  • Quiet family-run site on a working farm a mile from Polperro
  • A 10-minute drive to Looe and Lantic Bay; 40 minutes to Eden Project
  • Dog-friendly pitches with stunning views of the Cornish coast
A big choice of bays and a prime spot on a working farm above the historic fishing village of Polperro… that’s what you get at Great Kellow Farm, a family-friendly, dog-friendly site with the gorgeous Cornwall countryside scenery all around and sea views from its location high above the village. That mix of coast and country is excellent for walkers too – there are plenty of places to stroll nearby, including the South West Coast Path, which can be picked up less than a mile away in Polperro. It’s a short stroll down a steep hill to the village for pubs, restaurants, cafés, a shop and a bakery. (Many guests walk down and get a taxi back up – speak to site staff and they can recommend a taxi company.) If you’re keen to see more of the Cornish coast (and you should be, because it’s pretty spectacular) you can also get to places like Looe, Polruan and Lantic Bay within 15 minutes’ drive, or cast your net further to get to Fowey, 40 minutes away. Turning your attention inland, meanwhile, days out might take you to Lanhydrock House, Adrenalin Quarry or the famed biomes of the Eden Project. Facilities on site are low key but well kept: there’s a smart modern bathroom block with hot showers, family bathrooms and baby changing, plus plenty of other handy things including multiple water points, a recycling facility and a freezer for ice packs.

What customers say

This well-maintained working farm campsite offers stunning sea and countryside views, with Polperro a short, albeit steep, walk away. Visitors praise the friendly owners, clean and spacious wet-room style shower facilities, and the convenient on-site farm shop. Pitches are generally spacious and level. Access is via narrow country lanes, and the steep walk back from Polperro is a common observation. Some guests noted that in busy periods, the number of separate toilets could be insufficient.

Electric grass pitch

Liked Quite close to walk into Polperro about a mile

Disliked Rules state park 6m apart but even the marked pitches don’t make that possible. The car parked next to they hadn’t room to open passenger door! Non electric campers on the middle of the electric pitch field, kids had nowhere to play

Non-electric grass pitch

Liked Great flat ground with no stones and a sea view in the field I chose.
Facilities were spacious and clean.
owner was super friendly and defrosted the frozen sausages I bought from their little shop in their own microwave.
The only facility that would be amazing to add would be a couple of large fridges to keep food cold.

2 bedroom static caravan

Liked Excellent stay in one of the statics. Well provisioned, more so than your usual static in terms of utensils etc. Small shop on site was excellent.Good base for exploring this part of cornwall

Disliked The hill up to the site is a bit of a killer walking.

Local attractions

So, the seaside has caught your eye. It’s no surprise, because there’s a lot of that around this area, and a real load of activities. Your nearest beach days include Looe (10 minutes’ drive), where there’s crabbing and sandcastle crafting to get stuck into, Talland Bay (10 minutes), a quieter place for swimming, and Lansallos beach (10 minutes) with some splendid coastal walks around it. Lantic Bay (10 minutes) is a nice way to round off your seaside adventures, as is joining in with the fishing in Fowey (40 minutes), before moving onto the big activity centre at Adrenalin Quarry (25 minutes). The big question there is ziplining, go-karting or the inflatable assault course? Feeling like some nature or wildlife too? Porfell Wildlife Park & Sanctuary (15 minutes) is one of the closest spots to the site, while the Eden Project (40 minutes) has rainforest biomes further out. You might want to see Lanhydrock House and Garden (half an hour), a Victorian country house with some spectacular gardens, or the three-acre Hidden Valley Gardens (35 minutes) too.
