What customers say
A spacious, friendly, well-kept spot with ace, clean facilities (hot showers!). Owners are a ripper and super helpful. Loads of room to pick your site, a doggo exercise area, and a handy shed with a fridge & charging. Great base for exploring, though the airbase can get a bit noisy.

Two night stay at Lamarth Farm Campsite…
Unpowered grass tent, campervan or trailer tent site
Liked Two night stay at
Lamarth Farm Campsite & Holiday Cottage
If you are looking for a great Campsite in Cornwall, We highly recommend Lamarth Farm near Helston!
Rachel & Luke, the site owners are very welcoming , friendly and knowledgeable, helping with information on local beaches, shops or days out.
The site is a flat grass field , sheltered by hedgerows. There is a seperate enclosed Dog exercise area, a farm area, football goals even a swingball! You have views of the Sea and also of RNAS Culdrose, and very dark skies at night which is great for star gazing.
The toilets are very clean and well maintained, the showers were hot and again very clean. There is a covered washing up area , plants for sale, and a hut that is full of books, local information, and things for kids to play with on the field. There is a fridge freezer for campers to use as well as a kettle and plenty of plugs to charge your phone or battery packs, even an air pump to blow up beds etc.
They really have thought of everything to make your stay great!
There are goats, chickens and ducks in the farm area that was very popular with the children, you can buy fresh eggs from the site at a very reasonable price too.
Today (Monday) there was a visiting Crepe and Coffee van there at 8.30am serving lovely coffee and amazing sweet or savoury Crepes 😋
You can see RNAS Culdrose from the site and get to see lots of aircraft flying over which adds to your stay.
Well definitely be stopping here again in the future!

From the manager: It was such a pleasure to welcome you and your family Ahmed- chatting and hearing about all the wonderful places you had visited. A shame the weather wasn't kinder- next time! Harry would also love to show your little boy where the chickens lay their eggs and sleep at night (he was fascinated ) A polite and friendly boy- credit to you both. I hope your journey home was a good one.
See you again, Rachel

Excellent campsite would highly recommend
Unpowered grass tent site (solo)
Liked Excellently positioned campsite run by the superb friendly Rachel and her husband Luke. Very handy for walking the south west coast path. Lovely short cut grass, very neatly kept site. Very clean facilities. Excellent little hut with fridge freezer and kettle and phone charging sockets. Lots of lovely little touches. Rachel and Luke work very hard keeping everything running smoothly. Love the choose your own pitch type of place, with a chilled relaxed vibe. Very quiet at night. Good mobile signal too!

From the manager: Thank you for your review Sarah, it was a pleasure to meet you and welcome you to our campsite. Glad you enjoyed your stay and it was lovely to chat & hear all about your adventures each day on the SWCP
Your feedback has been noted and very constructive thank you- I have actually popped a little note on the bins reminding people to recycle! Doing our bit for the environment is so important sometimes it slips peoples minds when out of routine on holiday.
We look forward to seeing you again if you come to this part of Cornwall - good luck with the rest of your SWCP adventures :) Rachel & Luke
