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. 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 whinny-ing features on site are the stargazing – when it's dark here, it's really dark, points out the Lakeside 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, some with optional electric hook-up. The well-maintained and recently modernised amenities block has free hot showers, free hot water, a washing machine and a tumble dryer. Wifi is available on site and bread, eggs and milk are for sale at reception.
The medieval market town of Camelford is a mile away and has shops and a leisure centre with indoor pool.
Open from 01/04/2018 to 31/10/2018

Check availability at Lakefield Caravan Park…
Many sites set a maximum occupancy of 6/8 people per pitch, so try breaking your booking down into smaller groups to generate more results. For example, if you’re a group of 10, enter 5 people in your initial search and then book 2 pitches.
However, where the pitch or accommodation occupancy allows it, you can make a booking for up to 30 adults and 30 children in one booking.
To book multiple pitches or accommodation, use the 'Special requests' box on the booking page to ask to be sited together. Complete the booking form for the first booking (you can add a password and save your card so that we remember your details). Then click "Make another booking like this" at the top of the confirmation page to make the next booking.
Large groups: check the listing page for any group restrictions set out in the terms and section titled ‘Please note’.
Large tents/caravans: check the restrictions on unit dimensions to ensure your unit is suitable for the space you will be provided with.

Lakefield Caravan Park is 1 mile north of Camelford on the B3266.
From Exeter, follow the A30 towards Launceston. Travel for a short distance past Launceston and exit at the Kennards House Junction for the A395 (towards Camelford). Continue on the A395 for about 10 miles until you come to a T-junction joining the A39. Turn left at the T-junction towards Camelford. Travel for approximately 2 miles and turn right (before Camelford) on to the B3314 via Slaughterbridge. At the next set of crossroads turn left onto the B3266. Lakefield is situated after 200 yards on your right.
To find Lakefield from the south-west, take the A30 towards Wadebridge, and at Wadebridge take the A39 towards Camelford. Follow this road for about 10 miles until you reach the outskirts of Camelford and a BP garage on your right. Take the first left after the petrol station towards Boscastle, the B3266. Follow this road for 1.5 miles, and Lakefield is situated on your left-hand side.
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 the tors 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 (ten 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 campsite and just outside the medieval market town of 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.

Many thanks for your review . We have had unprecedented weather in the last 6 weeks with 2 periods of snow and very heavy rain and have made every effort to prepare the site for the beginning of the season . Easter has been very early and temperatures have been cooler than the average for this time of the year.
Reception does have a large sign on the door and if I was driving a large vehicle and going somewhere new if I was unsure I would have stopped and asked where I should go instead of sailing down onto the site without thinking about the weather . We helped you to get out and provided you with the best provision we could to which you seemed happy. If you had been unhappy and wanted to find an alternative if you had said we would have given you a full refund.
With reference to heating in the toilet block very few sites provide this especially for the cost per night here . We are one of the cheapest sites in this area and are usually praised of the cleanliness of our facilities and have never had anyone expect central heating in the toilet block before.
I am to be honest surprised that with a large motor home you chose to book a grass electric pitch in early April with the weather as it has been. At no point do we say we have hardstandings . We are sorry you didn’t enjoy your stay.
