What customers say

This campsite earns top marks for cleanliness, pristine facilities, and welcoming staff. Reviewers rave about spacious pitches, modern washrooms, and great WiFi. It's a peaceful, well-kept spot in a beautiful Cornwall location. On-site food and a dog run are bonuses. Later check-outs and kids' play areas were suggested improvements.

Crantock camping pod

Liked Had a short but really nice stay. The pod was really cute and comfortable, and clean, as were the shower and wash facilities. Plenty of other facilities too like washing machines, communal freezer and a shower for cleaning off sandy wetsuits and dogs. The team seemed to have thought of everything, with a basket of tennis balls and spare poo bags even provided in the dog exercise field. Really close to lots of lovely beach locations. A great site and we hope to visit again.

Local attractions

You can reach a trio of blooming fine beaches within a 10-minute drive from your base at Gwinear Camping and Fishing: Holywell Bay, Crantock and Poly Joke are National Trust-maintained beaches with a mix of soft sands, dunes, rockpools and top surf, with far fewer crowds than nearby hotspots like Fistral. For walks both lapped by the waves and high on the cliffs, it's 10 minutes' drive to link up with the mighty 630-mile South West Coast Path. A good half-day section from Newquay takes you to Bedruthan Steps (half an hour by car) for clifftop vistas, steep steps down to a secluded beach (check tide times), rock climbing and a welcome café. Inland, the smart fishing town of Padstow (40 minutes) marks the start of the Camel Trail, a 17-mile track taking walkers, cyclists and horse riders through some of Cornwall's finest countryside. Padstow's a popular stop for fish too, eaten battered on the beach, served up smart in restaurants or bought to grill up back at the base. If you want to land your own, there are various sea fishing options on offer in Newquay; if you prefer your fish in a tank, the Blue Reef Aquarium is a real gem. For family days out, it's half an hour to Camel Creek Adventure Park, a heady mix of crocodiles, meerkats, rides, activities and a 5D cinema. The big-name rainforest biospheres of The Eden Project and the elegant Lost Gardens of Heligan are 40 minutes away.
