Our campsite is situated among the rolling hills of North Cornwall. Therefore, despite selecting our most flat area for camping, many pitches may have up to a 5% or 1/20 incline. If you have a campervan or caravan, you may wish to bring your ramps. We have 14 acres of beautiful open space dedicated to camping pitches. If you would like to book a specific pitch, or you are booking multiple pitches and would like them to be in the same area, please contact us directly at reception@wyldevalleycamping.co.uk and we’ll check pitch availability for you.
What Previous campers thought
“My family and I have had numerous camping trips to Cornwall, all of which have been incredibly enjoyable, but Wylde Valley is without doubt the best camp site we’ve ever stayed at. The large electric plot we had was just that, large, more space than we could believe. The site facilities were also superb and the showers were without doubt the best we’d experienced on a camp site! I would have no reservation in recommending Wylde Valley Camping!”
— Ian, Cool Camping review“Thanks for a wonderful camping trip! It was the friendliest, cleanest, nicest campsite we’ve ever been to and we are desperate to book again!”
— Tracey, direct feedback“The most wonderful campsite. Huge pitches, the terrific shower and toilet block. Nice touches everywhere. We stayed in our camper-van and a little tent but would love to stay in one of their fancy bell tents some time in the future. If you are in the area it’s a must! Thank you!”
— Katie, Google review“Lovely Campsite… amenities are easily the best I have come across... by some margin! 100% recommend. The team are relaxed, friendly and welcoming, yet run a well maintained and clean campsite.”
— Stuart, Hipcamp reviewWHAT WE DO & why we are a ‘pop-up’ campsite
For the past 15 years, we have run large scale events, showcasing world renowned acts including Paloma Faith, Paul Weller, Rag’n’Bone Man, Fatboy Slim, and Chase and Status, to name a few - and an annual family friendly music festival (a local favourite, so we’ve been told) called Leopallooza! And so we have plenty of experience catering for thousands of campers a year.
In 2021 we began expanding and upgrading our camping areas to include stone tracks throughout the campsite, brand new flushing toilets, hot showers, wheelchair accessible toilets and showers and washing facilities. We also organised our camping areas into spacious designated pitches, and took our boutique bell tents to the next level, building each tent its own individual wooden deck, and furnishing to a higher standard than ever seen before at our events.
We loved having campers here so much in 2021, that this year we are back to do it all again!
Local Attractions
North Cornwall’s tourism industry has grown phenomenally over the last few years, and it’s easy to see why - places that used to be local secrets are now shared with the world, and wow are they worth a visit.
Here at Wylde Valley Camping, we are lucky enough to be situated in the centre of amazing attractions all over North Cornwall and Devon, and are just a short drive away from some of the UK’s most beautiful beaches, and some of the world’s most interesting geological features and historical settlements.

Yes! We have fire pits available to rent on site, you can prebook this when you book your pitch, as well as logs for sale. We only ask that all fires are extinguished responsibly by 11pm.
Are BBQs allowed?
BBQs and camping stoves may be used on site, please keep these raised from the grass and extinguish responsibly after use. We discourage the use of disposable BBQs, they're not nice to the environment we're pretty big fans of!

Parking for one vehicle is included with all pitch bookings. To add more than one vehicle, please add as an extra when you make your booking. We have a separate car parking area for additional vehicles.
How long can I stay?
A few nights or a few weeks - the choice is yours!
What if the weather is bad?
Contrary to popular belief, it does occasionally(!) rain here in Cornwall - luckily we believe that there is no such thing as bad weather, only bad clothing choices! Bring wet weather gear and go for a stomp whatever the weather, or check out our nearest all weather attractions.
What if Coronavirus restrictions prevent us from visiting?
In the event government covid restrictions prevent your visit or the site opening, you will first be offered a new date for your stay. If rescheduling is not possible, then a refund, minus any booking channel (ie Cool Camping, Airbnb or Pitchup) fees and payment provider fees, will be offered.
Are there any site rules?
- No pets (including dogs) - unfortunately we cannot allow pets on site, we're sorry for any inconvenience this may cause.
- We politely request that noise is kept to a minimum between 10 pm and 9 am.
- Last check in time for camping pitches is 6pm. All vehicle movement on the campsite is prohibited after 9pm, if you arrive at the site after this time, then you will need to park your car in our separate (but still close!) parking area instead.
- No large groups of adults / stag or hen weekend parties - we are a quiet, family and nature centred campsite.
- Leave No Trace - We pride ourselves on being as eco-oriented as possible, with sustainabilty at the centre of the ways we operate and build as a campsite. We ask that our guests do the same, recycle wherever possible, and leave no litter behind. Our site is in a gorgeous rural setting, and litter is bad news for the wildlife that calls it home. Please dispose of glass safely.
