Cool Camping with Wild Canvas
Book Now - Cornwall Campsites are already nearly Full for August
We are based near Truro and can deliver your glamping tent to anywhere in Cornwall, west of the Padstow, Bodmin, Liskeard line. However, if you want us to deliver elsewhere in Cornwall or Devon, call and we can discuss the options. Nothing is impossible and we are always happy to help.
In Cornwall there are a large number of very good campsites for cool camping, glamping and it is very difficult to reccomend specific ones, as everyone has different likes and dislikes. We like nice quiet ones away from the bustling crowds, others like the energy of people around. Some like quaint or quirky, some like views above all else. And if you speak to surfers, all they care about are the waves! Although, secretly, it stands to reason, they have to go 'cool camping'.
Please note though, Cornwall campsites are often places set on hills with beautiful scenery. Sometimes this means the pitch is not bowling green level. But if you want to go glamping in one of the most beautiful places on earth.........
Some good sources for information on campsites in Cornwall can be found on the websites
If you know of good glamping campsites, please let us know so we can add them for others to find.
Our Suggestions:
Below are a few campsites in Cornwall we know of, but don't specifically recommend, with our own personal observations. We suggest you visit their websites, or call them, and see if they suit your glamping requirements. Click on the names to link through to their websites.
One suggestion we do have is that if you do not want to be near children, book outside of the school holidays. There are very few adult only campsites in Cornwall and children are, by their nature, noisy. If you are after total tranquility, avoid those peak family times.

Lizard TR12 7NX |
Very quirky, artistic, friendly, fun. If you are of the more artistic / musical bias, this is definitely the site for you (and the Lizard is beautiful!) |
Higher Pentreath Farm 01736 763222 |
Praa Sands TR20 9TL |
Small, quiet and very basic, with some amazing views if you get the right pitch (just ask). The very simplicity of this site is what makes it good. |

Gwithian TR27 5JT |
A very nice, small, very simple, clean rural campsite in amongst trees and a short drive from the beaches. We love it because it is so unpretentious with a very friendly owner, Steve. |

A nice campsite where the owners really do have a pride in what they do. A few minutes walk from the excellent surf beach of Gwithian. A great beach for barbecues on low tide evenings. Already full for August 2012 |

St Agnes TR5 0XP |
A very nice little campsite run by a couple with great local knowledge of Cornwall. As they are also touring motorcyclists out of season they understand the requirements and this is definitely one for us glamping two-wheelers to go to! |

A pleasant family site, a short drive from the beach at Porthtowan. A good, clean site with good kids facilities. |

Some good sea views, large, good childrens play area. Close to beaches. Although classing itself as rural it is more the smart and efficient than quirky! |
