Trelay Farm Campsite
Small, eco friendly and close to the beach!
About: Here at Trelay Campsite we embrace our eco focus by allowing areas of wild grasses and wildflowers to grow between each spacious pitch (pitches are 8m by 6m minimum). This supports wildlife, as well as providing more privacy for campers. Visitors enjoy our well-kept amenities, including the nearby toilets and showers, a shared indoor space for food preparation and drying clothes, and access to a fridge, freezer, kettle and charging points for phones and other small devices.
We have 10 pitches spread across two areas. The larger of the two features seven pitches centred around a picturesque communal space with tables and seating. The second is tucked away just behind, overlooking a field often used for sheep and cattle.
Dogs are welcome (max. 2 per pitch) but must be kept on the lead at all times to avoid worrying the livestock. The nearby coast path and countryside offer plentiful walking opportunities and we are within easy reach of the Camel Cycling Trail, which runs from Bodmin to Padstow. We are also just a few hundred metres off Sustrans National Cycle Route 3, which forms The Cornish Way cycle route from Lands End to Bristol, taking in some of the most stunning parts of the country.
There is a well-stocked local store and Post Office, petrol station and pub only half a mile away. The Coombe Inn pub at Crackington Haven also serves good food and overlooks the sea, so you can enjoy the sunset over the ocean with a drink in hand.
We provide a fire pit for each pitch, which is available free of charge for the duration of your stay. Firewood, kindling and firelighter bundles are available when booked in advance. We also offer a marshmallow and hot chocolate bundle for delicious fireside indulgence! These options can be selected at the time of booking.
Bude is around a 15-minute drive with its shops, restaurants and beaches. We are truly spoilt for choice with our beaches and have everything from golden sands to rock pools to explore and clamber over, plus great surfing - and the opportunity to hire equipment and book lessons locally too.
The beautiful harbour village of Boscastle is about 20 minutes away by car and the home of legendary King Arthur, is found at Tintagel Castle, around 25 minutes away. The mystical St Nectan’s Glen offers a walk through lush forest before reaching the waterfall and there is a nature trail for children by the tea room. Nearby are the mysterious labyrinth rock carvings at Rocky Valley dating from the early Bronze Age (1800-1400 BC), keep walking to the coast path for sea views and a small waterfall.
Other options for entertaining children include Hidden Valley puzzle park, Camel Creek theme park, Trethorne leisure park, and swimming pools at Bude and Camelford, all around 30 minutes away, or less. Many more attractions are found only slightly further afield.
Worth Noting: Facilities include flushing toilets and hot showers. Tents and campervans are welcome. We are part of a co-housing community of 15 households, working together to run a smallholding, grow veggies and live lightly together. There is no access to the resident’s part of the property, but if you are interested in co-housing, please arrange to speak with us and perhaps visit (by prior arrangement only).
