🌿 Camping Season: 3rd April – 18th September 2026
Welcome to Tregonetha Lake – your little corner of paradise.
We’re Mel and Tom, and we’d love to welcome you to our peaceful, eco-friendly camping site, proudly awarded a Silver Green Tourism Award.
Sometimes you just need to slow down and surround yourself with nature. 🌿
If you’re looking to escape the hustle and bustle of everyday life, wake up to birdsong, enjoy beautiful lake views and reconnect with nature, you’re in the right place.
Our small, off-grid campsite is surrounded by beautiful Cornish countryside, with a stunning two-acre coarse fishing lake at its heart. Watch damselflies dancing across the water, spot kingfishers and other wildlife, enjoy spectacular sunsets over the lake and spend your evenings beneath some of Cornwall’s darkest skies.
Although you’ll feel wonderfully tucked away, we’re perfectly placed for exploring Cornwall. Mawgan Porth is just 9 miles away, Padstow 10 miles, Newquay 11 miles and Mevagissey 15 miles away, making Tregonetha Lake the perfect base for exploring both the north and south coasts.
As a Freedom Camping Club Certified Site, we offer peaceful, low-impact camping in a natural setting — no membership required.
Camping
Tregonetha Lake is home to around 20 camping pitches, so while you’ll have other campers nearby during busier periods, we’ve designed the site to feel spacious, peaceful and relaxed. Whether you choose a lakeside pitch or one of our secluded woodland pitches, there’s always plenty of room to unwind and enjoy nature.
All camping pitches are non-allocated, so simply choose your favourite spot when you arrive and make yourselves at home.
Fishing
At the heart of the campsite is our beautiful two-acre coarse fishing lake, where guests can enjoy peaceful days by the water surrounded by nature. Fishing day tickets are available during your stay.
🍕 NEW for Summer 2026 – Wildfire Lakeside Bar & Kitchen
From 16th July until the end of August, we’re excited to introduce Wildfire – Lakeside Bar & Kitchen.
Enjoy stone-baked pizzas, homemade loaded nachos, cold drinks and fresh coffee beside the lake while watching the sun go down.
Opening Hours
Thursday: 5:00pm – 9:00pm
Friday: 5:00pm – 9:00pm
Saturday: 1:00pm – 9:00pm
🍳 Breakfast
Fresh coffee and breakfast rolls are available every morning for campsite guests between 8:00am and 10:00am.
🍕 Sunday – Wednesday
Don’t fancy cooking?
We also offer evening food for campsite guests by pre-order between 5:00pm and 9:00pm. Just let us know in advance and we’ll have everything freshly prepared for you.
🥐 Freshly Baked Breakfast Treats
Fresh croissants and pain au chocolat are available to pre-order and collect from 8:00am each morning.
A little about us
We’ve called Cornwall home for over 20 years and love sharing our favourite beaches, walks, restaurants and hidden gems with our guests.
Tom is a keen surfer and is always happy to recommend the best local beaches depending on the weather and surf conditions, while Mel is full of local knowledge to help you make the most of your stay.
We’re a small family-run campsite and genuinely enjoy meeting the people who stay with us. Whether you’re here for a weekend escape, a family holiday or simply passing through, we hope you’ll leave feeling relaxed, refreshed and already planning your next visit.
We can’t wait to welcome you to Tregonetha Lake. 🧡

We pitched right by the lake and it was the perfect spot. Such a peaceful location, surrounded by wildlife, making it a lovely place to switch off. The grounds are beautifully maintained, and the toilet and washing facilities are spotless and really well thought out. We also really appreciated the eco-friendly approach!
The hosts were so welcoming and friendly from the moment we arrived, and nothing was too much trouble. We honestly couldn’t fault the place at all. Such a wonderful little campsite and we’d happily come back again🤍

This is the most wonderful campsite. The hosts are super friendly and the view from our pitch of the sea was just fantastic. There was a really relaxed atmosphere with like minded campers. Pitches are spacious, but as they are all on grass, may not be completely flat. (This can be easily sorted with some levellers though.) Don't be put off by the composting toilets, they were immaculately clean and smelled fresher than most plumbed in toilets! Hot water in the 3 outdoor shower cabins was plentiful. The food van on site is top notch. It's around a 15 min walk down to the village by road (very safe) longer along the coast path which you can access from the site. It's a bit of a climb back up the hill home though:) hearing the shanty singing on Friday night was a big highlight of our trip, not to mention the seafood and cream tea we had down in the village too.
All in all this is one of the best campsites we have stayed at, if you like a more natural campsite experience but with the convenience of loos, hot showers and a food van for when you don't want to cook. We stayed an additional night but wished we could have stayed another week! 100% recommend.

Bush Farm was such a lovely, spacious, and welcoming site. From the moment we arrived everything was clearly sign posted and we were greeted straight away. The map provided was very helpful too!
The campsite is huge and gives such a range of spots- we chose a spot next to the river and it was gorg! We hope to return!

Fantastic campsite! Loved swimming in the pool every day and using the diving board. The shop sells everything you could ever want with fresh bakery delivery each morning. Live music every night was a real treat too! Playground perfectly situated under shady trees and great monkey bars.
