  • 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; bus stop for Fowey across the road
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. A bus stop with a connection to Fowey is just across the road, and if you need to do laundry, facilities are just over a mile away. The site is also 20 minutes' walk away (just over a mile) from a bar with good drinks and live music gigs throughout the year. 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.

What customers say

This campsite offers peace, quiet, and stunning views. Guests consistently praise the friendly owners and clean, hot showers and toilets. While facilities are described as basic, they are well-maintained and functional. The spacious, open fields provide ample room, and the location is ideal for exploring Fowey, the Eden Project, and the wider Cornish countryside. A few guests noted minor issues with the shower design and occasionally wet or overgrown fields, but overall experiences were very positive.

Non-electric grass motorhome pitch

Liked We had a super stay at Tremanor Farm, Tessa and Michael were absolutely wonderful hosts, friendly and welcoming. To find a campsite in August with ample space and superb views is a dream. The toilets and showers were perfectly adequate for our stay. The main reason for choosing this campsite was so we could attend an event at a local music venue, the venue was about a 20 minute walk

Non-electric grass motorhome pitch

Liked Semi wild camping. Huge field with views, very tall hedges for shelter. Personally we don't want play parks, shops etc we want to camp not sitting next door to our neighbours in bays here you have massive spaces each. Functional toilets and shower block a stroll away. Ideal for Golant and kayaking, music at Bar Silo, Fishermans Arms amd New Inn pub, Polkerris and other beaches.

Liked The peace and quiet of the field with stunning views. We met the owner and she was very helpful and we had a lovely chat. The toilets and showers were nothing special but they worked and the water was hot. Don’t go if you want something fancy - but it had everything you needed and as I said at the beginning the peace and quiet - with the views weee brilliant.

Non-electric grass tent pitch

Liked Central to places I needed to be
Not expensive
Good view from the top of the hill
Spacious
Quiet & peaceful
If you like camping basic and unfussy (without a load of nonsense rules) this is for you!

Disliked Toilets (broken taps, sink area dirty and festooned with cobwebs & no paper towels for hands)
Showers (made very cheaply with wood, floor and bottom of walls filthy, nowhere private to change except wet shower cubicle)
Showers burning hot, not suitable for a child, only went for a minute before you had to press again (like swimming showers)

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.
