The morning mist lifts off the coarse fishing lake just beyond the boundary, and you can hear the first casts hitting the water before breakfast.

This is a tidy spot for couples after a cosy escape or small families who want a roof and a proper bed without sacrificing that away-from-it-all feeling. The camping pods and chalets give you somewhere warm to retreat when the weather turns, and with a well-stocked fishery a short stroll away, it's quietly popular with anglers who like their creature comforts. Dogs are welcome by arrangement, so worth checking ahead if you're bringing your four-legged crew.

Facilities aren't extensively listed, so it's best to ask what's on-site when you book—this feels like a low-key, self-contained kind of place rather than a big holiday park. Campfires are a check-on-arrival situation, which usually means they're possible but weather- or pitch-dependent. Expect a peaceful stay, the kind where you actually finish your book and nobody's in a rush.

Illogan FP 5

Winds through former mining landscapes with gentle to moderate inclines, offering glimpses of Cornwall's industrial heritage. Suitable for families with older children who can handle uneven ground and stiles, but not suitable for buggies. Dogs welcome on leads near livestock. Worth it for the atmospheric engine houses and wildflower-dotted heathland that tell the story of Illogan's tin mining past.
