Cornish Tipi Holidays & Camping

9.8km from Polzeath · 168 units · Tents, Motorhomes, Glamping
Wake up to the sound of birdsong, go swimming before breakfast in the clear water of a secluded lake. Cook your bacon and eggs over an open fire while you plan your day, or just laze it away in the peace and quiet of your own personal tipi. You can always go fishing tomorrow, and walk along the cliffs the day after that…
The site is a unique 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 full of ferns, bluebells, oak and meadowsweet.
Left in peace for many years there's been no modern chemicals or poisons on the land, meaning we've got bluebells, dormice, Red Admirals and shy woodland Jays for you to spot.
It’s a place set apart from the rush and clutter of the modern holiday experience, with an atmosphere that makes you forget the world outside, and just lounge, ramble, or potter about in a boat.
We're committed to giving you a genuinely individual service from first contact to your time staying with us.
We established CTH in 1996. This was the first and we believe still is the best tipi holiday site in the UK. We know our area inside out and can always help with local knowledge or contacts if you need them.
We want to offer our guests a sustainable holiday. A return to real camping means the lowest possible impact on the land and environment - our tipi poles don’t even break the surface of the earth. Your footprint while here could only be bettered by a survival expert. You don't have to fly! a major bonus, and we source all our wood, fish and canvas locally and work with local people wherever possible.

Laurence was a lovely guy. He shared his local knowledge with us. He gave us some free kiwis he had grown as it was my partners birthday.
The site is less than a ten minute drive to Penzance.
The facilities, included several large toilets and showers which were newly installed and worked well. There was an outdoor area for waste water and washing up. There are four areas for parking up, the one we stayed at had an electrical hookup (if required) and a water (drinking) outlet.
The price is a little high, in my opinion.

We loved the location, tucked down a farm track, in the shelter of a lovely wooded river. Great eco facilities, we love a composting loo and the outdoor showers were fabulous. Tim on site was really helpful and friendly. Gorgeous, generous pitches and so peaceful. The wash up area in the wood is a lovely spot but a little far from the site and in the less sunny months would get a bit waterlogged I'd imagine. It was no bother to us as we boiled water and washed up on our pitch, but might be an issue at a busier time perhaps. We loved our stay, good value, a great site with a fabulous ethos. Right up our street, would wholeheartedly recommend. The river walk is a lovely amenity and lots of places are easy to reach from it's central location.

We’ve just got back from a fantastic week at Mushroom meadow. The site was just perfect - spacious pitches in a gorgeous surrounding with never a queue for the loo and plenty of hot water for the showers! We found loads to do nearby on both the north and south coasts and really appreciated Clare’s helpful local knowledge and tips too. Thank you so much for a great week - super hosts and we particularly loved our evening fires with Tim. Highly recommended.

We had a really nice stay here. The site was quiet and peaceful and the host was very helpful. The little woodland at the end of the field is very nice for a stroll and we walked into the village which has an amazing bakery, shop, pub and fish and chip shop. Location is good for getting around Cornwall. Would definitely stay again.

We had a wonderful stay in Jonathan's land. He is very welcoming and helpful.
From the camp, we had beautiful views of the river and felt truly immersed in nature, surrounded by the silence.
A compost toilet and a cute and spacious shower in a horse box were all the services we needed to make our stay comfortable.
We would love to go back one day!

Mushroom Meadow is a peaceful field well away from any roads. Surrounded by a wild meadow and trees each pitch is flat and mown short for a good pitch. It is a friendly place. Clare and her staff are very helpful. There are very clean compost loos and effective showers. It is a "get away from it all" sort of place. Don't miss the legendary Philps pasty shop in the village!

We had such a lovely, peaceful stay at Jonathan’s.
Our pitch was perfectly tucked away with a wonderful view of the river.
Our three year old loved exploring and seeing the chickens and ducks roaming around the farm. Fresh eggs for breakfast were very much enjoyed!
Jonathan was a brilliant host, friendly and helpful and great communication.
Would highly recommend for a peaceful get away if you like a simple wild camping set up.
The location is magical, we hope to return one day soon!

I had such a lovely stay at Mushroom Meadow campsite in late April. It’s so quiet, tucked away in the Cornish countryside, and feels super calm and private. The eco vibe is great, and everything’s quite simple. The individual hot outdoor showers were lovely and much needed after a hot day, and it was a nice novelty to be able to hear the birds whilst in the shower!
Because the site is so rural, there is next to no light pollution at night and so the stargazing potential is huge. I could see so many more stars than I can ever see at home! And the campfire pit is a lovely addition to an evening, especially coming back to the site after a day out to find it crackling away as the sun set, lit by the staff on site for me.
When I was looking for a site, I wanted somewhere quiet that I could feel safe, switch off and enjoy nature for the weekend; this place was perfect.
