  • Peaceful farm site on Cornwall's Lizard Peninsula
  • Less than a mile from Mullion Cove and eight miles from Helston
  • A 15-minute walk to pubs, a chocolate factory and the village shop
What makes the Lizard Peninsula tick? Some point to its location as the most south-westerly point in Britain. For others, it's the vibrant local rocks (dark green in colour, veined with white and red). Whatever brings you here, the spectacular sunsets, comely coves and rural vistas certainly don't hurt… Located on the outskirts of Mullion, Far View is true to its name: the vistas are all about the greenery that stretches out for miles around. Fancy mixing up coast and country? With Mullion Cove under a mile away from base, this spot is handily placed for easy access to both. Guests have five acres of Cornish meadow to spread out in, with essentials such as toilets and showers taken care of on site. Human visitors share Far View with a number of permanent guests, including wallabies (you're welcome to go and see them up close), goats, horses, donkeys and guanaco. Dogs are welcome, but please bear in mind the presence of furry live-in residents if you bring them along. A 15-minute stroll takes guests up to Mullion village centre, which has two pubs, a couple of village shops, a fish and chip shop and (this being Kernow) a pasty shop. There's also a chocolate factory that can be reached within 10 minutes on foot: no oompa-loompas here, but there's plenty of scope to make friends with the in-house team of llamas.

What customers say

Lovely, roomy site with grand views and a calm vibe. Clean showers, lots of loos, plus freezer access and washing-up spots. Owners are dead sound, always checking in. Great for coastal walks and beaches. Farm animals are a nice touch. Fire pits here. Many want to come back. A bit windy at times, and showers could be better placed.

Non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch

Liked Everything! Stunning views, watching the sunset over the sea view was something else... great location to explore, best toilet and shower blocks we have ever used on a camp site, unbelievably quiet at all times, and a host that couldn't do enough for you... can't wait to go back next summer :)

Disliked Nothing at all...

Electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch

Liked Location was perfect waking up to the distant sea view, large individual shower facilities, freezers and fridges for use, relaxed site and Jane was just lovely and welcoming. Only a 15 min walk to Mullion Cove perfect for sunset watching, if you are a walker this site is right on the SWCP.

Disliked Having to go home!

Electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch

Liked We really enjoyed our stay!

It was perfectly rustic and spacious. We felt looked after just the right amount and Jane was super friendly with great knowledge of the local area.

Electric, toilets, showers, lovely hot water, fridges, dishes area, fire pit (wood available to buy £4 a bag) and most importantly, peace, was all there. The animals on site were a delight!

Our dog enjoyed it too and the dog walking area was perfect for a lazy morning.

Electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch

Liked Good shower rooms. Toilets & all facilities clean. Needed the table to put washing up stuff on. Spacious. Very quiet as the road to the campsite was seldom used it seemed.

Disliked My pitch was quite pitted and I tripped over the holes a few times. Shame the grass was dead - obviously a combination of a very dry, hot summer & a busy pitch!

Electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch

Liked Stunning views, basic camping on the farm with an added bonus that everything has been thought off. Kids loved the animals the campfire with a sunset was amazing. Location was perfect as not far away from everything we wanted to see. Jane was super friendly and helpful. We fell in love with the Mullion Cove which is only 15 minute walk from the camp site. Overall, a great experience that the kids still talk about!

Zuzanna L.

Non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch

Liked The host is very attentive, helpful and friendly.
The pitch is very clean.
The toilets and showers always maintained clean! I wish all tent pitches had toilets like those.
Fridge with more than plenty of space to use.
The views are great and the location for the Mullion Cove, Pollurian Beach and Kynance Cove is perfect.
Animals are super friendly, the miniature horses were adorable!
Not just the price was cheap but also the price of the logs, eggs etc. Was just fab.

Disliked Nothing! Everything was superb.

But be aware this site is basic with no shop, hot food or activities. But it’s just what we wanted :)

May be a great touch to introduce a little shop where you can place the farm eggs, and some essentials like water, juice etc. to stop visitors from driving to the nearest town. But that’s not necessary. It’s great how it is.

Recommend to friends Visit again

A perfect place to stay for everyone, worth it just for the sunsets!

Non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch

Liked The position of the campsite was great, a short walk down to Mullion Cove and fantastic sea views from the top of the field. The facilities were great and spotless. Jane was great and nothing was too much trouble. The fire pits were brilliant.

Local attractions

Mullion (15 minutes' walk) has activities such as swimming, canoeing, coasteering and surfing, and it's also possible to arrange horseback jaunts along the beach here. The well-signposted South West Coast path also skirts the village, and there's a swish spa in town for treatments should you overdo the exercise. To the north, there are plenty of activities in and around Helston (20 minutes' drive). Find out about local customs at the Museum of Cornish Life (20 minutes), or head to Kynance Cove (20 minutes) to see the stunning turquoise water, rock stacks and tidal beach alongside the South West Coast Path. To the east, green-fingered guests should make tracks to Trebah Garden (35 minutes), a 26-acre subtropical oasis with spectacular coastal backdrops. A little further east, Falmouth (40 minutes) has plenty to see and do as well, including the National Maritime Museum Cornwall and Pendennis Castle, built by Henry VIII.
