  • 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…

Primitive grass tent or RV campsite

Liked Amazing location in the middle of Bodmin moor with exceptional 360 views from the moor to the sea with huge skies.
A perfect wild camping style set up with clean composing loos and an excellent cold water shower all beautifully handmade and practically constructed for everything you would need.
Dog friendly with plenty of options for long walks off the site.
Great pub less than 5 mins away serving delicious locally sourced meals and a local shop in walking distance for any essentials.
Super friendly owners and on onsite dogs with helpful advice and a warm welcome.
Can’t wait to come back, breath the moorland air and relax at Helluva View!

Primitive grass tent or RV campsite

Liked Such a lovely place with amazing views, so peaceful. Kerry is a lovely lady offering her fields of the farm to pitch up in. She has compostable dug out toilets, which I was nervous about! But actually they’re really cool and has everything you need with toilet roll, sanitary item bags, bins and big box of sawdust. (I will add, it doesn’t smell at all!) The village is beautiful and there’s a very popular pub (The Old Inn and Restaurant) right opposite the turning to the farm, food is amazing there and staff are very welcoming. The drive in was lovely, right through the moors with lots of cows and sheep roaming free. This is the perfect stop to just get away from it all and chill. We only came for a night, very last minute, but so happy we’ve found this place. It’s beautiful. We’ll be returning!

Disliked Not one thing!
