  • Pop-up campsite on a Cornish farm with views over St Austell Bay
  • A 15-minutes drive to The Eden Project and five minutes to Fowey
  • Pubs or cafés 10 minutes’ drive
With some seriously gorgeous panoramas over St Austell Bay to Fowey, Tremanor Farm camping park is on a south-facing field with a gentle slope. This peaceful, pop-up site on a working Cornwall farm may have a wild-camping vibe but it comes with a number of facilities along with those amazing sea views. Amenities include separate loo blocks showers, a washing-up area and plenty of stand pipes with drinking water throughout the field. There’s loads of extra parking too if needs be – but please note, this site has no electricity, so come prepared with torches and a supply of batteries. Lovely seaside Fowey (five minutes’ drive) is on hand with plenty of shops for keeping supplies topped up, as well as a host of pubs, seafood restaurants and ice-cream parlours if you don’t fancy cooking. The site is owned by a Cornish couple who have accumulated masses of local knowledge, so if you’re after handy tips on how to spend your time in the west country, please just ask away.

Non-electric grass tent pitch

Liked: Beautiful location. Basic amenities but perfectly clean and hygienic. Showers were lovely and hot! 5 min drive to Fowey and easy access. Grassy field was flat and loads of space for us. No noise from the road or other campers. Great camping - thanks!

Liked: Lovely peaceful site, amazing views and good pitches … the couple who run it are lovely and went put of their way to make sure we were all happy, can’t wait to see what else they bring to the site. Perfect for us as we don’t like commercial sites, plenty of space between tents etc hope their new venture takes off!

Non-electric grass tent pitch

Liked: Erm……..

Disliked: Very disappointed. Site is advertised as having shower and toilet block. On arrival the limit of facilities is a standpipe and bin. On the booking confirmation there was a small note at the bottom saying the toilets and showers were not available, however on arrival at 8:30pm after 10 hours on a motorbike this was of little use.

From the manager: Thank you for your feedback, we are sorry that you did not see the shower and toilet block that are in the photos on this page. They were all up and running on your nights visit. We will work on more signage so you do not miss them.

Local attractions

The site’s location makes exploring Cornwall’s big-hitting attractions a breeze. You can tick off The Eden Project (15 minutes’ drive), with its futuristic biospheres packed with tropical plants, and tour the Lost Gardens of Heligan (35 minutes) – and for something a little bit different, catch the daily boat service from Fowey to the gardens instead of arriving by car. As well as being the antiques capital of Cornwall, Lostwithiel (10 minutes) has delightful walks around Restormel Castle, and you could easily spend the day at National Trust-owned Lanhydrock House and Garden (20 minutes), which has a majestic house to explore, formal gardens to wander and some lovely woodland strolls – especially pretty in spring when the bluebells are out. And prehistory lovers, Castle Dore (10 minutes) is the remains of a (roughly) 7,000-year-old Iron Age fort with lovely sea views. Kids with you? There’s safe swimming at Readymoney Cove (five minutes), and for the very energetic, Woody’s Bike Park (10 minutes) has challenging tracks for mountain bikers of all levels. Kayaking or canoeing adventurers might like to head for the little village of Golant (15 minutes) on the Fowey river for a paddle upstream.
