Fox Camping

A small North Cornwall campsite, mostly tents with a few van pitches, run by an owner who makes pizzas on site: small, generous, and genuinely good.

Fox Camping sits in open Cornish countryside near Warbstow, with the top field pitches earning their reputation for wide views and clear-skied mornings. Victoria runs the site with the kind of care that only makes sense if you actually love what you're doing: facilities are housed in a converted barn (spotless, with a good woody smell), and there's a covered communal shelter for classic British weather. Pitches are spacious enough that a full house doesn't feel like a crowd.

On site, Victoria makes fresh pizzas and delivers them to your tent seven nights a week, with proper vegan options, and keeps a fridge stocked with drinks and snacks for when you can't face the drive. Games, body boards, and colouring are on hand, less family-holiday-park, more thoughtful-host. Every pitch has its own free fire pit and picnic table, and on a clear evening the star-gazing from the top field is the reason this patch of North Cornwall earns its reputation for dark skies.

Widemouth Bay is around 18 minutes by car, with other Cornish beaches easily reached from here as a base. Quiet hours after 9:30pm keep the evenings as still as the setting deserves.

Before you book

  • Most pitches are tents only; vans can go on pitches 7 to 10 in the top field. There is no electricity on site, so no hook-ups.
“Victoria's campsite earns its reputation through genuine host care and a top-field view that rewards an early morning. Bring your own logs or rely on hers; either way, you'll find it hard to leave.”

Why it made the cut

  • Owner-present, owner-run, Victoria is the site, not just the person who collects your pitch fee
  • Top-field pitches with wide Cornish countryside views and genuine dark-sky quality
  • On-site pizzas from the owner, a free fire pit on every pitch, covered shelter for wet evenings
  • No electricity on site, so no hook-up cables crossing the grass, and most pitches are tents only
