Lena May's Meadow

Me gustó: This is a perfect back to nature campsite for those who want a break from the world rather than more of it. There's no road noise and on clear days we enjoyed a great view of the stars and even saw a comet shower whilst enjoying our campfire. The facilities are spotless and it's a perfect place to let young children roam free without worry (ours are 4 and 7). The host is really helpful, easy to contact and couldn't do more to make us feel welcome. The area is amazing too, nearby Helston town has lots going on, some fab walks or bike rides down to Porthleven as well as theme park and plenty of beaches to explore etc, we even managed a daytrip to the Scilly isles and Lands end which we also really enjoyed.

Me gustó: We loved our stay at Lena May’s. The campsite was beautiful and quiet, just what we were looking for. We enjoyed so much time out for ourselves and the dogs and enjoyed being able to switch off completely. Fergus was really welcoming and helpful and on hand whenever needed.

Del administrador: Great to see you had a fab visit. Hope to see you again next season.

Me gustó: Wonderful location in a nature setting with lots of space to pitch and privacy offered by the tall meadow grass between. A great central location from which to explore. A very friendly welcome from Fergus. I had a great break and was very relaxed travelling alone to this beautiful spot. Spotlessly clean too.

Me gustó: Leanne and Fergus were extremely kind and helpful throughout our stay - very friendly and welcoming. The campsite was clean, safe and had good access to facilities. The location was great, perfect for exploring the surrounding areas and the campsite itself had lovely views of the Cornish landscape. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and will be coming back again!

Del administrador: Thank you for a wonderful review. We are glad you enjoyed our site, it was great to welcome you. There will always be a space for you here so hope to see you again soon. Happy Camping!

Me gustó: The Meadow was absolutely perfect in every way.All of the 6 pitches are very well spaced out with high grass etc meaning you feel like you have your own personal space.While we were there for a week in June 24, there were no other campers - bliss for us but not great financially for the owners.Fergus was great and on hand if needed and they checked in a couple of times with us to see if we were ok/wanted more wood for the fire pit.The shower which is in a shed is great, as to is the compost toilet.These could get a little busy if all pitches were taken.There are a lot of walks right on your doorstep which take you through some lovely countryside.The meadow was in a great location too, with everywhere we visited within 10-20 mins away - St Ives being just over 20.There is a local pub in Breage and the landlord and his staff were really friendly - we had a roast on the Sunday which was amazing and could walk to and from it which took about 20 mins.There is also a big Tesco and Sainsburys in Helston for all your needs, which is about 10 min drive.All in all a wonderful stay and are going back next year.Thank you Fergus and Leeann

Me gustó: We travelled a grand total of 12 miles (from Penzance) to stay at Lena May’s Meadow. We wanted to give our 5yo and 1yo a bit of a bank holiday adventure whilst road-testing a new family tent. We couldn’t have picked a nicer site.

The meadow is at the end of a long farm track which means it’s set well back from any road. The paths and 6 pitches are cut into the meadow which means you’re surrounded by long grass, giving a real feel of privacy even when the other pitches are occupied. The facilities are basic - a composting toilet, a shower and a basin for washing up - but they were all in full working order and immaculately clean for our stay. The shower is a little cramped (I am 6’3”) but the pressure and temperature were both great.

A fire pit was provided and wood is available to purchase if necessary. Having a fire as the sun went down and the stars came out was a real treat.

Lena May’s Meadow is exactly what we look for in a campsite. You feel immersed in nature and extremely peaceful, and the lack of light pollution gives rise to some stunning stargazing.

The owners, Fergus and Leeann, are extremely pleasant and approachable should you need anything. Fergus met us on arrival to show us around, and you get the sense that they genuinely enjoy sharing their corner of paradise with people. We’ve already booked to go back next spring and we can’t wait.

Del administrador: We are so happy to share our ''little corner of paradise'' with you. We are always wary of tall people like yourself in the shower but it definitely stood up to the challenge. Look forward to seeing you all again next Spring. Thank you.

Me gustó: This was our first time wild camping and we throughly enjoyed it. Customer service was excellent, the pitches were spacious and it was exactly what we were looking for with a child.

Del administrador: The pleasure was all ours. We get such a kick out of campers enjoying what we have to offer. Cant wait to welcome you back again soon.

Me gustó: Everything! Had a fab stay at Lena May’s. Loved that the pitches were really big and had lots of space between them, plus you could choose your own. Lots of privacy because the pitches are mowed out of a meadow, so high grass all around, plus lots of wildlife to see! Fergus was so helpful and was really easy to contact both via text if there was anything we needed. They were both so accommodating and friendly! Really great location, close enough to drive to lizard, lands end, north coast, etc. in less than an hour. Overall, a great place to stay!

Del administrador: Thank you for a great review. Really love the photos. Glad you had a great time with us. Look forward to welcoming you again.

Me gustó: We all loved our stay at Lena Meadow's. The Campsite offers large pitches spaced out for maximum peace and privacy in a gorgeous meadow. During our stay we were luck enough to see a deer peak out of a hedgerow right next to our tent.

Conveniently located its only a 10 minute drive to Porthlevan, but also central enough that one can use as a base to explore Cornwall

The facilities were clean and in good order, enough to ensure all comforts are met while keeping the 'wild camping vibe'. Of note the Composting Toilet, which I was a little apprehensive of before arriving, is clean, modern and does not smell - regular up keep ensures that it is nicer to visit than many campsites' plumbed in facilities.

The hosts are lovely, greeting us when we arrived, enthusiastically answering our questions about local nature and available if/when needed

I hope that we can return again soon
