About the site
Whether you're after a relaxing family holiday, attending a celebration, participating in a course or volunteering on one of the site's environmental projects, camping and glamping here offer a memorable place to stay. Expect breathtaking views down to the beach at Porthtowan and over the Atlantic, as well as to St Agnes Beacon and the historic mining valley of Tywarnhayle. Plus, a cleared mule track leads down the valley towards the beach below (a 20 minute walk). Spacious grass and hardstanding pitches are available on a huge field with optional electric, ideal for campers and tourers. Even in summer at maximum capacity, there is plenty of space to get away from it all. The simplistic, handcrafted eco pods sleep up to two guests and include a double bed, bedding, towels, solar lights and USB charging ports. A selection of shepherd huts also offers a cosy glamping choice for your Cornish adventure. Small Woods and Ty View sleep up to two, Allotment 2 sleeps up to three, while Beacon and Allotment 1 sleep up to four. All are beautifully furnished with beds and cooking facilities, and three shepherd's huts even have the luxury of an ensuite (Tywarnhayle, Allotment 1 and Allotment 2). Well behaved dogs are very welcome on the park, and pets are welcome across the grounds. Campfires are encouraged in the cob courtyard (communal area), and fire pits and barbecues are welcome as long as they are kept off the grass.
Camping is available from April to October, with hardstanding pitches and glamping available from end of January to December. Pitches from £24/night for 2 people.
