Trethias Farm Caravan Park

The view from the coastal path - yards from the touring fields

View from our touring & dog walking field

Trethias Farm Caravan Park has been family owned and run since the 1950’s, and little has changed since its beginning, other than the installation of the type of facilities that you would expect today. Trethias is ideal for families and couples, seeking a classic camping holiday, and looking to avoid the usual cramped over developed parks. Set in the beautiful surroundings of the North Cornwall coastline, Trethias enjoys some uninterrupted views of the surrounding countryside, Trevose Head, Bodmin Moor and sometimes even St. Ives Bay on an exceptional day. All of our touring pitches are positioned around the edge of the fields, leaving the middle open for games & cycling. Award winning conservation park, with wildlife havens and bird protection areas surrounding the camping fields. Within the park, we provide a special dog walking field with fantastic sea views, although they must be on a lead within the park itself. Trethias has no on-site entertainment or clubs, uses minimal lighting at night, and does not accept bookings of large groups in high season, all of which adds up to a natural, friendly feel around the park. Peak season booking essential.
