What customers say

Beautiful, peaceful spot with big sites & clean facilities (solar showers!). Lovely moorland location, friendly staff, cute farm animals. Campfires okay. Most loved it, but some noted a lack of staff & noise from others. Narrow approach roads a minor hitch.

Ubaid N.

Yurt (five person)

Liked Very nice yurt well-equipped, wood burning stove kept us well heated. Enough room for 5-6 people. Picnic table outside and bbqs allowed. Clean toilets, play area for kids and many farm animals around

Disliked There were no lights inside the yurt so got very dark inside at night and toilets were a bit of a walk from the yurt

Liked A great area to be, have a camp fire in superb surroundings and chill out. The wash down areas, toilets and showers were excellent. The home made minted lamb burgers they sold were very tasty. I very much enjoyed my stay there and will return.

Route directions

Heading West on the A30 out of Launceston take the first right signposted to St Breward (several miles after Jamaica Inn). This takes you across a cattle grid onto the open moor. Follow this road without turning off (ignoring all turnings for either Blisland or St Breward) for approximately 3 miles and the South Penquite entrance land will come up on your right.

Local attractions

Have a pint or a fizzy drink where smugglers once rose a toast to their pursuits; Cornwall’s famed Jamaica Inn (15 minutes’ drive) is within striking distance of South Penquite Farm. That’s just one of the popular things to do around Bodmin Moor: others include fly fishing and moor walks at Colliford Lake (20 minutes), hiking in the Golitha Falls National Nature Reserve (25 minutes) or alpaca trekking (20 minutes). Of course, the Cornwall coast has a fierce reputation too. Squeeze through the Squeezy Belly Alley in Port Isaac (half an hour) and board a boat tour to spy on seals, dolphins and Tintagel Castle. If you’d like to see it up close instead, the clifftop castle of Tintagel Castle (35 minutes) really isn’t that far off. Merlin’s cave at Tintagel will introduce you to the idea of magic, but there’s more of that at The Museum of Witchcraft and Magic in Boscastle (half an hour). Just save some time for the surf, as Polzeath beach (40 minutes) is one of Cornwall’s most popular surfing beaches.
