  • Simple Cornwall farm site with fabulous views over Bodmin Moor
  • Tintagel Castle and Trebarwith Strand beach 20 minutes' drive
  • Huge pitches with firepits to hire; popular pub nearby
Yes indeed, there’s an amazing view at Helluva View Camping. In fact, it’s not just one view, but a sweeping panorama across Bodmin Moor, providing a lovely backdrop for all pitches. This is a particularly fine place to be at sunset, but the views carry on into the night, because Bodmin Moor is an International Dark Sky Landscape and therefore a fabulous location for a night of stargazing. It may be the views that first captured your attention, but there’s more to this Cornwall site than just its good looks. The pitches are pleasingly spacious (huge, you might even say) with lots of room to set up your camping chairs, gazebo, awning and other bits and bobs. There’s also plenty of space for kids to run around and play games safely, and for grownups to light barbecues or firepits (the latter available to hire on site if you don't have your own). As an off-grid site, the facilities here are on the simple side – you’ll have access to traditional (and eco-friendly) long-drop toilets, a washing-up sink and a cold shower for a refreshing rinse. Snacks and other supplies can be picked up at the village shop (about 10 minutes’ walk away) and there’s a popular local pub nearby for homemade meals and local ales (how very handy…). Getting out to explore Bodmin Moor should be top of your list of activities, of course – perhaps walking, cycling or horse riding through the scenery. There are heaps more places to visit nearby though, from ancient castles to sandy beaches to family theme parks… you’re very unlikely ever to run out of things to do…

Liked Ideal spot relaxing with very short walk to local pub that serves food. Brilliant views in all directions so enjoyed just sitting and looking when we returned from a lovely local walk. We have shower and toilet in our motorhome but the onsite facilities were kept nice and clean. Kerry the site owner was very welcoming and we even got a great mobile phone signal. Intend to return as soon as possible

Disliked Absolutely nothing - bang on campsite
