A tranquil, tidy farm campsite with excellent modern facilities. Spacious, level pitches. Owners are friendly & helpful. Great location for exploring Cornwall, close to a good pub. Fresh produce available. Some noted limited electric pitches or small toilet cubicles.

Non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch

Liked Loved the sound of chicken, ducks and mooing of cows especially in the morning.
There was fresh eggs and few veges available to buy.
The family who runs the place are very nice.
Clean and comfortable facilities (they check shower and toilets very often). I felt sad i forgot to take a picture of it.
Would love to come back again.

Lorraine H.

Electric grass touring pitch

Liked Lovely friendly site with great countryside views. Booked EHU and was allocated pitch 6 which is massive! 2 indoor full bathrooms with good showers. 2 separate toilets. Use of microwave toaster and kettle which was a handy alternative to camp cooking.
Fresh farm eggs and some veg available which was lovely. Great alternative gift to take home instead of fudge!
Fantastic country pub around the corner with live acts every night. Really friendly welcoming staff.
Short 10 minute walk to mines and only 30 minute walk to the top of Bassett monument with great views over west Cornwall
Not a negative as such but suggestion that they try to provide an area for grey waster drainage for campervans.

Non-electric grass touring pitch

Liked Lovely campsite with great, clean facilities too! Isn’t very big which is a bonus so it’s nice and quiet meaning we never had to wait to shower or use the toilet. Some cute touches with the eggs & veg for sale and the location is perfect. Short walk from Carn Brea too, we did a sunrise & sunset walk up there which was so beautiful! Thanks for having us :)

Non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch

Liked Really liked the simplicity of the site, with 2 very clean showers, the fresh eggs tasted amazing.
But the highlight for us was seeing the rare Emu birds! Wow they can run fast

Electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch

Liked Views, level, good size pitch, clean facilities, friendly owners, farm livestock children could see. Quiet, no club but my 9 & 11 year old grandchildren loved it and enjoyed playing games. (No screens) Fresh eggs and vegetables to buy at prices cheaper than supermarkets. Easy to get to. I could go on....

Disliked Nothing. Only thing that might have benefited was a freezer for cool blocks but wouldn't stop me going again.

Route directions

If approaching from Redruth through the village of Carnkie, don't turn right up Carn Brea Lane. Instead, continue out of the village and take the next turning on the right behind the large sign saying 'Welcome to Piece'. The entrance to the campsite is almost immediately on the right. If approaching from Pool/Camborne, turn left at the Countryman pub and then take the next left into Bowling Green. Again, the entrance to the site is on the right-hand side.

Local attractions

A proud beach bum or just fond of some sand-based activities? The waves at the large, sandy Portreath beach (15 minutes’ drive) are a magnet for surfing, while dog-friendly The Towans has sand dunes that are well suited to an easygoing walk or perhaps some sandcastle construction. Tehidy Woods (10 minutes) is another place to get your dog's exercise in. Meanwhile, at Land's End Landmark Attraction (50 minutes) you can swap forest trails for clifftop paths (and some bargain-hunting in the shopping village). Add a little tropical flavour to your stay… the rainforest biomes at Eden Project (55 minutes) are the type of place where you’ll want to get lost on purpose. Another of these lose-yourself-worthy gardens is The Lost Gardens of Heligan (55 minutes), with over 200 acres to look around. And to conquer some new lands? At Flambards Theme Park (20 minutes), you’ll be in a whole new sphere of rides and rollercoasters, while Pendennis Castle (half an hour) will take you back to Tudor times with its weaponry, keep and fortress.
