Why stay here ...
Tony, Helen and family welcome you to their Certificated Location based at Higher Treskillard Farm (not a working farm). The site is easily accessible from the A30 and ideally situated for all ages to explore Cornish towns, beaches and tourist attractions. We also have a fully equipped static caravan available if you're holidaying with non campers.
The nearest beach is Portreath, a 10 minute drive away, and the 3 miles of sands at Gwithian is just a 20 minute drive with both having areas that allow dogs. Access onto the Mineral Tramways Mining Heritage Trail is just a 5 minute walk down the lane from the site, great for dog walking and cycling.
The renowed Eden Project makes a lovely day out and the towns of Falmouth (Maritime Museum and boat rides), St Ives, Penzance, Perranport, Sennen, Lands End and very lively Newquay are also easy to reach. Stithians Water Sports Centre is a 20 minute drive, and the Heartlands Heritage Centre a mile away.
The nearest pub is less than a 5 minute drive, with meals and entertainment. Tesco Extra is the nearest supermarket 1 mile away.
There is a dog exercise area on site, and separate to the CL is a static holiday caravan.
Ideal for Dogs, Walking, Cycling, Exploring and Relaxing.

Higher Treskillard Farm
Lovely well kept site with a very clean toilet and recycling facilities on-site.Easy access and Helen and Tony were very pleasant and helpful, nothing too much trouble. would recommend and stay there again.
What A Find!
Higher Treskillard Farm
Made our booking by email which was responded to promptly by Helen, the owner. Easy access and a choice of five level hard standing pitches all separated by hedges and each with their own bench. Super friendly owners who were able to give lots of information about the area - sheet provided. We used our bikes to explore the disused mineral lines which can be accessed at the bottom of the lane. Plenty of walking from the site - I managed a circular route taking in Carn Brae. Lots of supermarkets in Redruth/Camborne but if you only want milk/bread, there is a Morrison's Local at Troon about a mile and half from site. There is also a cafe at The King Edward Mine which is about a 20 minute walk from the site. The site has a small dog walking field available. There is also a toilet. I believe the site is Adults Only. Highly recommended and would definitely revisit if in the area. Cost for two adults was twenty pounds with electricity on a meter (we used about seven pounds over three days).
Great site
Higher Treskillard Farm
Lovely and well kept site with great access to the west coast of Cornwall and its beaches and also easy to access the tip of Cornwall and its beautiful coves, fishing villages and activities.
The site is kept very clean and grass mowed regularly with a good welcome sheet with all the relevant information for your stay. Toilet room kept very clean and tidy.
Best of all was very easy access to the dog field for our dog Tommy. May not be the biggest field but plenty of room for him to run safely and happily. Quick walk down the lane to the Great Flat Lode trail which was picturesque with lots of old mining buildings adding interest to the walk.
We did visit the local Countryman pub for a drink but didn’t stay to eat. It did appear to be more of a drinkers pub.

Lovely CL in the heart of Cornwall
Higher Treskillard Farm
We were welcomed on arrival by Helen and shown to our pitch, we were given number 5 because we had a dog and what an excellent pitch it was, right by the lovely dog walk, our own little garden seat and lots of space, in fact all the pitches were of a very good size, with hedging marking your pitch area, all flat hardstandings with grass for awning or just lazing. There is a toilet available on site, which was beautifully decorated and kept spotlessly clean, water, grey waste and chemical waste all with easy access.
The site is in an excellent location for visiting the west of Cornwall, with some beautiful beaches within a 20 minute drive, Gwithian Towans is a fabulous beach with plenty of sand for everyone to enjoy, including dogs all year round, Portreath also close by, both great for surfing and plenty of cafes to enjoy lunch or afternoon tea. We cycled the Mineral Heritage trail, good for cyclist and walkers alike, access to the trail just a short distance from the site.
Helen and Tony were always on hand, friendly and helpful, we will definitely be visiting them again, the site is a credit to them!

- Lovely CL to stay at -
Higher Treskillard Farm
NOT in the Site Directory as the CL only opened this year, I understand - and found purely by accident on the Club Website. Very pleased we DID find it, however, particularly as I'd done a lot of ringing around - to no avail - looking for a week away in many of the Cornish CL's. ALL the photographs shown, ALL DO the Site justice. A really lovely spot, well laid out pitches of hardstanding and grass, pleasantly peaceful with Countryside Views all round - AND a very comprehensive 'Welcome Pack' on arrival, which we thought was a very nice 'touch' to our stay. A Big 'Tesco' a short distance away, a pub along the Road (which we didn't try, but other Visitors were very complimentary about - and a 'handy spot' for the North or South Coast Resorts. A 'Top Notch' CL - and worth ALL the Five Stars!
