  • Cornish estate set around a 17th-century mansion
  • A 36-acre woodland and garden setting 15 minutes' drive from Newquay
  • Shop, games barns, library and large field for ball games on site
Set between Padstow and Newquay, and 15 minutes' drive away from each, Trewan Hall Camping Site should be a lovely little place for a Mid Cornwall break. The site has been developed on an old Cornish estate around the 17th-century mansion of Trewan Hall, and carefully maintained with traditional building techniques to blend in with its 36-acre woodland and garden surroundings. And speaking of gardens, they’re lush – have a look at the site pics… For families, the Hill family has added all sorts of little touches. During the high season only, there's a 25-metre outdoor swimming pool open from 10am to 6pm. Evening entertainment is also on throughout July. Available at all times is a large field for ball games in front of the Hall, a wooden playground and a library and writing room. Barns have also been set aside for table tennis, with an additional barn housing a pool table set for teenagers and adults. When it's time to sit down with a snack of some kind, head to the fully-stocked shop, which is open nearly 14 hours per day in high season (with shorter hours in low season). There are two different areas to pick a pitch from at Trewan Hall Camping Site: one aimed at families near the play park, shop and barns, and the other more secluded in a bigger field – in both, you can pitch up where you like to have plenty of room, with the owners managing bookings so that there are always more pitches than people and what’s on offer never feels overcrowded.

Electric grass pitch

Liked Vertually everything . Very quiet,beautiful layout, excellent showers etc, well equipped shop, lovely big pool, very friendly and helpful staff, convenient for all the beaches as well as Padstow and Newquay

Disliked No marked pitches in the main area. Not a problem for us as it wasnt very busy but at busier crimes I guess it could get a bit crowded as the only stipulation is to be 6m apart from your neighbours.

Local attractions

Trewan Hall is near the centre of Cornwall with easy access to the north coast beaches and within easy driving distance of most of Cornwall’s attractions. For a short stroll, head into the old market town of St Columb Major (five minutes' drive), where there’s a 15th-century church, surf store, antique shop and fish and chip shops. The closest beach to Trewan Hall is Mawgan Porth (10 minutes). Gorgeous Watergate Bay is 10 minutes’ drive away, or head to the seven bays clustered around the village of St Merryn (15 minutes), a few miles from Padstow. Two top Cornwall spots within 10 miles are Newquay (15 minutes), where you should wriggle into your wetsuit for some stunning surfing (surf schools are all over town and nearby for the uninitiated), and Padstow (15 minutes) for the Camel Trail and Camel Estuary Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Zipwires, biodomes and more can be had at the Eden Project (25 minutes).
