A note from the site themselves...

We offer a truly relaxed and friendly atmosphere here, where children can play ball games or enjoy the wide open spaces. Sat just between St Ives and Penzance we couldn't ask for a better location and we also are super lucky to have the most amazing sunset views right from the site too!

We look forward to welcoming you and hope you love it here as much as we do!

Small Tent - Non Electric Grass PitchesAug 2024

We had a wonderful stay at this campsite. Relaxed and built on trust, the campsite allows you to pitch where you want, borrow fire buckets and pay when you can (next day for example). The showers were hot and clean and loo roll always in the toilets. Overall, it was simple but perfect for a short stay and exactly how it was advertised. Owner was sometimes around if you needed anything but never bothered you or got in your way. Site felt very relaxed and friendly. Location was a drive from the beach but we found a £5 all day car park in a church just 10 minutes away. Then it was about a 20 minute walk to the main St Ives beaches! I'd definitely stay here again!

Great first visit

Medium Tent - Non Electric Grass PitchesAug 2024

A really great campsite! Though facilities are limited, they're everything you could need for a camping trip (pot wash, wetsuit washing area, showers, toilets). We had a really wonderful time with our toddler, and will definitely visit again!
