Liked: Quiet, peaceful site. Clean washrooms with plenty of hot water. Walking distance to Eden Project (a mile along the clay trail to the entrance, then another mile down to the visitor entrance/ticket office).
Disliked: No heating in the wash block so it was a bit chilly after a shower.
No Wi-Fi

Liked: A Hidden Gem Near the Eden Project
Well, what can I say—Innis Inn and Campsite is an absolute gem! Even though the weather wasn’t on our side, it didn’t take away from how lovely this place is. It’s just a short walk to the Eden Project, which was ideal for us, and the peaceful setting made it a perfect escape.
The lakes right on the doorstep are great for a bit of fishing or just a wander around, and the surrounding walks are stunning. I’m pretty sure I even heard a woodpecker one morning—just magical! There’s so much to see and do in the area, we really wished we had booked to stay longer.
Mark, the owner, is one of the friendliest people you could meet—super helpful and always happy to chat. The site itself was clean, with all the essentials you need, and there’s such a relaxed feel to the whole place. We loved spotting the rabbits hopping about, and Iwan was over the moon being able to ride around safely on his bike.
Thank you, Mark, for sharing your little slice of paradise. We’ll definitely be back—next time for longer!
