The Meadows is an adult only base close to beaches, the South West Coast Path and plenty of Cornish coastal charm. It's family run and offers the perfect mix of back to basics 'proper camping' and electric pitches for those who want to have a few extras. Next to a great local cycle trail and 10 minutes from the Lost Gardens of Heligan.
About the site
Camping here is in six acres of grounds, meadow and woodland, in a sheltered and sunsoaked spot. Friendly and small, it welcomes those staying under canvas, caravans, campervans and motorhomes.
