Meadow Campsite, a small, friendly and family-run site in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty just over a mile from Crackington Haven. Pitch up among countryside and sea views at this peaceful park, where there's loads of green open space, roomy pitches and plenty of scope for play. The beach is five minutes' drive away (or a mile and a half's amble along the fab and famed South West Coast Path), and other fab and famed Cornish destinations like Widemouth Bay, Bude and Boscastle are within 15 minutes' drive. The site is popular with guests – and just right too – who come for the laidback vibe, the splendid scenery, the spacious pitches and the immaculate amenities; the play area in the centre of the pitching field has picked up a few plaudits too. All guests have access to spotless toilets and hot showers, a microwave, and a freezer for ice packs, as well as a pool table in reception for benign or intense family competitions. Getting out and about is easy peasy from here with the beach and the coast path so close, but if you'd prefer to let someone else ferry you around, the nearest bus stop is just 50 metres from Coxford Meadow's entrance at the local hamlet of St Gennys.

What customers say

This is a highly recommended, peaceful, and well-maintained campsite. Visitors consistently praise the exceptionally clean facilities, particularly the showers. The friendly and helpful owners are frequently mentioned, as is the site's quiet atmosphere. Its location is noted as convenient for coastal walks and public transport, with a bus stop nearby. Some mention the lack of Wi-Fi and occasional short shower timers, but these are minor points against an overwhelmingly positive experience.

Electric optional grass and gravel touring pitch

Liked Very friendly and helpful owners made us feel welcome from the word go. Good level pitches.
Showers and toilets were clean and tidy. Laundrette was well priced
Bus stop within 50 yards made getting to and walking the coast path a doddle.

Electric optional grass tent or trailer tent pitch

Liked A fantastic campsite. I was made to feel very welcome on arrival and shown the facilities. All nice and clean. Flat pitch for my tent, quiet and chilled atmosphere.
Helpful advice re public transport (bus stop right outside!) from campsite owners, who also were friendly to chat to during my stay. Would highly recommend this campsite, one I will definitely return to.

Electric optional grass tent or trailer tent pitch

Liked Lovely campsite with excellent facilities which were kept spotlessly clean. Great welcome from the owners who were always on hand to help with anything needed. Lovely walk of about 1/2 hour to the coast path, or a couple of miles downhill via small lane/woodland paths to the beach at Crackington Haven. Bus stop 2 minutes walk. Buses every 2 hours running north to Bude and south to Boscastle and Tintagel which we used to walk linear sections of the coast path and avoid driving. Wi Fi available in reception.

Local attractions

If you've holidayed here before, you should also be aware that Cornwall's beaches on the north and south side are almost all utterly spectacular, from the lengthy golden stretches of Summerleaze and Crooklets in Bude (each within 20 minutes' drive of the site) to the gentle waters of Looe and the wide sands of Polperro, both around an hour and five minutes away. And then there are the also utterly spectacular sandy specimens deep in Cornwall's west around Land's End: Sennen Cove, Mullion, Kynance Cove, Porthcurno… all within a couple of hours' drive and jolly well worth it too. Just over an hour away, have days at Falmouth (and the National Maritime Museum and must-do boat trips on the River Fal) and Polkerris, for its wide sandy cove, watersports and rockpooling. Coxford Meadow's also fably set for investigating the highlights of Tintagel (25 minutes), Port Isaac (35 minutes), the Camel Trail from Bodmin (45 minutes) to Padstow (55 minutes), and the wide expanses – and possible beast? – of Bodmin Moor (40 minutes).
