Flora bell tent (four person)
Liked: Woodland walk when we arrived, loved the open fire and we got assistance from the owners when our logs wouldn't catch fire. The teepee was amazing and so great to have all equipment, made our stay so easy. Really enjoyed the site, it's gorgeous and beautiful and the kids have already asked to go back!
Disliked: We were one of three couples staying so it was very silent, but this wasn't to worst - also the showers are very much open to the elements, so if you fear spiders be ready to skip the outside washrooms!

Hobbit Hole cabin (secluded)
Liked: This is a really unique place to stay in a beautiful area. Our hobbit hole was so cute and cosy. We loved watching the birds, insects, butterflies and squirrels while eating breakfast outside the hut. The price was really reasonable for peak season in popular Cornwall. Highly recommended!

Non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch
Liked: Really fun camping in the rural Cornwall. Loved the natural site with an almost fairy like forest, open grass fields and nice lookouts on the Cornwall meadows. From the camping we traveled the far west and north of Cornwall by car, which was perfectly doable within 2 hrs.
