    We needed a place to stay along our route up Cornwall for one night and staying in a bell tent was pretty luxurious compared to regular camping. The site is cozy and clean and our ‘standard’ bell tent came well equipped, even with coffee and tea...

Relax and unwind, under the stars in a Lakeside Star Bell Tent sleeping 4 people. The setting is a stunning small off grid eco campsite proudly recognized with a Silver Green Tourism Award with pitches overlooking it’s beautiful 2 acre lake. Wild, natural and peaceful, it’s the ideal place to get away from it all whilst being within easy reach of some of the most popular holiday destinations on both the north and south coasts of Cornwall. The site facilities include composting toilets and off grid, hot showers. The following is included in your bell tent: Real king sized bed with a real mattress. 2 floor based airbeds (if needed) All bedding Low level table Gas stove (to be used outside) and kettle 4 Mugs Tea, Coffee & Milk for your arrival Cool box and ice blocks (we can re-freeze them for you) Mirror One re-chargeable lantern Bunting Door mat and rug Fire pit, some logs are provided (extra logs available to purchase on site) Please note, you will need to bring your own towels.

Just 9 miles from Mawgan Porth, 10 miles from Padstow, 11 miles from Newquay and 15 miles from Mevagissey it’s the perfect place to get away from it all, while still being within easy reach of some of the most popular holiday destinations and beaches on both the north and south coasts of Cornwall. When the sun is shining, a trip to the beach is a must. Just a 15 minute drive away you will find the sandy shoreline of Mawgan Porth Beach, with the popular spots of Newquay and Porth Beach within a 20 minute drive too.
