East Crinnis Holiday Park

Site facilities shared between campers and glampers include excellent showers and toilets and a play park for children. There is also a kitchen for washing up, which offers a microwave, kettle and freezer.

A coin operated laundry is provided and a small shop is located inside The Shack (open mornings in April, May and Sept and then mornings and evenings late May until early Sept) and also offers a takeaway, live music and quizzes. Free WiFi is available, though signal strength cannot be guaranteed.

It's just over a mile to the Par Inn and a selection of restaurants.

East Crinnis Farm was originally established by my great granddad William Olford in the late 1800's. Prior, East Crinnis had been a thriving mining community with the 19th century being the peak of production from Tin and Copper.

During the 1920's, the farm expanded and gained productivity especially leading up to and during the Second World War.

During the second half of the 20th century, my grandfather, Roger Olford, farmed with the arrival of holidaymakers staying in the farmhouse. In 1989, Glyn and Betty (mum) started a small certified location campsite beginning with just five pitches.

Year after year they added to it and by 2005 they had built three log cabins. In 2010 I came back to run the site and now with my family, we are developing the site every year.

Following on from University, I travelled and worked in various hospitality environments from the USA to Holland, Austria and South America before returning to my beloved Cornwall and spending ten years as an operational manager at the Eden Project.

We run the site how we would like to holiday ourselves and we like to maintain a friendly, peaceful, safe, extremely clean site which respects the habitat and environment around it.
