The crunch of gravel beneath your feet and the distant call of gulls announce your arrival at this unpretentious Cornish camping spot, where the Atlantic breeze carries that distinctive mineral tang of being close to the sea. Prosper House Camping strips away the frills to offer a straightforward pitch for your tent, campervan or caravan in the heart of Cornwall's dramatic coastal landscape.
This is camping for those who prefer simplicity and self-sufficiency, with the South West Coast Path and Cornwall's celebrated beaches within striking distance. The site suits independent campers happy to explore the region's fishing villages, surf spots and clifftop walks by day before returning to a quiet pitch come evening.
Facilities are kept pleasingly simple with clean toilets and showers available. Whether you can light a campfire depends on conditions, so check when you arrive. The overall atmosphere is relaxed and unadorned—a proper Cornish base camp rather than a resort, where the main attractions lie beyond the gate in the wild beauty of the surrounding peninsula.
Add a single landscape photo from your trip — pitch, view, sunset, anything but people. We’ll add it to the gallery after a quick moderation check.
