  • Cornwall countryside site with spectacular views
  • Four miles from St Austell and six from the Eden Project
  • Dog-friendly site with level and well-drained pitches
There are reasons aplenty why many guests at the popular Court Farm Campsite near St Austell in Cornwall plot their return before they’ve even left: the site is in cracking Cornish countryside with the county’s most famed attractions only a few miles away, and you’ll get probably the friendliest welcome anywhere from Simon and Lisa. The family have been on this farm for generations, so recommending days out for guests is a doddle to the Court Farm lot, who can let you know the best pubs, best beaches and best things to do for miles around; if you look confuddled, they’ll even draw you a map. The Court Farm pitches are popular with guests too: level, well-drained, generously sized and set on the edges of the camping fields with plenty of room left for the kids to run about. Other favoured facilities include free temperature-controlled showers with a baby bath and changing mat area, hot water provided in the dishwashing area,a freezer facility and a launderette. Wifi is available. Dogs will get a warm welcome at Court Farm too, but please keep them on leads and away from the horses.

Sylwia P.

Power optional grass tent campsite

Liked Very clean facilities and good showers and toilet block. Washing machine, freezer, tumble dryer, inside washing up space. Great set up really.

Nice, pleasant campsite. My pitch was quite far from the toilet block but it didn't matter. It does appear that it's on the slope but where you actually pitch up it's flat and straight. I enjoyed this place.

Good location.

Disliked Nothing really.

Natasha P.

Power optional grass tent campsite

Liked We stayed here as a family of 4 for 9 nights, the pitch size was more than generous. We had more than enough space for a 6 man tent, and our gazebo plus the car.
The owners were very friendly and helpful, the site itself was outstanding, with beautiful views to wake up to each morning.
The facilities were immaculate and clean, it's the best campsite by far.
We can't wait to return next year!

Local attractions

No road rage here: Court Farm is slap bang in the middle of Cornish attraction country, with most of Cornwall’s best-known places within 20 minutes’ drive of your pitch. Four miles away, the town of St Austell and its surroundings are the hub for many attractions and activities: the Clay Trail starts from here and the Wheal Martyn China Clay Country Park takes a look at Cornwall’s famous china clay heritage. Then to the beach for the sand and coves of St Austell Bay: look to the east for Gribben Head, part of an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and with the South Coast Path passing around it on its way to Poole (handy hint: that’s a long walk). Thirsty? Head for St Austell’s award-winning brewery for a well-earned tipple; you can buy a ‘Passport to Beer’ book here too telling the tasty tale of beer in the area. The sheltered hidden beach of Polkerris is 10 miles away from Court Farm (you might need to ask on site for detailed directions as they say it’s down a ‘blink and you’ll miss it’ turning). Bag some windsurfing and sailing courses here, have an ice cream at the beach café or munch a meal with a view at the Rashleigh Inn. From Polkerris it’s only a couple of miles to Fowey with its family beach at Readymoney Cove.
