Campsite overview

Close to Bodmin Moor, this secluded, beguiling little site is humming with wildlife. Cornwall isn't all about sun, sand and surfing. What about rabbits, woodpeckers,squirrels and trees. Woody green Ruthern feels a million miles from the bustling Cornish coast, but actually its only a short drive.

Great activities / places of interest within walking distance

The Camel Cycle trail is a 4 minute level ride away(1.5km)
Lots of walking in the local forestry.

Great activities / places of interest a little further afield

Surfing at Polzeath, Watergate Bay and Harlyn.
Tree surfing!
Eden Project 20 minutes drive.
