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.

Lovely wild camping pitches on the North Devon coastline. You will be one of a maximum of 6 pitches in a large field on the beautiful North Devon coast with incredible sea views. We can provide a firepit to borrow and you can purchase logs onsite so you can stargaze and chatter around the fire - back to nature! We are based just outside the pretty hamlet of Martinhoe in North Devon, a stone's throw from the SW Coast Path. There is a historic Roman Beacon closeby and plenty of wildlife around, we'd be surprised if you didn't see deer in the neighbouring fields! There is a compost loo and a water point, but no electricity / wifi - delightfully off-grid. Situated on an organic working farm this is the perfect place to escape!

Campsites near Port Isaac guide

Where to go

Tintagel

Tintagel Castle is the storied birthplace of King Arthur. It sits atop a rocky outcrop not far from Merlin’s Cove, a beach grotto named after the legendary wizard. A number of holiday parks with tent and caravan pitches serve the area, offering campers easy access to natural and historic attractions. Gaze upon the 60-foot St. Nectan’s Waterfall, seek respite at Bossiney Cove, and take in unique coastal rock formations, like Ladies Window near Boscastle.

Polzeath

A short drive west of Port Isaac, Polzeath Beach boasts great waves that are suitable for surfers of varying skill levels. A popular spot for sunbathing, as well, the sandy beach is surrounded by dramatic cliffs. Take in dramatic views of the Atlantic Ocean at Pentire Point and The Rumps, sighting local wildlife like peregrine falcons and seals. Partake in more water sports at Rock Beach or seek some peace and quiet at secluded Lundy Bay. Then stay at luxury static caravans or pull up to motorhome pitches with water views.

Hartland Devon Heritage Coast

A bit farther north of Port Isaac, Hartland Devon Heritage Coast is home to several storied villages surrounded by headland paths, dramatic cliffside cascades, and sprawling coastal views. The tranquil escape is ideal for reconnecting with nature while staying in tents, caravans, and motorhomes on private campsites that sit seaside or on working farms. Wake up and follow the iconic South West Coast Path to Blackchurch Rock, a spectacular rock formation near Windbury Hill that’s accessible during low tide.

When to go

Coastal weather in South West England can be unpredictable, but temperatures tend to be milder and rain is less frequent from late spring to early autumn. Daytime highs in summer tend to peak around 20℃ when crowds are at their busiest. Fishing for local species like mackerel, bass, and conger eel is optimal during warmer months, as well.
