The farm before the pop-up was created (added by manager 21 mar 2022)

  • Dog-friendly pop-up site with views of Mount’s Bay
  • A 20-minute walk from Newlyn and 30 minutes from Mousehole
  • A short walk from a pub; rural walks in the surrounding area
Views? Tick. Coastal spots within walking distance? Trewarveneth Manor Farm Camping has that too. In fact, this small, family-friendly pop-up site has a lot to like. It’s within walking distance of Newlyn, Paul and Mousehole (all characterful villages) and there are views over Mount’s Bay and St Michael’s Mount, a castle island just off the coast. If that’s not enough, the countryside surrounding the bay is made up of low hills and sandy beaches. Local communities include Penzance, Marazion, Perranuthnoe and Porthleven, some very well-liked Cornwall destinations, and rightly so, with lots of different offerings. First, though, to Mousehole you go… with cottages around a little harbour, two safe sandy beaches and a host of places to eat and things to do (including coastal wildlife cruises on board the Cormorant and heritage walks around the village), you’ll be glad to be just half an hour’s walk away There’s a regular bus service from Mousehole to Newlyn and Penzance to take your adventures further afield. If you’d rather get in some peaceful pedals, it’s also the starting point for a cycling trail to Marazion. The village of Paul, just 15 minutes’ stroll away across the fields, is home to the church of St Pol de Leon and a pub that serves excellent beer and food. That’s just the fuel you’ll need for rural walks all within easy reach of Trewarveneth Manor Farm – any dogs you bring are likely to enjoy these routes. Back at base, the site has portable toilet and shower facilities, as well as a washing-up area and drinking water, but no hot water.

Non-electric grass and earth tent or trailer tent pitch

Liked: The site is a lovely quiet location and has a nice view.

Disliked: Very basic. There was no hot water for washing hands and washing up, no toilet roll, no hand soap, not even a scoop for the sawdust in the compost toilets. The showers were just a farm trailer with no privacy. No lighting anywhere onsite. And worst of all the access road is not suitable for vehicles and has trashed the underside of my car. I left early and it was a very expensive one night camping as my car is now rattling so will need to get fixed. I phoned when I arrived but no one picked up.

Non-electric grass and earth tent or trailer tent pitch

Liked: Incredible location with an incredibly warm host. Water was easy to find and tasted nice. The showers were quirky and quite liberating. Very peaceful and quiet. Can’t say anything bad about it really. Just what I needed.

Disliked: I rather enjoyed the drive into the field but my car probably didn’t 😅

Non-electric grass and earth tent or trailer tent pitch

Liked: Nice place to stay with a great view. Pub was only a 5 minute walk away. Like the use of an old livestock trailer as a shower.
