  • No-frills Lizard Peninsula camping with sea views near Porthleven
  • A 10-minute drive from Praa Sands beach
  • Dog-friendly grass pitches; pubs, shops and surfing 15 minutes’ walk
Fancy a relaxed sojourn near a gorgeous coastal village in Cornwall – and one with the option of surfing? In that case, it’s time to consider a stay at Treza Camping, an easygoing no-frills spot on the Lizard Peninsula that’s 15 minutes’ walk from both the pretty fishing harbour at Porthleven and its renowned surfing beach. Life on this site, on a working farm overlooking the sea, is indeed pretty chilled. There are no set pitches, so pick your favourite spot on arrival and claim it as your own. Bring torches and batteries as there’s no electricity on the camping field, but low-key facilities do include showers and toilets as well as washing-up sinks. This is a dog-friendly site, and your canine chums can join long family walks on Loe Bar beach (20 minutes’ drive) or hike segments of the South West Coast Path (15 minutes’ walk). And of course, with Porthleven beach being so close, this is a handy spot for families with kids keen to make sandcastles on the shoreline or splash around in the waves. Pick up supplies for the barbecue from Porthleven village (have a nose around the cute harbour, lined with cafés, while you’re there), or abandon the idea of cooking altogether and head down to a harbourside pub for fresh seafood suppers. And finally, one rule for time back on site: this is a peaceful rural area and no loud music is allowed, so please make sure the amplifier stays at home.

Cathalijne D.

Primitive grass tent or RV campsite

Liked This campsite is peaceful and quiet, with very clean facilities. We had a wonderful view, overlooking the sea and the fields. The showers are pretty hot, you can‘t adjust them. Wendy and her little dog are very friendly.
Porthleven is a short walk down, has a nice beach and a wonderful tearoom for Cream Tea.

Disliked We would have liked a to have a shed (or a roof) to do the dishes and cook on our campingstove, when rain was pouring down (we only had a small tent).

Fab little find!

Ernie W.

Primitive grass tent or RV campsite

Liked Easy walking distance to Porthleven village and cliff paths
Toilets (6 off ) clean and tidy
Showers ( 6 off ) adequate - individual gas boiler for each shower
Very large field so plenty of room
Owner, Wendy very pleasant and helpful
Quiet location at the top of the village
Reasonable price

Disliked Some pitches at the top of the field reasonably level but the majority are on a slope as the field runs up a hill
Some showers didn't work as the boiler pilot flames get blown out by the sea breeze (wind)

Excellent - clean, quiet, great location, friendly staff

Primitive grass tent or RV campsite

Liked Quiet, seaviews, plenty of toilets and showers and they were clean and tidy. Wendy was friendly and helpful. Easy access. Plenty of space. Walking distance to Porthleven centre. No wifi or electricity so a great opportunity to have a digital detox! Really good value for money.

Disliked Would be useful to also have some recycling bins.

Local attractions

Surfers, staying at Treza Camping gets you close to Porthleven beach (15 minutes’ walk) with consistent waves and recommended for experts. Novices can catch gentle waves at Poldhu beach (20 minutes’ drive), while Praa Sands (10 minutes) is another popular surfing destination. Non-surfers can take a dip off sandy Loe Bar (20 minutes), with a choice of sea on one side and a freshwater lake on the other. As well as being popular with outdoors fiends, this part of Cornwall packs a cultural punch: departure point for tours to the historic castle and gardens at St Michael’s Mount, pretty seaside Marazion (15 minutes) is also filled with indie art galleries and craft shops, while St Ives (half an hour) on the north coast is home to the famous Tate St Ives gallery. At the western end of the county is Porthcurno (45 minutes), host of musicals and plays at the open-air Minack Theatre (50 minutes). And of course kids get a look in too, with the chance to visit cute rescue seals at the Cornish Seal Sanctuary (20 minutes).
