About Trevena Cross Camping
This base is well placed for exploring south west Cornwall and the South West Coast Path. The site is a two minute walk from a main bus route and an ideal location for car travel as the A394 connects to Penzance and the A30 west and Helston onto Truro and Falmouth to the east. The site is a spacious, relaxed campground where you can choose your plot and just pitch up. There are ten spaces for tents and trailer tents, each without electric. If glamping is more your style, both a furnished and unfurnished bell tent are available. Each 6m tent sleeps up to four, with the furnished bell coming with a double and two single beds too. Children are welcome and have a dedicated vehicle free play area complete with a toy box. Dogs can also join you for your stay, with up to two permitted per pitch. Be sure to bring along the BBQ, just ensure it is raised from the ground and an adult is presence when in use. Ground fires are not permitted.
Trevena Cross Camping is open from 05/07 to 15/07 and 18/07 to 29/08.

Things to do on site and in the Helston area
