What customers say
This is a well-maintained campsite with spacious, clearly marked pitches, many featuring picnic tables. Visitors consistently praise the exceptionally clean and modern shower and toilet facilities, along with helpful and friendly owners. The site's quiet atmosphere and central location in South Cornwall are highlighted as excellent bases for exploring the region.

Electric grass pitch
Liked We have just come home from a 10 day stay, camping. We received a message from Annette to introduce herself and say our pitch was ready. We were greeted on site and had our choice of pitch. We were given recommendations on what was around including using the park and ride for St Ives and to visit magic in the skies at Lands End which was amazing. The toilets and showers were always immaculate and so was the washing up area. We did make use of the laundry facilities again with no issues. Annette came round one evening to check all was ok and to let us know there was a weather warning in place and if the power went out they would get it back on as soon as they could. We were fortunate as we missed the weather front. We even had a little four legged friend a tabby cat come to visit us daily which the kids befriended and named him Max. We will definitely be back as it was such a relaxed and chilled few days.
Disliked It would have been nice to have a little play area. This didn't affect our stay.

Spotless campsite, ideally located for lots of beaches.
Electric grass pitch
Liked Flat pitches, hot showers, spotlessly clean shower and toilet areas, very clean and decent size washing up facilities, clearly defined (and large!) pitches which each have a big wooden picnic table, friendly owners with great tips and advice, ideal location for going to lots of different areas of Cornwall and different beaches, washing machine and drier on site as well as fridge and freezer for ice pack swapping, peaceful and quiet- hardly any road noise. Can’t wait to come back! Best campsite we’ve stayed in!

Electric grass pitch
Liked Beautifully maintained campsite with fantastic flat spacious pitches. Accommodated our camper van with a large awning. Wooden picnic table also included. Annette the owner is lovely and showed us to our pitch.
Showers are hot and powerful with clean modern toilet facilities.
Wheal farm is in a great spot for exploring Cornwall with Praa sands beach only 15 minutes away.
The site was extremely peaceful, relaxed and quiet. All other campers were very respectful of each other which made for a great stress free stay.
We enjoyed every minute of our stay at Wheal Vreagh and would definitely return. Thank you so much Annette for a great stay.

Electric grass pitch
Liked Wheal Vray Farm camping is a quiet, well equipped site approx 3 miles to the west of Helston. The pitches are nicely maintained with electric hook-ups. Toilets, showers and washing up facilities are central to the pitches and spotless. Choice of beaches a short drive in either direction from Helston. Plenty of choice of shops, restaurants, pubs, cafes and supermarkets in Helston
Highly recommend, Patrick Parkes
