What customers say

Great Aussie spot for exploring Cornwall. Friendly hosts, good pub grub, and clean loos. Plenty of space on the sites. Can get a bit busy with showers in peak times, but a top recommendation for a ripper holiday.

Powered gravel and earth tent or trailer tent site

Liked Food was lovely home cooked.
Quite camp site.
Easy access to places around
(Penzance, Lands End, St Ives)

Disliked Toilet/Shower units, only two units to share between 10 pitches each tent had at least 3/4 people they be best to have a shower block and toilet block, positive they where clean every day

Recommend to friends Visit again

Great site if you want to get on with it and have a great base.

Local attractions

Gwinear village has its own 18-hole golf course (20 minutes' walk), a 10-acre site that's open to visitors during the mid and high season. Cycling or motoring down to Hayle (10 minutes' drive) will surely be next on your list: the town has a swimming pool, coast path access and plenty of beach space, with two separate stretches of sand. Heading a few miles up the coast, you'll arrive at golden Gwithian beach (10 minutes) where you can stop for a surf lesson. Slightly more to the north are wilder spots like Godrevy Point and Mutton Cove (both 15 minutes) where you can observe a seal colony and a gorgeous Victorian lighthouse. Indoor attractions of note include Tate St Ives (20 minutes), a top-rated modern art collection in an old fishing town that also houses the Barbara Hepworth Museum. Truro (40 minutes), Cornwall's one and only city, has a cathedral, cider farm, brewery and the Royal Cornwall Museum for further indoor times.
