General
- Peaceful pub site on the shores of Stithians Lake
- Award-winning gardens
- Fishing and watersports available
It’s bottoms up at peaceful The Golden Lion Inn - Lakeside Camping on the shores of Stithians Lake, where you can enjoy a tipple and some top-notch pub grub at the inn just a flower bed away, either in the oak-beamed bar in front of one of the three log fires, or alfresco overlooking the award-winning gardens.
No need to worry either about not catching your zzzzzzzs after an evening out – the pub is food and family-oriented so there’s no concern about shenanigans after closing time.
All pitches are level, and the site also has internet access, a playground, and fishing and (non-motorised) watersports available. It’s within easy reach of local towns Redruth, Falmouth, Helston and Truro, and is less than an hour’s drive from the award-winning Eden Project.

Leave the westbound A30 at the Redruth exit and head through the centre of town in the direction of Lanner on the Falmouth road. At the top end of town there will be a junction with traffic lights where you should take the left hand turn signposted towards Four Lanes and Helston.
Go up the hill past Morrish's Fish and Chips on the right-hand side. At the crest of the hill, take the left-hand turn signposted Stithians Lake and Golden Lion Inn. Stay on the road for approximately two miles until you see the Golden Lion on the left across the causeway at the North end of Stithians Lake. The site is accessed from the rear of the pub car park.
Local attractions
If you can drag yourself away from The Golden Lion, you’ll find loads of active options nearby. This area is said to be among the windiest in Cornwall, so grab your wetsuit and go to the Stithian Lakes Watersports Centre, just 100 yards away from the park and with sailing and canoeing as well as windsurfing hire and tuition. There’s also a climbing wall, trim trail, children’s play area, Wow balls and fishing available, or you can take a lakeside walk or a picnic if the day’s a bit too still for surfing.
Relax on the beach or catch the waves there instead – north and south coast beaches are a 15 minute drive away. Hire a bike at the site and check out the local cycle trails or go mountain biking, or at a canter with the horse-riding available nearby. Golf, tennis and the attractions Poldark Mine and Flambards Theme Park are also within easy reach.
Stithians Showground is just five minutes away and has regular events throughout the year, from the Stithian Show in July to the West of England Steam Engine Society with Steam Rally, the VW Owners Club and the YFC Country Fair in August, as well as events organised by local groups including horse shows and dog agility clubs.
