Lizard View Camping
A quietly spotless 22-pitch farm site in Wendron with far-reaching views across the Lizard Peninsula and an owner who genuinely looks after you.
Lizard View sits on farmland in Wendron parish, four miles from Helston and squarely in Cornwall's Lizard AONB. The views are the whole point: on a clear day you can pick out the Goonhilly Earth Station satellite dishes riding the horizon, with the Lizard Peninsula rolling away beneath them. Twenty-two grass pitches, eight of them with electric hook-up, spread across a well-kept field that reviewers consistently call generous in size.
The facilities block is the kind that makes you suspicious it's still new, and it is: toilets, showers, and washing-up area are immaculate, with more additions in progress. The owner is present and hands-on, the sort who checks in without hovering. Families are the natural audience here, and a kids' play area is on site, but the site's quietness suits couples equally well. The resident cat is an unscheduled bonus.
Porthleven's harbour is a 20-minute drive. Lizard Peninsula beaches are within 30 minutes in any direction. Footpaths and bridleways connect directly from the site for those who want to leave the car parked. Wendron's UNESCO World Heritage mining landscape is on the doorstep.
“A family-run site that earns its reputation through fastidious upkeep and a genuinely welcoming owner. The Lizard Peninsula views from the pitches make this one worth the drive.”
