Cool Camping
"...a tap and a loo, and Cornwall's best view..."
That might have been a good description of us when we started way back in 1999. But whilst the fantastic view hasn't changed (and we still have the taps and the loos!), we have over the years added many facilities, while keeping the site small, friendly and in tune with the local environment
These include:
A swanky veranda-fronted shower block which delivers solar heated rainwater into cubicles lined with sheets of recycled plastic bottles and yoghurt pots - free of charge and each the four showers is located in its own family-sized pine-clad room
A laundry with washing machine, tumble dryer (both coin operated), fridge, freezer (for your ice packs), secure lockers with plugs for recharging your mobile phones & a hairdryer - in case you are worried, all of the electricity for the farm is supplied by the local wind farm at Delabole (courtesy of Good Energy)
Four washing up sinks - two with hot water
A kiddies play area with swings and a goal - all made from reclaimed timber and telegraph poles
An LPG filling point - for those who have been sensible enough to convert their vehicles to this more environment friendly fuel
There are no marked pitches and we limit the number of people on site so that there is plenty of room for everybody to stretch out. We also sell home produced lamb burgers and sausages, as well as bags of wood so that you may experience the ultimate in cool camping - a campfire!
 children (under 16) £3 under 5's free 10% discount for stays of 5 nights or more! OPEN 1st May - 31st October To book, please download and print one of our booking forms Booking Form (Microsoft Word) ~ right click and select "Save Target As..." Updated 19/04/08 |
Dogs
Because we are a working sheep farm and because of our close proximity to the open moors we cannot accept dogs however small or well behaved. However next door to South Penquite is an excellent boarding kennels which would then give you the freedom to explore Cornwall while keeping in daily contact with your pet
Penquite Petcare can be contacted on 01208 850360
please book well in advance - these kennels are extremely popular
