Cornish Tipi Holidays & Camping
UK England South West England Cornwall Port Isaac
Tipis and tent pitches, masses of space, a fishing and swimming lake... and all within striking distance of North Cornwall's best beaches
Rural Cornwall doesn’t exactly strike you as ultra-modern, a place ahead of the curve. Take this campsite, for example, arranged around a stunning spring-fed lake in the old Tregildrans quarry it has an altogether more timeless quality. The thick, mature trees, the emerald waters and the fern covered escarpments that tumble down into the lake could well have been painted in a picture many centuries ago. There’s no onsite shop taking contactless payment cards, no Wi-Fi, no playground. It’s all a bit 1920s. Isn’t it?
In fact, few campsites are as ahead of the curve as Cornish Tipi Holidays. Back in 2005 when we first discovered the site in our first edition of Cool Camping: Kids, the campsite had already been running for ten years and was championing something innovative. Set up in 1996 by Elizabeth Tom, it was the first commercial tipi campsite in England and was offering nights beneath the stars in a tipi before the word ‘glamping’ had even been invented. Today the 19 North American-style abodes are still going strong, with two different sizes on offer, but are now joined by regular camping too.
While fashionistas are throwing up Alice Temperley-style tipis and yurts across the great British countryside, Cornish Tipi Holidays, ever ahead of the game, are part of the new back-to-basic counter culture. Bring your own tent, avoid the crowds and pick whatever pitch you want – an open meadow space with fellow campers, a private, secluded clearing among the trees, a grassy patch with views… there’s a full 20 acres of beautifully rural space to explore, so you’ll easily find a spot to suit.
All of these campers have the same facilities as the tipi dwellers – hot showers and loos – while the campsite environment lends itself wholeheartedly to anyone with an imagination. It’s easy to spend entire days by the lake, messing about in a boat or fishing for trout (bring your own rods and licence) and life-jackets can be borrowed from the warden. You can even bring your own canoe if you want to. Hide and seek along the winding paths edged by tumbling blackberries or bright-yellow gorse is a must, while there’s also the larger ‘village field’ for children to charge about in, and the ‘top village field’ has a spectacular totem pole. In this wilder-than-wild environment, kids can’t fail to flourish. No surprise, then, to hear that Alice Temperley herself spent her honeymoon here. Now what on earth would Hiawatha have thought about that?

Facilities
There are loos and hot showers at either end of the site and an extra, larger shower block, too. Every tipi has a lantern and box of utensils, along with rugs and a few simple furnishing (see website for details). Campers can re-freeze their own ice packs using the freezer in our reception. There are standpipes and water-containers throughout the site. The site’s proud to be off the National Grid, so you can really get back to nature here. There’s the lake, paths, streams and woodland to explore. Boats and lifejackets can be borrowed. Fishing is popular, as is cooking the catch on a campfire – campfires should be raised off the ground.Suitable For

The Owner Says
A woodland valley folded around a clear, spring-fed lake created from the old Tregildrans Quarry. Our tipis and tent pitches are dotted about this secret 20 acres just inland from the North Cornish coast near Port Isaac.
Social Distancing Measures
We are working hard to introduce new measures to refelect best practice in terms of socail distancing this summer. We are able to offer 10m + spacing between pitches and tipis for most of our camping, although in a few areas this may not be possible. We're still trying to work these last pitches out. We are going to be doing increased Covid-19 cleaning of loos and showers thoughout the day.

Fantastic - Worth every penny!
Myself and my partner stayed here as a last minute booking for 2 nights. (Wish it was longer) This whole place and atmosphere was incredible. There's so much to do and all locals are very friendly. Lovely hot showers and well equipped site. It's great value for money and we are already looking to go back in a few weeks! Thank you.
Lovely woodland - close to Port Isaac
We stayed here for 3 nights in August. The site is lovely and our spot was nestled in the woodlands. The staff were super friendly and trusting - you can use the boats on the lake at your leisure and grab firewood to pay later. There’s a pretty relaxed vibe here. The only downside of our visit was a wedding which had music playing until midnight. We were told of this in advance however only via email after booking (no refunds given). Just something to be aware of if you’re booking particularly in the summer months.
Perfect swim spot
A really lovely site. The staff are so friendly and helpful. The Gastropod, very tasty and very welcoming. We had a great Wild Camping pitch and the lake was delightful for lazy evening swims. Very close to the beautiful Cornish coast and Port Gaverne where we enjoyed some great coasteering. Would definitely recommend staying here.
A perfect place to stay with a laid back atmosphere
The staff were always cheery and helpful; kids could run free and have fun whatever the weather; open fires for a bit of campfire cooking; what more could you want - will be going back again
What a peach!
It was sometime during our second evening at the site, sat around our own crackling fire, bellies full of freshly caught and cooked rainbow trout, that we all agreed: if you wrote a list of ‘my perfect campsite’ features, there wouldn’t be any entry without a tick in the Cornish Tipis column! Fabulous, good value, lovely staff. I will definitely be back.
Great site
Great site run by very friendly people. The lake was amazing and fishing a bonus.
Back to nature
Beautiful calm campsite. Clean and private camping . Beautiful lake , boats to use and swimming. Charming, helpful staff. Loos and showers clean and maintained regularly. Great cafe. Great coffee. Kids could run free and cycle.
Beautiful place to stay
This place is out of this world! Peaceful and quite. Very clean facilities. The staff are friendly too. There is a quarry lake that have boats you can row out on. Can't wait to visit again. It's a great place for families as there is wildlife and we had a daily visit from a resident cat. It was just wonderful.
The ‘magical, wild canyon’
The kids loved running off and pretending to hunt for gems in the jurassic park like woods. They loved the quarry (or ‘wild canyon’ as one of them described it!) It was so special to be able to swim in the lake. Fun for all ages! If the youngens dont like the wild swim then they love the boats. Great area for coast access and friendly and helpful staff on site, good food in the caff too.
Great camping site
I knew about this place previously, but only recently discovered that you can now bring your own tent and go camping here. They do it really well in that you can get your own private 'wild' camping pitch, but it's not really wild, as the showers are not that far away. Beaches are not far, but we spent quite a bit of time messing about on the lake at the campsite. Be warned - sat nav may not be that reliable to get you here!
