  • Off-grid site close to the south Cornwall coast
  • Two miles from Lizard village; Porthleven 20 minutes' drive
  • Communal firepit and seating area on site
Belle Camping is an off-grid spot located just a couple of miles from the village of Lizard, the southernmost settlement in mainland Britain. With a central location on the Lizard Peninsula, the site is within easy reach of many of the best parts of Cornwall's south coast, with Porthleven to the west and Falmouth to the east. There are shared facilities on site including hot showers and toilets, as well as a communal firepit and seating area where you can sit back and relax in the open air. Other than that, there's no internet access or electricity here, but there is good phone signal. Although the weather in this part of the world is generally mild thanks to a southerly location, you might want to bring along some blankets for those nights when it does get chilly. As there's no cooking facility on site you're also welcome to bring along a gas stove to cook on if you wish – you'll need to use this outside and at your own risk.

Lovely spot with sea views, near the SW Coastal Path. Friendly hosts, clean bell tents, good showers. Peaceful and spacious, with food available. A few booking price queries sorted. Some noise from neighbours noted.

Bell tent (four person)

Liked The bell tent was warm and beautifully presented with biscuits, tea and coffee and a welcome pack. There were toilets and a shower block with hot showers nearby and games to borrow. There was a food van with themed nights - it was pizza night the night we were there. Michelle was a friendly and helpful host.

Disliked Nothing!

Bell tent (four person)

Liked Really appointed tent that was very comfortable. We slept well!

Remote location.... peaceful... plenty of space in the field for kids to play and very close to the sea.

No wifi but we had a good signal for social media etc. Great butty wagon in the field 100 meters away.

We will be back for a longer stay... thank you

Bell tent (four person)

Liked A nice spot by the sea. Good tents, the lady that runs it is very friendly. There is a food van that serves meals on the camp.

Disliked Ideally the listing would say to bring a camping stove as the only way to cook is a barbecue. There is pots and pans and a kettle, but unless you buy lots of coals and heat things on the BBQ you can't use them. Bring extra blankets to pad out the beds and for extra warmth. The single camping beds are fine for smaller kids but wouldn't be great for adults.The food van cannot cater for any allergies.

From the manager: Thank you for taking the time to leave your feedback.
We're sorry to hear that our glamping experience wasn't what you were looking for. Our listing is intended to accurately describe the facilities provided, including that cooking is based around the barbecue as part of the off-grid glamping experience, and we'll review the wording to ensure this is as clear as possible.
Regarding the food van, we explained that due to the size of our kitchen and the risk of cross-contamination, we cannot safely cater for gluten-free dietary requirements. This policy is in place to protect our guests, regardless of the severity of an allergy, and we would never compromise on food safety.
The camping beds are also part of the glamping experience and are described in our listing. Unfortunately, one of the beds was damaged shortly after your arrival, but we responded promptly to resolve the issue.
We're proud that the overwhelming majority of our guests leave delighted, with many 10/10 reviews praising the unique glamping experience we offer. We understand that glamping isn't for everyone, and guests seeking the comforts of traditional accommodation may find it doesn't match their expectations.

We wish you all the best in finding accommodation that's a better fit for your future stays.

Liked We met Michelle at the food truck, petted the dogs and she shown us to our bell tent, it was so lovely, peacefully quiet and pure chill vibes! Showers and toilets are decent and clean, can’t wait to come back.
Food was good from the truck and they were able to go through allergies with us too!

Disliked Nothing at all
