Why stay here ...

Badgers Folly is a small, family-run, site. With five large pitches available, each with their own electric hook up, visitors are in for a treat. Nestled in a World Heritage site, next to a bubbling stream, this idyllic site is both quiet and tranquil filled with birdsong and wildlife. Why not kick back and relax in our shady glade, where the hammock resides amongst the silver birch trees next to the stream.

Each pitch is spacious, has an electric hook up and a picnic bench. There are also several drinking water taps around the site as well as dedicated WiFi for guests. Our service area has a chemical toilet tipping point, grey water disposal point, hand wash, recycling and refuse point.

We have a fantastic shop just 1.5 miles up the road that can cater for all of your needs, selling fresh bread, local meat, off licence etc as well as an Organic Farm shop just up the road. The Coast to Coast Devoran to Portreath cycle trail passes just 1/4 a mile down the road from us where there is also a cycle hire facility & cafe. A mile in the other direction you will find Perranwell Station offering free parking, where you will be able to jump onto the Maritime Branch Line Service to both the Cathedral city of Truro (8 minutes travel) or the Harbour town of Falmouth (12 minutes travel).

There are many, many local walk and footpaths to explore directly from our gate. If you're looking for a local meal or drink, then there are several options, including the Royal Oak in Perranwell Station, The Old Quay in Devoran and The Cornish Arms in Frogpool (1/2 hour walk).

Our closest beach is Loe Beach (5 miles) where you can have a bite to eat at the beach cafe or hire Kayaks and Paddle Boards (discounts available to guests). Nearby there is also the truly beautiful National Trust's Trellissick Gardens, the King Harry Ferry to the Roseland, The Eden Project and The Helford.
