About Roselidden House Camping
The small family-run campsite of Roselidden House is the perfect rural spot to switch off from everyday life. Explore beaches on both the stunning coasts of Cornwall whilst also taking advantage of the nearby National Trust wooded sheltered walks around Loe Bar. There are grass pitches for tents only, with the smaller pitches holding up to two people and the standard pitches holding up to six. Additionally, there are five grass pitches specifically for caravans and campervans only. All pitches are non-electric. On-site, you will find a variety of lovely farmyard animals including five foster donkeys, two orphaned sheep and a flock of chickens all of which you are very welcome to meet. Dogs are welcome but due to the presence of farmyard animals, they must be kept on leads at all times.
