  • Coastal site with dog-friendly grassy pitches on a family-run farm
  • A 15-minute drive from Looe, Adrenalin Quarry and Wild Futures
  • Walking distance from beaches, cafés, pubs, shops and the coastal path
Craving the seaside with all the cream and sprinkles on top? Well, there are tasty beaches, fishing villages and coastal walks all around Trewall Farm Campsite. It’s a truly Cornish stay at this coastal site and the sea will never seem far away, as the dog-friendly and family-friendly grassy pitches look right over the big blue – and Whitsand Bay (10 minutes’ drive) and Looe’s fishing town are right in view too (15 minutes’ drive for this traditional little place). As for your neighbours, you’ll be sharing this working farm with cows and sheep. Toilets, showers and a fresh water tap have their place on the farm, so you won’t be without the basic comforts. As for taking in the view, perhaps you'll want to lay down a blanket on the flat pitches or gather everyone about for a game – there’s plenty of space to do either. You might be surprised where your feet can take you from this site, whether it’s local fish and chip shops or the South West Coast Path (20 minutes’ walk). Downderry village’s well-stocked shop, pub on the shore, bistro or vegan café down by the dog-friendly beach are all within 20 minutes’ walk too. Seaton’s the next place over and 35 minutes’ walk away – it has a long stretch of sand and the wildlife-packed Seaton Valley Countryside Park. It's pretty well primed for picnics too, so you may want to head to local farm shops or supermarkets within 10 miles of the site to get ready.

Non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch

Liked: Spotless facilities, peaceful with great views down to looe. Owner makes you very welcome. A great campsite with good level plots. Also not forgetting mobile network is excellent with good phone signal for those of you still need a connection to the outside world.

Simon D. The reviewer booked through Pitchup.com

Non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch

Liked: Hilltop site with views of the sea from every pitch. Pitches are arranged in one long row, so the view is never obscured. The bathroom / washing up facilities are immaculately kept and quite homely. They're very practical with hooks and places to put bottles etc. Paul, the host, is lovely. Downderry, a stroll away, has a cliff-top pub and a really good tapas place.

Disliked: The beach has concrete flood/erosion defences that detract from it's charm. However, there are beaches like Sharrow a short drive away that are spectacularly beautiful.

Non-electric grass touring pitch

Liked: Can't say I used anything other than chemical disposal, but everything looked clean and tidy. Amazing views over to looe.

Disliked: Not a campsite issue, but the approach lane is narrow.

Non-electric grass touring pitch

Liked: Beautiful views over the sea. Great site to enjoy the natural surroundings. Very peaceful. Large pitches. Located next to a working farm so the sheep come and say hello. Really clean facilities. Lovely and friendly owner. This is just up the road for us so we will be back - lots! Hidden gem!

Local attractions

Things might seem easygoing so far, but there’s just the place nearby to raise the stakes. Adrenalin Quarry (15 minutes’ drive) lives up to its name, thanks to its aqua park, go-karting circuit and 490-metre zipwire (that’s if you have the courage to take the leap from the 50-metre cliff). Segways are the sport of choice at Mount Edgcumbe House and Country Park (half an hour). This historic park by the sea has more than just coastal views: it’s also an estate with activities from survival courses to archery, watersports and circus skills (stilts, anyone?). For the animal world, some fur (or feather) therapy takes place at Porfell Wildlife Park & Sanctuary (half an hour). There’s the opportunity to be a keeper for a day both here and at Wild Futures (15 minutes), a local monkey sanctuary. Rainforest biomes are the territory for a whole load of tropical plants and that’s the tune at Eden Project (45 minutes). Polperro (half an hour) is along the coast in the same direction, so perhaps you’ll want to pair your trip there with a visit to the large fishing village, where walks, beaches and fishing trips are rife.
