About Wheal Busy Holidays

Situated just ten minutes from picturesque Cornish beaches and the South West Coast Path, this family-friendly glamping site is your ideal base for exploring Cornwall. Just a ten minute walk into the charming village of Chacewater with a wonderful country pub, you'll have everything you need within easy reach. The smaller, appropriately named, Baby Belle sleeps up to two guests in a double bed, nestled in its own private field. The larger bell tent, Busy Belle, is great for families and can sleep up to four in a king size bed and a sofa bed that converts into two singles or a further king size bed. Both of the bell tents come fully furnished with luxury hotel finishes. You will have an electric hook up with sockets, a kettle and coffee-making facilities, along with a mini fridge with an ice compartment, great for a refreshing drink after a long day out. Outside of the tents, you will find a food preparation area, along with a washing up sink and a picnic bench for al fresco dining. For cooking up dinner or your morning's full English, you will also have a two-burner camping GAZ stove with a grill, a BBQ/ fire pit, crockery, pots and pans, along with salt, pepper and condiments. For something quirky, the site also has a modern Airstream available which can accommodate up to two guests with a queen size bed or two singles. Inside you will find a fully equipped kitchen with an oven, gas burner hob, sink, under-counter fridge/freezer, crockery, utensils, seasonings and spices. You will also have the luxury of your own ensuite with a toilet and shower, along with a hairdryer, travel iron, toilets and cleaning products. Playing cards and books are provided for your entertainment, along with an outdoor picnic table and fire pit/BBQ. All of the units will also be provided with sun loungers, perfect for making the most of warm summer days. Sit back and unwind as your soak in the glorious views over the neighbouring countryside and the unique Wheal Busy tin mine chimneys. Four-legged friends are also welcome to join you for your stay so don't forget to pack some dog treats!
