We are now taking bookings for our new 1 acre south site. 8 pitches available with electric hook up. We have plenty of space, so you won’t feel crammed in.

Lizard View, a special place to relax and unwind…
Lizard View is a family run business in the parish of Wendron, in the heart of southwest Cornwall. Four miles from Helston, the quiet family-friendly site has stunning far reaching views over the Lizard Peninsula including the Goonhilly Earth Station.
We have 22 pitches with plenty of space in between. 8 pitches have electric hook-ups. We have a well serviced shower and loos and covered areas for washing up.
The site is set immediately next to the Wendron UNESCO World Heritage Site and there are still plenty of remnants of the mining days gone by which can be found by exploring the plentiful footpaths and bridleways. Cycling is popular in the area with many interconnecting lanes.
The house and land on which the site is built, has been occupied by five generations of the same family and who are very connected to the local community. It’s surrounded by farming land, and you are sure to see, and hear, a variety of farm animals during your stay. Foxes, badgers and rabbits are regular visitors but if you are very lucky, you might get to see an elusive deer or a snaffling hedgehog. Be sure to look up when night falls on a clear sky…. It’s mesmerizing and you may just see a satellite speed along!
If you are looking to dip your toes in the deep blue or walk some of our dramatic Cornish coastline, our central position offers easy access to several wonderful destinations. Our closest beach is in the harbour village of Porthleven a 20-minute drive but there plenty more within 30 minutes of the campsite to suit all tastes.
The Historic Helston Town, what you need to know and the places you should go…
The town of Helston is a short drive or bus ride away where you can find all the local amenities. The town is famed for its annual ‘Flora Day’ which is held each year on the 8th of May. Helston is also known as the ‘Gateway to the Lizard Peninsular’, where you can find beautiful beaches, wonderful walks, unique wildlife and fabulous Ice cream!
