Grassy green grounds with a helping of military history await at this rural site on the south coast of Cornwall, where you can pitch up on the site of a former Second World War anti-aircraft battery. The guns at Military Pod Camping once guarded the skies above the Lizard Peninsula, formerly a key strategic point along the Cornwall coast. Today, the Lizard has become a top destination for walkers, cyclists and beachgoers, and this site – in Ruan Minor, positioned between the village of Lizard (five minutes' drive) and Helston (15 minutes) – is in an excellent location to explore it all. This peaceful site borders a nature reserve and is within easy reach of natural beauty spots such as Kynance Cove, Cadgwith Cove and Kennack Sands – as well as the South West Coast Path which connects them all together. The amenities at Military Pod Camping include well-maintained toilet and shower facilities, as well as fresh water and a chemical toilet disposal point. Barbecues and firepits can be supplied by site staff on arrival. Wandering away from base, you can buy fishing equipment from the local rod and tackle shop or stop for drinks and snacks at an independent café, both of which are under half a mile away from site.

Dette sier kundene

Unik, rimelig campingplass med militærhistorie. Eieren, Ian, får mye skryt for hjelpsomhet og kunnskap. Fasiliteter er enkle, men rene. Flott for å utforske Lizard Peninsula. De fleste synes valuta for pengene er bra, noen syns fasiliteter er for enkle.

Likte Location

Likte ikke Pod wasn't ready, the owner was more interested in putting up a marquee which was right in front of our accommodation & we weren't able to park our vehicle next to us.
We were asked to wait for him to clean the pod by which time we'd had enough & we left.

Likte The site was clean well maintained-

Ian was lovely very welcoming chatty and showed us round when we arrived, reached out via text prior to arrival which we liked.

The site has a portaloo toilet and shower,both were really clean. Shower was powerful and hot!

Can’t say I’ve been in a portaloo shower before, but it definitely wasn’t a bad experience!

This site wouldn’t be everyone’s cup of tea but for £16 a night we thought it was fantastic!

Catherine P.

Camping-pod Military (for tre personer)

Likte We loved the quirkiness of being in a spacious open field on our own space with army vehicles surrounding us. Staff were very helpful attentive, friendly and available for our questions and any support we needed. The army truck pod had all the basic cooking requirements. Had our own porta loo and nice hot shower.

Likte ikke It is a very basic accommodation, luckily we had brought a mattress topper which helped ease the comfort as this could have been a less comfy experience. As we had fantastic weather a fridge would have been a bonus.

Likte Liked everything about this site. Firstly ease of communication, Ian answered the phone straight away when I called. Super friendly and so helpful. Even showed me and my son around the museum on what probably should of been his day off ! (Sunday)
This site has everything you need at an incredibly reasonable price. Sad to read the negative review below. Someone clearly didn't see the point and the work / passion involved in keeping the history of this place alive so we can all learn about it. Plus these people are volunteers !!! Location is great for exploring all around the lizard area. Highly recommend staying here. Shower and toilet spotlessly clean. Shower was lovely and hot. We loved it. Thank you Ian we appreciated your time !

Likte Super well maintained campsite. Ian does a great job keeping the place clean and tidy. Super interesting location with lots of history. This campsite is great for anyone looking to explore the lizard and I highly recommend this campsite if you are interested in local military history. Ian is a wealth of knowledge and you can tell he is very passionate about his site. Thank you Ian for another great stay.

Camping-pod Military (for to personer)

Likte The pod has everything you need for a glamping adventure including a lovely warm shower and your own private toilet.

Ian was so helpful and gave us a behind the scenes tour of the museum when we arrived.

We loved how quiet the area was, there was other campers on site but we were tucked away and wouldn’t have even known they were there

Plass på gressplen , uten strøm

Likte Great place to stay! Ian the owner was lovely and had a very fast response and turned up within a few minutes to show us about etc!
we loved all the old military equipment and was lucky enough to stay over a weekend when Ian had an open weekend for his museum there, he even fired some of the old rifles and cannons with blanks which was amazing to see and hear and had a little catering trailer open there for you to buy refreshments etc during the museum opening weekend
the site is in a great location and level ground and well looked after, also very remote and quiet, we have an autistic toddler who is often a bit wild and loud etc, we had no problems here at all in the 17 nights we stayed in the end, nice clean toilet and a hot shower to and fresh drinking water from a tap.

And I certainly wouldn’t let the odd negative review put you off!!

You need to read all the information Ian has provided before booking, as if for his amazing price he charges per night, you expect a clubhouse/bar and all day children’s entertainment and evening entertainment and big children’s play areas etc like the big very exspensive corporate sites, then that’s the only reason I could see anyone be disappointed.

We will certainly be going back in the near future when kids school holidays again as a perfect site for us and very happy with our stay!

Likte ikke That we had to leave and couldn’t live there permanently in a static caravan as such a lovely site

Lokale attraksjoner

Around the miles to the south, the Lizard Point (five minutes' drive) is the southernmost point in mainland Britain. Come for the far-reaching views, then head west along the coast to see the dramatic rocks at Kynance Cove (15 minutes), or make your way towards Cadgwith (10 minutes) in the opposite directions and experience the Devil's Frying Pan, a sea cave that collapsed in on itself. Inland, you could try your luck at angling at Countybridge Fishery (10 minutes) or head to Helston (15 minutes), the home of Flambards Theme Park and the Helston Railway, a restored Victorian steam line. Also inland (although on the edge of the pretty Helford river) is Gweek (15 minutes), where you can learn about marine conservation at the Cornish Seal Sanctuary. Another nice thing about the Lizard is that, while it feels distinct from the rest of the county, it's actually very well connected to the rest of Cornwall. Getting out to popular seaside towns like Falmouth (40 minutes), St Ives (40 minutes) or even Newquay (an hour) is easy if you fancy a change of scene, and must-see attractions like the Eden Project (an hour and 15 minutes) are close enough to be on your itinerary too.
