Beacon Cottage Farm

Beacon Cottage Farm Holidays is a small, peaceful campsite set on a traditional working family farm near St Agnes on the North Cornish Coast.

Perched above the cliffs in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, the site offers 60 level grassy pitches spread across six landscaped paddocks — some with sweeping views of the Cornish coastline as far as St Ives, others more sheltered by hedgerows and wildflowers.

Six pitches are fully serviced; the remainder have electric hookups.

The iconic ruins of Wheal Coates tin mine — familiar from the TV series Poldark — stand just a short walk away on the Southwest Coast Path, and a footpath leads to the beach roughly 800 metres from the site. The area earned a Dark Sky award in 2014.

The Sawle family have run the farm and campsite for several generations, and two traditional Cornish holiday cottages are also available to rent on the property.
