  • 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.

What customers say

Lovely views, great spot near Porthleven. Owners, especially Wendy, are grand. Facilities are spotless. Plenty of room, chilled vibe, and flexible pitches. A few noted slopes and tricky shower temps or wind.

Liked Great views, easy access to Porthlevan for the food festival. This is a great site, very well organised, friendly welcome and good toilet facilities, with plenty of hot water on tap. Didn’t use the showers so can’t comment. We will definitely use again!

Matt P.

Non-electric grass tent or motorhome pitch

Liked Plenty of space on the site, we went for the Porthleven food festival and it’s really close to the centre of the village though there is a moderate hill to climb on the way home. Perfect location in my opinion though. Toilets cleaned a couple of times a day, showers good as well.

Disliked Nowhere to put your clothes in the shower cubicles. Wood wood on site is off cuts of framing timber so doesn’t really last very long. Neither big issues - would recommend to anyone.

Liked We had a fantastic family stay for Porthleven food fest.
The owner Wendy was super lovely and helpful and the campsite has a very relaxed vibe. The toilets/showers were kept exceptionally clean and there were plenty of them. Wendy and her sons were very welcoming, thank you!

Non-electric grass tent or motorhome pitch

Liked This is a lovely, chilled, spacious campsite with no specific pitch placements, just wherever the grass has been mown. Dog/child friendly.

Spotless toilets and showers with plenty of hot water.

The owners are very welcoming, helpful and friendly and made a point of telling us not to rush to checkout on the last day.

Perfect place to stay for the Porthleven Food Festival...25 mins walk to the harbour and you can't hear a thing from the town madness :-))

We loved it and will be back soon!!

Disliked Nothing.

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).
