  • Relaxed site on a small farm 10 minutes' drive from St Austell
  • Mevagissey and Lost Gardens of Heligan within 15 minutes' drive
  • Stream, lake and farm animals on site; campfire logs and eggs to buy
Pleasant indeed is life on site at Pleasant Streams Farm Camping, a relaxed rural Cornwall site a mile outside of the village of Sticker and 10 minutes’ drive from St Austell. If the name conjures up images of classic English countryside, then you’ve got it just about spot on: this is a place of pretty fields with a stream running through the site and a little lake where you can potter about in the rowing boat. The site’s ethos is on keeping things simple and natural: kids are encouraged to play on rope swings in the trees and you can all look out for wildlife including rabbits, badgers, hawks and owls. Embracing outdoor life here also means meeting the site’s resident miniature goats, Bluebell and Rosie, and the pair of pigs called Del Boy and Rodney. There are chickens and ducks on site too, and you can buy their eggs for a tasty breakfast. And what about an evening meal? Well, those can be cooked over a campfire (as long as you use one of the designated fire rings) and there are sacks of logs available to buy on site to help you along. Pick up supplies at the farm shop 10 minutes’ walk away or pop into St Austell for more shopping options. Filling your days around here should be easy – the stunning Roseland Heritage Coast is only about 15 minutes’ drive away for days out in the likes of the Lost Gardens of Heligan, Mevagissey and Charlestown, or you can get to the north coast in about half an hour. In keeping with the natural ethos, facilities here are simple but guests will have access to showers and toilets (both compost loos and flushing toilets).

Non-electric grass tent pitch (medium)

Liked: A lovely campsite that is located in a very quiet area. But it is still close to the beach and a big town that is about 5min drive away. You’re allowed to pick your own pitch which is great. The showers and toilets were kept nice and clean. If your lucky enough to have some clear sky’s at night you will be able to see loads of stars as it’s in a low light pollution area. We would stay on the site again with out a problem.

Non-electric grass tent pitch (medium)

Liked: cute campsite with really nice surroundings and beautiful scenery - lakes, blackberry bushes, woodlands, plants, ducks, horses! pub an easy walk away and a convenient location to drive off to other places. friendly people there and a quiet atmosphere, which was nice.

Disliked: toilets and showers weren't the best quality and weren't the cleanest. better than having none at all, but just not the best. also no real washing up facilities which could be tricky for some people?

Non-electric grass campervan pitch

Liked: Clean site, good showers could do with a little maintenance. Manager chap was friendly. Flat site.

Disliked: Had to pay additional fee, £10 per night for awning as pitch-up filters let us down during booking. No washing up facilities, or elsan point, had to put down the toilet. Phone signal awful, could also be a good thing.
