What customers say
A pristine, well-kept campsite with great, level pitches and helpful staff. Washrooms are spotless with hot water. Perfect base for Cornwall's stunning coast. Wi-Fi can be spotty, drainage issues noted. Worth a return trip.

Electric grass tent pitch
Liked We enjoyed our stay at Atlantic Bay as it was rather quiet, which is important as we travelled with our small child. The playground was about 7 minutes walk from our tent but behind buildings and wasn’t causing any disturbance at all.
At a cost of 20p you can use some facilities such as hair dryer which was great. There were other facilities like ironing, washing machines. A large fridge freezer available to store some items and freeze your blocks came in handy. Shared facilities were cleaned daily. Beautiful location to watch the sun setting. It felt safe, nice relaxed atmosphere. Within a 7 minutes drive to the nearest beach, and multiple others within the 30 min drive. Great location with plenty to see and do nearby with children.
