The site was absolutely perfect. Drove in and in front of me was a vision - a beautiful barn, comfortable seats, books, fairy lights, very upmarket festival style food van and bar. Such a friendly welcome from Martin, who runs this area, and Tanya who owns the site. I had a chimnea for my plot, all set up for me, with wood and fire lighters. Everything was very organised and also very chilled. The site is "off grid", so don't go expecting power showers, but it has everything you need and is clean and loved. Perfect! The massages available on site are incredible!
Great campsite

We loved our stay at Coastal Valley Camp and Crafts. It is a really pretty site with lots of space to explore. The location is really convenient for Newquay and lots of beaches without too much travelling. The facilities were well kept and clean and The Barn serving food and drinks was a great place to go on chilly evenings. Tanya and Dave were friendly hosts, providing lots of local knowledge and always on hand to help if you needed anything. Overall a great site which I would highly recommend.
Amazing, clean, tidy and friendly

We have absolutely loved our 5 night stay here at Coastal Valley Campsite with our medium tent without elec. The showers are the best showers we have had through our multiple camping holidays. The site is clean and tidy. There's a beautiful bar/eating area with string lights by the stream where we had a lovely pizza, ribs and garlic bread. We feel this site is very underrated- we will definitely be coming back here as it is our new favourite campsite and our dog absolutely loved it!

There's also a programme of weekly communal feast nights, so you can put your feet up while the family enjoys a stonebaked pizza, curry, or slow smoked roast.
There are three beaches within walking distance of the site, all accessed via public footpaths at the foot of the land. Just 1.25 miles away, across the fields and headland, is the famous Watergate Bay. Alternatively, it's just a mile's country walk to either Porth Beach or Whipsiderry beach.
