The crunch of gravel underfoot and the distinctive call of gulls overhead signal your arrival at this straightforward campsite on Cornwall's spectacular coast. Views sweep across the surrounding landscape, while the fresh Atlantic breeze carries that unmistakable tang of salt and sea that defines this corner of the South West.

Summit Camping suits no-nonsense campers who prefer their Cornish adventure without bells and whistles – walkers tackling the coastal path, families seeking a base for beach days, and tourers exploring the peninsula's dramatic shoreline. The pitch-up-and-go simplicity appeals to those who spend their days out discovering smugglers' coves, surfing beaches, and clifftop rambles, returning only to sleep under canvas or park up for the night.

Facilities cover the essentials with clean toilets and hot showers, while tent pitches sit alongside spaces for campervans and caravans. The campfire policy requires checking on arrival, so ask at reception if you're hoping for an evening around the flames. The atmosphere remains refreshingly unfussy – this is Cornwall camping stripped back to what matters: location, fresh air, and freedom to roam.
