  • Cornwall site with adjacent equestrian centre for lessons and hacks
  • Lake on site with valley views
  • Peaceful family farm site with plenty of room for play
Why the long face? Because you didn't canter to Camelford for a Cornwall holiday surrounded by all things horse? Neigh problem: race to Lakefield Caravan Park to remedy. A quiet farm park on the north Cornwall coast close to Camelford, Lakefield has its own British Horse School and Riding for the Disabled Association-approved equestrian centre attached, with classes and rides for all ages and abilities from beginner to experienced. Your horse-mad little person can even trot along to a Saturday pony club or have a pony-owning experience day… Other winning features on site are the stargazing – when it's dark here, it's really dark, points out the Lakefield team; the quiet, secluded setting (no bars or clubs here) and the handy location: although it's secludedly set, Lakefield's on a B road so is an excellent base for galloping all over Cornwall. Kids – and dogs – can roam with impunity around the big field for off-lead exercise (for dogs, not kids) and the big grassy area set aside for ball games, handily within eyeballing sight of most pitches. The whole site covers five acres, with lake and valley views on a 54-acre smallholding. All pitches at Lakefield are grass and well-spaced. The well-maintained amenities block has free hot showers, free hot water, a washing machine and a tumble dryer. The medieval market town of Camelford is a mile away and has shops and a leisure centre with indoor pool.

What customers say

This peaceful campsite is praised for its friendly staff, large, well-kept pitches, and excellent, clean shower and toilet facilities, which are often described as hot and powerful. It's considered a good base for exploring North Cornwall, with nearby attractions like Tintagel Castle. Guests appreciate the quiet atmosphere, the opportunity to admire the resident horses, and the available dog walking field. Some minor points include occasional reports of sloped pitches and a need for more showers during peak times.

Non-electric grass tent pitch

Liked Great value for money!

Lakefield Caravan Park is in a fantastic location, with shops nearby and beautiful views all around. It's peaceful, convenient, and a great base for exploring the area.

Considering the very reasonable price, it offers excellent value.

Disliked the shower water temperature changed between hot and cold at times, but it wasn't a major problem for us.

Local attractions

Ramble over moors or surf over waves from Lakefield Caravan Park: both Bodmin Moor and the sandy beaches of north Cornwall are close by. At Bodmin, take a walk around Rough Tor and Brown Willy, Cornwall's two highest points among its best-known landmarks; at the coast, the strong waves of nearby Trebarwith Strand are eminently suitable for surfing – and the 800 metre-long sands a top pick for sunbathing. On land, the Camel Trail, 11 miles away, is a good ride for families and has cycle hire in several spots. Popular Cornish day trips are within driving distance at Boscastle (five miles), Port Isaac (10 miles) and Padstow (19 miles). This is legendary country too, with the castle and village of King Arthur's Tintagel, six miles along the coast, now one of the most visited attractions in the land. It gets quite madly busy at Tintagel in summer, so for a less crowded experience, visit the Arthurian Centre at Slaughterbridge, a mile and a half from the site just outside Camelford. For those who fancy fishing, Crowdy Reservoir – a couple of miles from Lakefield – has free coarse fishing for Environment Agency rod licence holders from March to October.
