The scent of clotted cream drifts across the pitches from the working farm next door, mingling with salt air that blows in from the Lizard Peninsula just a few miles south.

This is proper Cornish farmland camping — grass pitches for tents, campervans and caravans on a site that keeps things refreshingly straightforward. Families will love the farm connection, and anyone exploring the far south of Cornwall will find this a well-placed base for coastal walks, hidden coves and the wild beauty of the Lizard. Dog walkers should check the current policy on arrival, as should anyone hoping to light a campfire — it's worth asking.

You've got toilets and showers onsite, nothing fancy, just the essentials done well. The vibe is relaxed and rural, with the bonus of Roskilly's famous ice cream practically on your doorstep. Expect a genuine farm setting, not a manicured park — which for many campers is exactly the point.
