Just wondering if anyone has a favourite quiet-ish campsite (preferably as near a beach as possible) anywhere in cornwall? Not just posting this through sheer laziness (!): have had a look through the campsite directory and would prefer a less family-orientated site - most of those listed and reviewed seem to be aimed at families with kids. Not esp worried about facilities (basic is fine!) - as very recent ex-students price is probably our main concern..!

Any recommendations/suggestions/advice for newbie campers gratefully received! Thanks!

One of my faves is a tiny site near to Praa Sands (5 minutes walk down a lane and past the pub then a fab and beautiful beach).

Its called Lower Pentreath. only 15 pitches and 3 statics. immac clean shower/loo block although small. Chem disp point. Ice block frezing service. Sinks for wasjing up and one for laundry.  Beatiful tiny site. Very quiet. We have been the only ones there with kids when we have been in August. We're not going this year cos we're going on the UKCS meet instead. I'm sure my reveiw of it is one here - do a search under campsite to see. Cheap as well.

The owner are so friendly and helpful too. Cant recommend this site highly enough.

A quiet site can be found here:

Very well run, and the pitches are very well layed out.
