  • Friendly Cornwall campsite in a flat 10-acre field with sea views
  • A 10-minute walk to St Agnes, Trevaunance Cove and Trevellas Cove
  • Direct access to local footpaths and acres of space for games
Tin mines, cool coves and steam railways… Sunny Corner is a top pick for laidback outdoor breaks on Cornwall's north coast, with plenty of things to do in easy reach. This small and well-maintained campsite is in a 10-acre field on the edge of the village of St Agnes with stunning sea views, spacious pitches and easy access to all the village's amenities (about 10 minutes' walk away). Families certainly aren’t forgotten here, as the site is well equipped for all ages. There’s a spacious open field where the kids can blow off steam and make new friends in a safe and welcoming environment. And in terms of practicalities, Sunny Corner has modern toilets and showers for guests, all of which are well-maintained and a short walk away from the pitches. Sunny Corner is in the area of St Agnes known as Wheal Kitty, so you’ll only be a short five-minute walk from the historic buildings of the Blue Hills Tin Mine, where there’s a small exhibition about Cornwall's industrial past. Trevaunance Cove, a spectacular lifeguarded beach, and the more secluded Trevellas Cove are around a 10-minute walk away, while other coastal havens like Perranporth can be reached in as little as a 10-minute drive. Food on the brain too? Don’t worry, as you’ll be well set with a number of family-friendly cafés, pubs, restaurants and a couple of small supermarkets in the village that are easy to reach on foot within roughly 10-15 minutes.

What customers say

Great campsite, spacious flat spots & spotless loos. Close to St Agnes village & coast path for awesome views & sunsets. Handy charging points & freezer for ice packs. Mostly quiet, though sometimes queues for facilities during busy periods. Owners are super friendly & helpful.

Unpowered grass tent, campervan or trailer tent site

Liked Flat pitches! We’ve stayed at so many sites with our tent & literally rolled down hill. No worries here. The showers are proper too.

Disliked Not a dislike really, but the quiet area could be larger.

Sandy G.

Unpowered grass and gravel tent, campervan or trailer tent site (adults only)

Liked Lovely simple well kept site with fab views and amazing sunsets, perfect for a chilled weekend with my sister and dog.
Very friendly and helpful team.
Toilets and shower spotless. Nice lady seemed to be cleaning all the time! Occasional queues for facilities but didn't bother us, just watched for the queue to go down 😁
Apparently no hot water at one stage, again didn't bother us but may have others with kids.
Handy charging ports, bricks for barby and freezer for ice packs.
Close to Cornwall Lavender Farm, worth a visit to this lovely place that also has a fab coffee shop 😀
Will be back, thank you 😊

Disliked Nothing!

Unpowered grass and gravel tent, campervan or trailer tent site (adults only)

Liked We had an absolutely wonderful stay at this campsite and can’t recommend it highly enough. The showers were kept immaculately clean, toilets were always stocked and tidy. The pitches were generous in size, with a nice balance of open views and privacy.

Kate clearly puts her heart into this place, and it shows in every corner. If you’re looking for a clean, quiet, and beautifully managed site with a truly lovely host, this is the one.

Michelle B.

Unpowered grass tent, campervan or trailer tent site

Liked Easy to find, good communication, tidy site with good, clean facilities. Owner kindly let us stay in the quiet zone, as just the two of us on a busy day.

Disliked Unfortunately, although we were in the quiet zone, other campers were parked up near the entrance and decided to play loud music and party until 1am in the morning, so very little sleep.

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: I am so sorry this happened I wish you would have rung me I would have come over and told them to turn the music off. If is very difficult to police everyone but I am very happy to come and ask them to stop playing. Please come again and I will ensure you have a quiet night. Kate

Local attractions

Get your hands on Cornish tin products to take home with you and see how the family goes about the ancient tin mining process at Blue Hills Tin Mine (five minutes' walk). After a lesson on the tin mining industry, there’s rockpooling at Trevaunance Cove (10 minutes' walk) or surfing at Perranporth (10 minutes' drive) to keep up the pace. Indeed, while there are so many places within around 10 minutes’ drive of the site, it doesn’t hurt to go a little further out, especially when there are coastal hotspots like Newquay (25 minutes) or Falmouth (35 minutes) to hand. These bigger places have plenty of entertainment in the form of watersports, amusement parks or shopping… and for steam train trips, there's Lappa Valley (30 minutes). Cornwall’s well-known for its coast, of course, but there are also some gorgeous gardens that make for a great afternoon out in this southern part of England. There are the rainforest biomes of the huge Eden Project (50 minutes), which has a daring zipwire and giant swing too – or Trebah Garden (45 minutes) for a taste of the sub-tropical beside the coast.
