Non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch

Liked: Not far from coast. Local shop and bakery few minutes away. 3 fields, so much space. Peaceful and quiet. We have been woken up every day by hundrets of birds singing. Basic facilities but I don't care. Two showers 3 toilets. Shed with running cold water, kettle, microwave, small fridge and a freezer. You can also charge your phone or powerbank. £10 per night during half term for ma and my teenage boy. Hot water is the main thing for me. Kind farmer asked us if we need help with puting tent up as we struggled a bit with wind.

Disliked: I havent dislike anything as I coldnt care less about basic facilities if you have peaceful camp site few mileś from cost, beautiful beaches, sea pool, Padstow, pasty shops, Tesco Not far. I dislike the fact i dont live in Cornwal 😀

Local attractions

With so much choice in the way of beaches and coastal hikes, you’ll want to weigh up your options. To go to Constantine Bay (five minutes’ drive), a sandy destination with excellent swimming and rockpooling? Or Harlyn Bay (10 minutes), another sandy spot that has kayaking and paddleboard hire, coasteering activities and a surf school for those of you looking to catch your first wave? There’s Treyarnon Bay (10 minutes) to brush up on your surf skills some more and Mother Ivey's Bay (10 minutes) if you’re searching for a more sheltered sandy bay. As for other ways to take in the gorgeous coastline, head to Padstow (10 minutes) to board a boat from the fishing port or Trevose Headland (10 minutes) to go birdwatching along the National Trust's clifftops. The following both have camel in the name, but they’re very fine activities with a different spin: Camel Creek Adventure Park (10 minutes) is packed with family-friendly rides and animals that the kids can meet up close, while The Camel Trail (10 minutes) is an 18-mile old railway trail that will take you on a cycle from Padstow, past the estuary and into Wadebridge.
