  • Cornwall countryside site with spectacular views
  • Four miles from St Austell and six from the Eden Project
  • Dog-friendly site with level and well-drained pitches
There are reasons aplenty why many guests at the popular Court Farm Campsite near St Austell in Cornwall plot their return before they’ve even left: the site is in cracking Cornish countryside with the county’s most famed attractions only a few miles away, and you’ll get probably the friendliest welcome anywhere from Simon and Lisa. The family have been on this farm for generations, so recommending days out for guests is a doddle to the Court Farm lot, who can let you know the best pubs, best beaches and best things to do for miles around; if you look confuddled, they’ll even draw you a map. The Court Farm pitches are popular with guests too: level, well-drained, generously sized and set on the edges of the camping fields with plenty of room left for the kids to run about. Other favoured facilities include free temperature-controlled showers with a baby bath and changing mat area, hot water provided in the dishwashing area,a freezer facility and a launderette. Wifi is available. Dogs will get a warm welcome at Court Farm too, but please keep them on leads and away from the horses.

Stacey M. The reviewer booked through Pitchup.com

Electric optional grass tent pitch

Liked: Facilities were fantastic, owner was very accommodating for my disabled wife. Our dog absolutely loved it and it was very peaceful at night. Well maintained pitch with really clean showers and toilets. Spacious pitches so plenty of room around the tent and don’t feel really cramped to the next person.

Electric optional grass tent pitch

Liked: Fabulous friendly owners with immaculate shower block. And great Wi Fi. Showers hot but have to press button every 10secs. Pitches not completely level but ok. Top pitches get evening sun but was very windy and got brunt of the rain when I was there. Tractors loud as road runs by the hedge.

Local attractions

No road rage here: Court Farm is slap bang in the middle of Cornish attraction country, with most of Cornwall’s best-known places within 20 minutes’ drive of your pitch. Four miles away, the town of St Austell and its surroundings are the hub for many attractions and activities: the Clay Trail starts from here and the Wheal Martyn China Clay Country Park takes a look at Cornwall’s famous china clay heritage. Then to the beach for the sand and coves of St Austell Bay: look to the east for Gribben Head, part of an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and with the South Coast Path passing around it on its way to Poole (handy hint: that’s a long walk). Thirsty? Head for St Austell’s award-winning brewery for a well-earned tipple; you can buy a ‘Passport to Beer’ book here too telling the tasty tale of beer in the area. The sheltered hidden beach of Polkerris is 10 miles away from Court Farm (you might need to ask on site for detailed directions as they say it’s down a ‘blink and you’ll miss it’ turning). Bag some windsurfing and sailing courses here, have an ice cream at the beach café or munch a meal with a view at the Rashleigh Inn. From Polkerris it’s only a couple of miles to Fowey with its family beach at Readymoney Cove.
