Area guide

Food & drink

From in-season doorstep deliveries of Cornish bread and bacon to the cook deck for glampers and the restaurants of Bude, you won’t go hungry in the valley.

There’s a covered cook deck for glampers on site, deliveries to the gate, and a town full of pubs and cafés two miles down the road.

Deliveries to the gate

During the season, local producers deliver fresh bread, sausages, bacon, honey and milk to the site, so breakfast tends to sort itself out.

If you’d rather do a proper shop, Bude’s shops and supermarkets are only two miles away. Ask us and we’ll point you towards who delivers what.

The facilities

There’s a covered cook deck — gas rings, sinks and a fridge under a timber roof, with the valley in front of you while you cook.

There’s a vending machine on site that sells soft drinks only; snacks are in the shop in reception. The block is open 24 hours. The shop in reception covers hot drinks, ice creams and the essentials, and a local pizza van is on site in high season.

Eating out in Bude

Bude, two miles away, has a good spread of pubs, cafés and restaurants — everything from a post-surf coffee to a proper dinner.

For seafood, Padstow is worth the drive.

Cooking where you’re staying

Every lodge has a full kitchen. Boskenna, the Airstream, is fully self-contained, with an induction hob inside. Bluebird has gas cooking outside, and the cook deck at the facilities is there to use as well.

There’s no cooking inside the bell tents, but St Petroc, St Enodoc, Sea Campion, Fistral and Polzeath each have a gas cooker on their own deck and Hartland and Kernow share a gas point opposite them. Fistral, Polzeath, Hartland and Kernow also have the covered cook deck at the facilities a couple of minutes away; St Petroc, St Enodoc and Sea Campion have their own smaller cook deck instead, by their shower block in the glamping car park. Millook has its own gas cooker on its deck, with a fridge and kettle inside the hut, and Bude is a couple of miles away for the rest.

Bring the basics or, in season, let the local deliveries do the work.
