  • Family-run site a short walk from pubs in Ashton and Breage
  • A five-minute drive to Porthleven's beach, harbour and restaurants
  • Playground on site; firepits for hire and logs for sale
According to Greek mythology, the original ‘Elysian Fields’ were meadows, a haven that provided sanctuary and breathed new life into all those worthy of entering. While Cornwall's Elysian Fields are in no means mythological, they are a properly splendid place to unwind… Set between the little villages of Breage and Ashton, the family-run site has seven acres of space and scenic views towards Tregonning Hill, as well as distant glimpses of the sea and cliffs of the Lizard peninsula. Pitch up here and you’ll be able to stroll along quiet footpaths to the local villages or walk to the top of Tregonning Hill, which stands at 194 metres and gives views from coast to coast over west Cornwall, including Mount’s Bay and St Ives. More adventurous walkers can explore the Godolphin Estate, while those who’ve come along for the coast can take a short drive to the ancient harbour at Porthleven or gorgeous Praa Sands beach. The site has its own bar and restaurant, Tony's Tavern (open during high season only), with draught Cornish beers and cider. Cornish breakfasts and lighter breakfast baps are available in the mornings between 9am and 11am, and a range of evening meals are on offer between 6pm and 9pm. Takeaway meals can be delivered to the pitches if you prefer. To make your stay more comfortable, picnic benches, windbreaks and firepits can be hired, with a plentiful supply of kiln-dried logs on sale in the shop to help warm up cooler evenings. Also on site are a playground, a small shop (open during high season; opening hours are displayed on the door, but outside of those hours, the shop can also be opened upon request), a laundry room with coin-operated washing machines and a tumble dryer. Guests also have use of two large freezers, a fridge, an iron and ironing board, and a microwave.

Electric grass pitch (XL)

Liked ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

We had an absolutely fabulous 5-night stay and genuinely couldn't fault it!

All of the staff were so friendly, kind and incredibly helpful, which made us feel really welcome from the moment we arrived. The toilets and showers were always super clean and tidy and a massive bonus, the showers were super powerful and actually HOT!! 🙌😂

The pitches were a brilliant size with plenty of space and the play park was perfect for our kids aged 4, 8 and 10.

We especially loved the whole vibe of the campsite. It was just so chilled and relaxed, which is exactly what you want from a camping trip.

We had such a lovely 5 nights and were genuinely sad to leave. We will absolutely be returning next year! 🏕️❤️

Disliked Nothing!!

Electric grass and earth pitch (large)

Liked Location, with the access path at the back of the site, you can easily walk to the villages at either side of the campsite and can access the south west coastal path. It was really peaceful, however, the site was not at capacity and rather empty which meant it did lack a little atmosphere in the tavern. Staff were really helpful and polite - just call the onsite mobile and they sort it. The shower block provides lots of privacy with individual toilets and sinks. The facilities are what makes this place stand out.

Disliked The cost - we paid just over £400 for a 10mSq pitch for 6 nights. 100% would return if it was a little cheaper - might explain why the site was so quiet in the middle of August.

Liked Really loved the whole site — it had such a welcoming feel. The toilets were spotless and genuinely well looked‑after, which made the visit even nicer. And with it being quiet, it felt calm and easy to enjoy. A lovely experience all round.

Geodesic dome

Liked The geodome was beautiful- so comfortable and well kitted out. King size bed, chest of drawers, TV, kettle, toaster plus small luxuries like robes, soaps, tea and coffee. Add in the hot tub, outside kitchenette with small fridge, sink, and gas barbecue and we were completely set up! Private use of one of the shower rooms with our own key - it was like a hotel. Will definitely return.

Disliked Wifi was not great so it was not possible to stream Netflix or Amazon from a laptop to the TV

Local attractions

Having gazed out over Tregonning Hill, it's a fine idea to amble over there for a closer look. It’ll take you around 45 minutes of leisurely walking to get to the top for some excellent views over both north and south coasts and plenty of historical info on the old mining pits and war memorial. Likewise, the beaches you’ve glimpsed from afar look pretty fab from up close too. The sands of Porthleven, three miles away, are the nearest, and there are plenty of others a short drive away, including Praa Sands and Marazion (from where you can take a boat or cross the causeway to St Michael’s Mount). Arty types may like to spend a day in St Ives, half an hour’s drive away, taking in the exhibits of Tate St Ives and the Barbara Hepworth Museum and Sculpture Garden. Perhaps less highbrow but equally entertaining is the Cornish Seal Sanctuary in Gweek.
