A note from the site themselves...

We're a third-generation family farm, based on the edge of the lovely market town of St Ives. We work hard to care for the land using modern farming methods, while also doing our bit to look after the environment.

Our campsite has been part of the farm since 1986, and it's something really special to us. With peaceful countryside all around, it's the perfect spot to relax, unwind, and enjoy nature at its best.
