Small, friendly site on Bodmin Moor, 25 minutes' drive from Bodmin
Half an hour's drive from south coast beaches and Eden Project
Peaceful location for walks, stargazing and wildlife-watching

Stargaze by night and take on cycling routes, mountain climbs and moorland hikes by day… at Bodmin Moor Camping, you won’t be short on things to do in the outdoors. Indeed, this simple, back-to-basics site is right on the Bodmin Moor and 25 minutes’ drive from the town of Bodmin when it’s time for eating out, shopping or going behind bars in an 18th-century jail museum. With such a remote and peaceful location, splendid rural views are a given, but you’ll be far from cut off. The site has easy access to all sorts of Cornwall attractions and activities – the Eden Project and the south coast are both around half an hour’s drive away, and it’s about a 45-minute drive to the north coast for visits to Newquay, Tintagel and Port Isaac. Closer to home are bike rides on the Camel Trail and other quiet cycle paths, fishing at Colliford Lake and Bodmin Moor hikes including climbs up Brown Willy (nine miles away). Outdoorsy time on site might involve getting a blaze going at the communal firepit (with a stack of wood provided), exploring the site’s woods and stream or looking out for the deer and badgers that often pass by. A distinct lack of light pollution often leads to some excellent stargazing after dark, too.

Camping pod

Liked: Beautiful eco pod in such a beautiful private, secluded setting. We loved the fire pit and logs provided. Our hosts are kind considerate people who also provided us with pizza and eggs upon arrival after earlier request. The pod comes with our own private shower area with fridge and kettle for hot drinks and charging our technology kit. The latter is away from the pod and includes a private toilet. The pod heats up well during the day and stays warm over the night. Comfortable bed and all clean and tidy. Towels are provided as well as a working desk and chairs. Plenty of parking space.

Disliked: No electric supply although it is supposed to be wild camping. We brought our own AC supply from battery and invertor. Lights provided are simple but don’t stay on permanently.

Willow bell tent

Liked: Jenny was incredibly friendly and welcoming, she allowed us to have an early check-in so we could get ready and dash to wedding. The tent and set up were lovely, unfortunately it was raining on our stay, but the fire pit looked great and we wish we could've stayed longer to appreciate it all. The compost toilet near the tent was immaculately clean and felt like a normal toilet. The location is great for walking, I but definitely recommend having a car to get you to places.

Non-electric grass tent pitch

Liked: Loved the drive through the beautiful Bodmin Moors to the site, greeted by super friendly hosts and enjoyed the seclusion and privacy of the field in the valley. The only sounds we heard were birds and the river. Made good use of the camp fire and the free wood was a nice touch. Would love to return.

Local attractions

It’s tricky to run out of places to ride your bike around here, and there’s something for the mountain biking fans among you too, because the Cardinham mountain bike trails (10 minutes' drive) have runs for beginners and pros and Woody's Bike Park (35 minutes) continues the adrenaline-induced cycles – so carry on with shredding up the trails. For a little less of the land and more of the water, Newquay (45 minutes) will let you take the steering wheel (or paddle) on your chosen watercraft or spend a day at the beach. And for more waterside scenery, Colliford Lake (10 minutes) has plenty on that front. Historical places, yes please… go for walks around the woods of a Victorian country house at Lanhydrock House (20 minutes) or spy on the shore from the Tintagel Castle (45 minutes), which is on its own island out to sea. Look into an old slate mine in the Carnglaze Caverns (15 minutes) and when you’re done with those history book pages, you could turn your attention to the slightly more futuristic rainforest biomes at Eden Project (half an hour) – with whizzes down the zipwire on-hand for those adventurous sorts.
