Small, friendly and family-run site on a five-acre smallholding
Within 10 minutes' drive of Perranporth's surfing beaches
Half an hour's drive from Bodmin Moor and Paradise Park zoo

Fond of fishing? Sometimes like a drop of cider? You’ll love it at Lakewell Touring and Camping Site, where there’s a fishing lake in the grounds for guests’ exclusive use and a cider farm with tours and tastings five minutes’ drive down the road. If apple-based tipples and angling aren't top of your agenda, it's handy that this peaceful family-run site on a smallholding is conveniently close to surf beaches and cycle trails, coastal paths and moorland meanderings. It’s also less than five minutes’ drive from the village of Goonhavern, where there’s a pub and a shop, and, for those touring the area by public transport, bus links to popular seaside and surfing spots like Perranporth and Newquay. Whether you’ve spent your days riding the waters, contemplating them, or doing something completely different, you’ll probably return ravenous, and if the pub and its menu seem too far to stray, you can pick up supplies in Perranporth or Newquay and have a barbecue back at base. Save a sausage for the dog, of course… canine pals are welcome on site too. With the waves of Perranporth a 10-minute drive away, the site’s popular with surfers, and proprietors Peter and Jane have installed an outdoor tap for the sluicing off of wetsuits and other gear.

Non-electric grass pitch

Liked: It would be unfair for me to say anything bad about the site as never stayed long enough to look around . We picked this site as they have wifi but on arriving found out it is in reception and on a small grass verge so we couldn’t stay as needed to rely on wifi for work commitments so had to book a different camp site

Disliked: Wifi only in certain places maybe write that on your description then it wouldn’t cause disappointment

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Thank you for your feed back. we will look into this.

Non-electric grass pitch

Liked: Beautiful setting, well kept site, spotless bathrooms. Friendly hosts.

Disliked: 24/7 traffic noise (it’s on a main road so to be expected) Someone living just behind the hedge in the adjacent wood having a large bonfire on second afternoon/evening. Not under control of the site owners, but smoke & debris spoilt our evening.

Electric grass pitch

Liked: Really enjoyed our stay . The pitch was a lovely size and they don't mind if you go side on, which was great for the sun. We were in the top field close to amenities. Superbly clean showers and toilets. Haggis is a lovely, friendly, helpful man. They don't mither you, we found the camp site very easy going. Just how we like it. We also met people that go there every year. They love it. The camp site is in a great location to explore Cornwall and also close to the Saints trail , which is good for bikes, walking , dogs , horses. Straight into Perranporth. The price is very reasonable to. What's not to like . Be seeing you next year all being well. Thanks for a wonderful stay. Cornwall is beautiful, that obviously helps.

Disliked: Not a long spray time on the showers but tbh it didn't really bother us. That's it!

Local attractions

The beaches of Perranporth and Newquay (15 minutes) are a haven for surfers of all levels, and have schools offering tuition in wave riding... but there are plenty of other ways to travel about this part of Cornwall too. There’s horse trekking and beach galloping on the menu in Perranporth and bikes to hire in Cambrose (15 minutes) for a coast-to-coast trail along the old miners’ route to Cornwall’s southern shores. Perranporth’s also the place to pick up the South West Coast Path for sea views and wildlife walks at height, and it’s half an hour to Bodmin if you want to see some of the county’s inland landscapes. On the edge of the ancient heaths, the Golitha Falls Nature Reserve has bluebell woods lining a long gorge that gives way eventually to a series of crashing cascades. It’s a similar distance to Bolventor for jaunts around the real Jamaica Inn and the resting place, so ‘tis said, of Excalibur at Dozmary Pool. For close-up encounters with wildlife, pack your earplugs and stop off at the Screech Owl Sanctuary (20 minutes), or hang with the red pandas, Asian short-clawed otters and an ark-load of avian life at Paradise Park (30 minutes). Soothe any ruffled feathers with a flit round Healy’s Cornish Cyder Farm, five minutes away, and once refreshed, take a quick chuff on the restored steam trains of the Lappa Valley Railway (15 minutes).
