Stunning coastal walks

  • Spectacular views over St Mawes and Falmouth bay
  • Five minutes’ drive to beach with: water-sports, kayak hire and more
  • Beautiful scenic woodland walks on our door step
If wind-swept coastal walks with your four-legged friend are your jam, pack your hiking boots (and the lead) and head to Trewen Farm Campsite, a peaceful spot where you can set up on a vast grassy area with spectacular views of the sea. Things feel blissfully remote here, but you’re only half a mile from the nearest village – Budock Water – so when you fancy a pint or you need to stock up on barbecue essentials, you don’t have far to go. For more restaurant options, head to lively Falmouth (10 minutes; or take the bus, which runs a regular service from Budock Water). Woodland trails cross the farm and link to a wider network of walks in the surrounding area, including the South West Coastal Path, which takes you past rugged cliffs and dramatic seascapes to lookouts like Stack Point (50 minutes on foot) and beaches like Swanpool (one hour on foot), a stretch of sand and shingle with kayak and paddleboard hire, plus a miniature golf course. There are also trails in Carwinion Woods (10 minutes), which is a riot of colourful wildflowers in the spring, and a circular walk along the shores of Argal Reservoir (15 minutes), where you might indulge in a spot of birdwatching or fishing (be sure to get a permit for this). If this is all too tame for you, get your adrenaline going at Via Ferrata Cornwall (15 minutes), with multiple routes up granite cliffs.

What customers say

Peaceful spot with lekker views across Falmouth Bay. Facilities simple but mostly clean, though shower temps can be a bit iffy and some bits need a spruce-up. Great quiet location, close to walks and Falmouth. Friendly staff always a plus. Despite minor facility hiccups, good value and worth a return.

Liked Lovely campsite with a beautiful view to the sea, lovely and clean toilet and shower block, plenty of separate bins for recycling. 3 miles from Falmouth.

Disliked Our only quibble was that the shower was ‘warm’, fine for a splash and dash but couldn’t face washing hair 😂

Liked Friendly staff, view, cleanliness and space.

Local attractions

The National Maritime Museum Cornwall, overlooking the harbour in Falmouth, displays among other things a collection of small boats from all around the world – from dinghies and lifeboats, to outrigger canoes. Medieval jousts take place throughout the summer at Pendennis Castle, built by Henry VIII on a rocky headland. Green-fingered visitors make a beeline for splendid green hubs such as Trebah Garden and National Trust Glendurgan Garden (both 10 minutes’ drive). The latter spreads across three valleys and has a cherry laurel maze planted almost two centuries ago (1833). Trebah is renowned for its collections of rhododendrons and camellias. Thrill rides at Flambards Theme Park (25 minutes) include the vertiginous Skyraker drop tower, but there are also gentler, more child-friendly attractions, such as a traditional carousel and a miniature western mine train, plus indoor themed areas like the Victorian Village.
