Individual luxury shower rooms; on-site shop and bakery

Cornwall may be famed for its savoury pasties, but you can expect an altogether sweeter treat when you stay at Orchard Springs Campsite. The two-acre site is on the outskirts of the town of Bodmin, but green fields and an orchard and stream give it a country escape feel. The centre of Bodmin is less than two miles from Orchard Springs, and Bodmin Jail, Cornwall’s Regimental Museum, the Bodmin Town Museum and Bodmin’s Obelisk are all within 35 minutes’ walk of the site. Bodmin also has plenty of shops, pubs and restaurants where you can pick up souvenirs and supplies, scull some local brews or have a taste of Cornish cuisine. If you’re not feeling up to the trip into Bodmin, an on-site shop in the reception hut has the basics you’ll need, as well as some Orchard Springs home-baked bread and pastries. A campers’ kitchen with microwave, fridge freezer and ice blocks is also available for guests’ use. A toilet block built by local craftspeople rounds out facilities, with individual shower rooms giving you a little extra privacy during your stay. Orchard Springs Campsite opened in 2018: its owners spent the 10 years before that running another successful site in the region.

What customers say

Clean, quiet, well-kept camp with friendly owners. Visitors love the big pitches, top-notch facilities (private shower/loo rooms!), and on-site bakery. Central Cornwall for exploring. Some queues for facilities and wish for a kids' play area noted.

Aug 2025 Tabitha G.

Electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch

Liked It was a nice quiet site with decent sized pitches, owners very helpful too.

Only 4 toilets/shower rooms, but there rarely seemed to be a problem with queuing, although it was only about 75% occupied during our stay so could be different at peak times.

Location is also quite close to main roads and so no 10 minute drive to get to a main road like some other quieter sites.

Disliked The shower head heights were not adjustable (apart from one). Doable as an adult, but harder for young children to cope with. They also cut out automatically (which is completely understandable), but the timing was a bit too quick (felt like 30 seconds).

Shepherd's hut

Liked Shephards hut had everything you needed for a comfortable stay! Even has one set of toilets very close by. They had thought of little details and we had a lovely weekend there with our dog. Great to have the extra field to walk him in too. Really good communication for any questions beforehand too.

Local attractions

Fans of the BBC’s Poldark will recognise some of the place names in the area around Orchard Springs: the towns of Bodmin and Truro are close by, with Bodmin a short walk from the site and Truro a 35-minute drive. Poldark is synonymous with lingering shots of the Cornish moors, and tours can take you to some of the coves and mines that bring the show to life. This area of Cornwall has a lot more to it than filming locations. The Eden Project, a 20-minute drive away, is a top spot to get up close with nature in the outdoor gardens and tropical and Mediterranean biomes or, if you’re feeling brave, have a go on England’s longest zipwire. The Eden Project looks to the future, but if you’d prefer to dig around in the past there are plenty of historic sites close by. Get a feel for Victorian life at Lanhydrock House and Gardens, a 15-minute drive from Orchard Springs; a look at the Elizabethan era at Prideaux Place, 30 minutes away, or head back to Georgian times at Pencarrow, 10 minutes from the site. If the zip wire at the Eden Project got you geared up for a more active break, you can cycle or walk the Camel Trail – which passes through Bodmin on its way towards the fishing port of Padstow on the northern Cornish coast – or take to the seas at one of the highly-rated surfing beaches nearby.
