  • Friendly Cornwall campsite in a flat 10-acre field with sea views
  • A 10-minute walk to St Agnes, Trevaunance Cove and Trevellas Cove
  • Direct access to local footpaths and acres of space for games
Tin mines, cool coves and steam railways… Sunny Corner is a top pick for laidback outdoor breaks on Cornwall's north coast, with plenty of things to do in easy reach. This small and well-maintained campsite is in a 10-acre field on the edge of the village of St Agnes with stunning sea views, spacious pitches and easy access to all the village's amenities (about 10 minutes' walk away). Families certainly aren’t forgotten here, as the site is well equipped for all ages. There’s a spacious open field where the kids can blow off steam and make new friends in a safe and welcoming environment. And in terms of practicalities, Sunny Corner has modern toilets and showers for guests, all of which are well-maintained and a short walk away from the pitches. Whenever you need to restock on the essentials (local produce like milk, eggs, bread, bacon and a few items that are easy to forget), head to the small shop that sits at reception. The shop also sells and hires out firepits, plus firewood, kindling and firelighters. Sunny Corner is in the area of St Agnes known as Wheal Kitty, so you’ll only be a short five-minute walk from the historic buildings of the Blue Hills Tin Mine, where there’s a small exhibition about Cornwall's industrial past. Trevaunance Cove, a spectacular lifeguarded beach, and the more secluded Trevellas Cove are around a 10-minute walk away, while other coastal havens like Perranporth can be reached in as little as a 10-minute drive. Food on the brain too? Don’t worry, as you’ll be well set with a number of family-friendly cafés, pubs, restaurants and a couple of small supermarkets in the village that are easy to reach on foot within roughly 10-15 minutes.

Non-electric grass campervan, tent or trailer tent pitch

Liked Great flat pitches, plenty of space and very peaceful. The loos and showers were perfectly clean and well stocked with toilet roll and soap. The little shop on site was great for getting the breakfast bacon, and gas canisters that we had ran out of, and was very reasonably priced. Would definitely stay here again and would recommend to anyone as a family or group.

Disliked Price
Shop wasn’t open at advertised time

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: The shop did not open for one night as my Mum had a serious fall and I had to rush off to her home I did not have time to put a sign up, on the shop it says to ring my number if I am not there, I did not receive any calls. I do not feel that this deserves a 7/10.

The pitches were very big you…

Non-electric grass campervan, tent or trailer tent pitch

Liked Wow I loved this site. What a lovely stay we had, 100% will be back. Warm welcome.
Great pitches on level ground. Walk to town or the st Agnes beach front was lovely. Also walking distance to trevellas cove which is a beautiful sunset/sunrise spot.
Hosts have really poured love into this campsite. What topped it for us was the facilities, hot, clean and well thought out showers with plenty of hooks and changing space. Toilets clean and unique with a women’s touch, you had everything you needed to make your stay as comfortable as possible. Thank you to the hosts we will be back to stay again and again.

Disliked Absolutely nothing! 10/10

Liked Everything! The campsite is well maintained with excellent attention to detail. Fabulous loos and shower rooms. We loved the clear and informative signage. Views and sunsets were amazing too.
Kate and her team were friendly and welcoming. Nothing was too much trouble.

We can't wait to come back!

Local attractions

Get your hands on Cornish tin products to take home with you and see how the family goes about the ancient tin mining process at Blue Hills Tin Mine (five minutes' walk). After a lesson on the tin mining industry, there’s rockpooling at Trevaunance Cove (10 minutes' walk) or surfing at Perranporth (10 minutes' drive) to keep up the pace. Indeed, while there are so many places within around 10 minutes’ drive of the site, it doesn’t hurt to go a little further out, especially when there are coastal hotspots like Newquay (25 minutes) or Falmouth (35 minutes) to hand. These bigger places have plenty of entertainment in the form of watersports, amusement parks or shopping… and for steam train trips, there's Lappa Valley (30 minutes). Cornwall’s well-known for its coast, of course, but there are also some gorgeous gardens that make for a great afternoon out in this southern part of England. There are the rainforest biomes of the huge Eden Project (50 minutes), which has a daring zipwire and giant swing too – or Trebah Garden (45 minutes) for a taste of the sub-tropical beside the coast.
