The smell of salt air drifts up from the cliffs even before you've pitched your tent, mingling with the earthy scent of farmland that surrounds this working Cornish site.
Gear Farm suits campers after a proper coastal escape without the bells and whistles — tourers and tent campers who want space to breathe and easy access to the South West Coast Path. The farm sits in classic north Cornwall walking country, where dramatic cliff scenery and sandy coves are part of the daily backdrop. Families who don't need a playground and couples keen to explore the area on foot will find the balance just right here.
You'll find clean toilets and showers onsite, and it's worth asking about campfires when you arrive — policies can vary depending on conditions. The vibe is straightforward and unpretentious, the kind of place where you park up, unwind, and let the coast do the talking.
