  • Rural site in a quiet grassland setting, a 10-minute drive to Padstow
  • Under 10 minutes' drive from the beaches of Harlyn and Trevone
  • On-site bar, live music at the weekend and street food in high season
Craving a quiet Cornish countryside retreat? Sort a trip to Tregella Place Camping and peacefulness plus lovely farmland views will be yours for the taking. This park is a rural spot but it’s also close enough to the necessities you need for a satisfying stay: a chicken farm is a short stroll away to pick up fresh eggs, and a supermarket and a pub serving food are less than five minutes’ drive away. For foodies, this area is a top choice as Padstow (10 minutes’ drive) is a gastronomic hotspot with eateries helmed by chef Rick Stein, along with other highly rated restaurants, coffee shops and bars. If you really want to earn your dinner, get yourselves there on foot: the walk takes you through the cornfields and starts at the top of the lane. But there’s no real need to leave the site if you’re after evening entertainment; there’s a bar (in a converted bus, no less) serving Cornish beers and ciders, plus a packed schedule of live music at the weekend. In high summer, feed the family from the pop-up street kitchen and eat together at the communal picnic area. Thoroughly pristine facilities include a bricks-and-mortar shower block with family-size showers complete with changing areas, electric points for charging devices and hairdryers, and a washing-up area. You can wander directly on to the South West Coast Path from the park, and for adventures on two wheels, the Camel Trail cycle path is nearby as well.

What customers say

A top spot! Friendly, relaxed campsite with heaps of space & great countryside views. Clean modern facilities, bar & food van with live music. Close to Padstow & beaches. Minor gripes: a bit bumpy underfoot & showers can be hit or miss.

Liked A quiet site with a good, modern toilet block with everything working.
Plenty of space to pitch tent (early September).
Not far from a Tesco (estimate 2 miles) and a quaint pub at St. Merryn (1 mile away).
Close to coves (2-3 miles).
One can drive or cycle into Padstow, although it is hilly for cycling going back.
Friendly staff.
There are coastal walks starting in Padstow.

Liked That you can choose your own pitch.

Disliked The length of the shower. It's a push button and lasted 20 seconds at the most.
Dog poo on pitch when we arrived.

Liked Pitch where you like, lots of space, showers and toilets were clean and tidy, amazing stargazing at night, great sunsets, fresh drinking water available

Disliked Website & booking confirmation stated bar and food available during school holidays all week. On arrival we checked & were told both open at 7pm. Unfortunately nothing opened at all and we had planned on eating on site and were unable to drive as had multiple beers by this point & didn't fancy a half hour walk & back into Padstow in the dark. Next day again nothing opened but we had bought some supplies just in case. We still had a great time regardless but worth triple checking if this is why you are coming as we wouldn't have booked site if we had known bar and food not available.

Local attractions

There are many pursuits to ponder in the Padstow area, so fingers crossed you have plenty of time on your hands during a trip here. The beaches should be your first place to explore – after getting a glimpse at the closest sandy spots, like Harlyn and Trevone (under 10 minutes’ drive), set off for the scenic Bedruthan Steps (15 minutes). Here for the waves? Hire boards in Padstow (10 minutes) and head for Harlyn (10 minutes) or drive to Newquay (half an hour) and check out the UK’s biggest surf scene. This town also has masses to keep kids occupied, including beaches, a zoo and aquarium. If you need more nipper-friendly places to visit, Camel Creek Adventure Park (10 minutes) is close by and has theme park rides to keep pint-sized thrill-seekers engaged. When travelling child-free, put Prideaux Place (five minutes) on the itinerary – this Elizabethan manor is easy on the eye and also has stunning views out across Padstow’s historic harbour. After having a good nose around the house and grounds, keep the grown-up shenanigans going with a visit to the Trevibban Mill Vineyard (10 minutes), which organises tours and tastings.
