  • Secluded site with excellent views, set over two scenic acres
  • Within four miles of Falmouth, the River Fal and sandy beaches
  • Take the nature walk down the site valley through the bluebell wood
Many folk who come to Cornwall seek a base for its north and south. And secluded is often an option too, given how popular the place is in the summer months. Add both those wants to splendid surroundings, a view over a grand valley, and the peace of the Cornish countryside… and you get Menallack Farm Caravan and Camping Site. The owners rightfully point out that this is a very pretty part of Cornwall – and the site's rightly pretty too, set over two scenic acres with a nature walk down its valley, through Bluebell Wood and to a stream at the valley's bottom. Firepits are available near the pitching field and in the woods. There are also showers, toilets and a washing-up area. It's only two and a half miles from here to both Trebah Gardens and Glendurgan Gardens, three miles from the nearest beach, and within easy day trip distance of most towns, resorts and attractions on the north and south Cornish coasts. A farm shop two miles away from Menallack Farm stocks a good range of local fruit and veg, free-range meat and poultry, bread, Cornish milk, butter and cream, homemade pasties, pies, cakes and quite a bit more. Beyond that, Falmouth is four miles away for supermarkets and the like.

Liked The friendliness, showers, overall atmosphere. It was peaceful and the walk through the woods by the stream was magical. The ducks, pigs, sheep and chickens add to the appeal of the site and I would love to go back.

Camping pod

Liked We had a brilliant week at Menallack Farm. It’s in a lovely, quiet location and is a great place for families. The facilities were always clean and well looked after, and the whole site had a relaxed, friendly atmosphere.

The owners genuinely couldn’t do enough to help and made us feel very welcome throughout our stay.

A fantastic base for exploring Cornwall and somewhere we’d happily stay again. Thanks for a brilliant week!
