'Our small camp site is in a quiet, sheltered position, in our orchard. There are terraces for the tents, which are reasonably spaced out. We usually only have about six tents even in the peak season. There are compost toilets, a solar shower, and a camp fire to cook on. An electric shower and a flush toilet are also available. The camping field is a car-free zone. (The car parking is close to the house, which is 200m from the camp site. The unloading point is 100m from the camp site. There are wheelbarrows to help you move your things). We have yurts and tipis available for hire. We hope to get internet access for your laptops in our Visitor's Barn. It is best to book in advance, especially if you have a large tent. We cannot accomodate camper-vans.'

"Our Yurts are perfect for a family adventure or a romantic retreat. Whilst you can experience all the freedoms and wonders of the great outdoors you can enjoy some of life's luxuries. Imagine… a real log fire in the log burner while you gaze out at the stars; sit around a camp fire roasting marshmallows; lazy days exploring hidden coves and cooking mussels on the beach.

You are unlikely to have noisy neighbours as our Yurts enjoy their own tranquillity. Indeed, the only late night noises you'll hear will be the hooting of the owls."

"With burning log fires and big open skies on the edge of Bodmin Moor the yurts are in a beautiful spot. Leaving your car behind, you come out on foot through the oaks and gorse to a view of north Cornwall that stretches from moor to sea. Following a meandering path for 120 metres down unspoilt natural heathland, lined with blue bells and wood anemones in May and Tormentil and Willow Herb in summer, you emerge through an archway of gnarly Cornish oaks into a small sheltered field"

"The Yurt is set alone in a secluded corner at the top of a southwest-facing field. The field has been lightly grazed by cattle for many years and has had no sprays or fertilizers and is full of wildlife and birdsong, it especially enjoys the afternoon sun. There is a cottage surrounded by trees at the bottom end of the field but is not overlooked by other houses. Our home and cottage is across Bells Hill, the road to Mylor, at the bottom end of the field. The Yurt is fully equipped for that 'back to nature' experience, with all the home comforts you need. Look up at the night sky through the roof light, peel back the sides to allow the air in or snuggle up around the wood burning stove, or sit by the campfire."
