  • Back-to-basics tourer pitches at a plant nursery in Cornwall
  • Looe Beach and Millendreath Sea Pool five minutes’ drive
  • Off-grid site with a small café; llamas in the neighbouring paddock
If you’re looking for a budget tourer option on your upcoming Cornish jaunt, the pop-up Calamazag Plant Nursery may suit you down to the ground. It’s five minutes’ drive from the pretty fishing village of Looe, in a handy spot that gives you a choice of beaches and coastal towns to explore. Pitches here are flat and spacious grass spaces for campervans or motorhomes, and they have lovely Cornish countryside views. The llama paddock is right next door, so you’ll have cute animals to watch to keep you amused during your stay. The pitches are adjacent to the plant sales area, which has a small high-quality café cabin serving barista coffee, artisan drinks, cakes, sandwiches and toasties as well as ice cream and Cornish cream teas. This is a back-to-basics park-up with no showers, electric hook-ups or toilet waste facilities on site, so you will need to be in a vehicle that is self-sufficient. The only facilities available are a portable loo and drinking water. There is a bus stop a short walk away for those who want to explore the area by public transport.

Brilliant dog-friendly site with stunning views and a top-notch, helpful team. Perfect "back to basics" camping. Handy bus to Looe, good food nearby. Plant nursery's a treat. Great value, spick and span, guests keen to return.

Liked Very friendly people with a warm welcome. Lovely field to camp in with adequate clean toilet facilities, fresh water and waste bins. Also an interesting plant nursery to visit on site and a hilly but fairly short walk into Looe.

Disliked Although the cakes in the plant nursery cafe were very nice, they were on the pricier side. However we appreciate this is a small business with different costs and overheads.

Recommend to friends Visit again

Liked Clean, quiet. There is a cafe serving awesome cakes and coffee. Staff/Owners friendly and gave us advice for eating out. Facilities are water, recycling and portloo but all very well presented and the cleanest poterloo I ever used.

Disliked No dislike about the site. If walking in to Looe get the bus back as it’s a steep walk back.

Liked Super friendly basic site, close to Looe. I visited for two nights to meet up with some work friends and was warmly welcomed straight away. Clean and tidy, spaced apart pitches with plenty of room. If you’re self contained it’s ideal. There is a portaloo if not and bins for rubbish/recycling.
Would definitely use again.

Liked Tidy little spot, run by great folks with a lovely little cafe and plant nursery. It was perfect for a couple of nights. There is traffic noise which is more obvious during the day than night, it didn't bother us at all as we were out all day and slept like logs when we were back at night. The coddy shack next door for fish and chips is excellent and worth a shout out. Quality food and super convenient. We will definitely visit again!

Liked Friendly welcoming owners. Lovely views across farmland and fields and the on-site garden nursery is a bonus for gardeners. Walking distance to Looe town or bus stop opposite.

Disliked The main Looe road can be a little noisy early morning.
