What customers say

Spacious, peaceful, well-kept site with super friendly staff. Clean facilities, great showers, good food at the cafe. Farm animals are a hit! Great for exploring, nice views. Relaxed vibe, flexible times. Showers can be a bit drafty, some pitch variety in second field.

Chris D.

Primitive grass campsite

Liked Great place to stay - spacious fields
Nice sunsets
Good clean toilet / showers
Food available and theme nights like pizza night was on during my stay on the Saturday evening which drew in quite a crowd for Natalie
Good base to explore surrounding places like lizard / Kynance cove / Cadgwith etc
I planned on stopping the night in my tent box but stayed 3 as very good value for money and had a good neighbour John (camping) who I had some interesting chats with
10/10 would definitely return

Disliked Nothing

Local attractions

Are you up for a bracing hike along the South West Coast Path? You can join this long-distance trail at Kennack Sands and head west, towards Great Britain’s southernmost spot, Lizard Point (two hours on foot; or 15 minutes’ drive). Take in views of the Atlantic Ocean and keep your eyes peeled for seals. Head to the town of Marazion (40 minutes) and wait for low tide, perhaps killing a few hours at RSPB Marazion Marsh, home to herons and egrets. Then walk along the causeway to St Michael’s Mount, a small, green island topped by a centuries-old castle. The harbourside National Maritime Museum Cornwall in Falmouth (40 minutes) has interesting displays on the local nautical heritage (plus temporary exhibitions on related subjects, including pirates and tattoos). From Falmouth you can also catch a ferry across the river estuary to St Mawes Castle, built by Henry VIII in the 16th century.
