What customers say
This campsite earns rave reviews for its quiet vibe, roomy, neat sites, and spotless facilities, including hot showers with great water pressure. Guests love the nice extras like fire pits with wood and the awesome kids' play area. Owners Dinah and Marc are praised for being welcoming, helpful, and accommodating. While most had no complaints, a few noted a nearby road and one mentioned the price.

Yurt was a great choice and Ruby Camping is a wonderful site.
Yurt
Liked First off, I would like to say this was such a gem of a find. Dinah and Marc were fantastic and really have thought of everything that you would need or want on a camping stay. From the spoons and pots to the torches and hot water bottles. Just bring food and towels! My kids (1 and 5) simply loved the experience and the minute they got out of the car just thought they were in heaven. The yurt itself is far bigger than it looks and so comfy! The kitchen and fire pit was so social for us and there was also the playground where ball toys are provided like badminton as well as archery. There is also a stream and hammock in the trees which we wish we could have stayed at longer. The other campers are certainly not close at all and we really felt we were in nature and the silence was beautiful. The highlight for my partner was the outside shower (which provides warm water) so he felt really rejuvenated every morning. There’s a lot to see around the area: we went to the beach in Cornwall but would suggest to visit the smaller ones as the main beach was too busy, castle Drogo was a treat and the lovely pubs along any route were so gorgeous. Do visit Fingle Bridge Inn for a meal- it’s along the river and has truly beautiful views with kids playing in the water and picnicking along the mountain. We want to walk the trail the next time we come. There is a lake to kayak in not so far away and horse riding. Honestly - so much to do and see we were shocked. We lived out stay and will certainly come again. Fuss free camping with kids - yes!
Disliked Having to leave - wish we could have stayed longer!

Absolutely loved this site, amazing set…
Lotus bell tent
Liked Absolutely loved this site, amazing set up at the lotus bell tent. Kitchen with all the amenities including a double hob, cool box and ice packs and all the utensils you could need. The tent itself was beautiful, spacious and well decorated. The games area at the bottom of the site was an hit with our 12 year old, it was her favourite part. Our favourite part was the hot showers and proper loos! All in all a great stay!
Disliked The nearby road, not much anyone can do about this just make sure you bring ear plugs if your a light sleeper like me.

Clean, spacious and well-equipped site
Lotus bell tent
Liked A lovely clean, well-maintained and spacious site with really good facilities - couldn't fault the lovely hot and powerful shower (didn't try the outdoor one but heard that was also good!) and proper flushing loos plus washing up facilities. It is clear that the very friendly owners really take pride in this place. My children loved the freedom to run around and enjoyed all the games on offer (croquet,boules,badminton etc). I loved our cosy lotus belle tent with its really comfortable bed and well equipped camp kitchen as well as relaxing by our big firepit in the evenings. Yes, as others have said, you can hear the nearby road, but it certainly didn't spoil our stay and we hope to return at some point - we had a great few days 😀

Really nice campsite - pitches are…
Primitive grass tent campsite
Liked Really nice campsite - pitches are spaced out so everyone gets a good amount of space, clean and modern toilet and shower, surrounded by nature. Each pitch gets a fire pit space.
Owners were very nice and came to meet us when we arrived and showed us around. You can also buy a bucket of logs for your fire.
Disliked We had no issues with the campsite - if you want somewhere super quiet, there is a road going past which you can hear, but didn’t bother us.
