About Dropped Anchor Sea View Camping
Perched above the Cornish coast near Breage, Dropped Anchor Sea View Camping delivers exactly what its name promises: sweeping sea views from spacious pitches that each come with their own picnic bench and fire pit. The facilities are kept immaculately clean, with hot showers that guests consistently praise, while the peaceful atmosphere makes it ideal for switching off completely.

With nineteen pitches split between standard grass plots and backpacker spots, plus a dog-friendly policy, it attracts a relaxed crowd who appreciate the simplicity – though don't expect WiFi.

What visitors say
We stayed at Dropped Anchor Sea View Campsite during the May half-term and had a wonderful stay. The campsite is in a beautiful location with stunning sea views, and the site itself is clean, peaceful and very well maintained. The facilities were excellent and everything was looked after to a high standard. A special mention must go to Debbie, who was incredibly friendly and welcoming throughout our stay. She was always happy to help and really made us feel at home. It’s clear she cares a great deal about the campsite and her guests. The atmosphere was relaxed and friendly, and the location was perfect for exploring Cornwall. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and wouldn’t hesitate to return. Highly recommended!

Debbie, my lord and saviour Honestly this is the loveliest campsite I have ever stayed at?? Incredible views, private bathrooms and showers not stalls in a shared place, and there were even plates and stuff for if you'd forgotten something??? And an incredible view + beautiful walks to the beach. 100000000/10.
