About Mount Douglas Farm Campsite
Mount Douglas Farm Campsite makes an excellent base just outside Carbis Bay, combining generous pitch sizes with genuinely well-kept facilities. The showers stay hot, the toilet blocks are spotlessly maintained, and those little extras – fridges, freezers, washing machines – mean you're not roughing it more than you want to. Staff here have earned their reputation for being helpful without hovering, and the atmosphere remains peacefully low-key even in high season.
With 40 electric and 15 non-electric grass pitches, dogs welcome, and campfires allowed, it's the sort of straightforward, properly run site that wins people over through doing the basics exceptionally well. Perfect if you're planning to explore Cornwall's coves and moors by day, then return somewhere reliably comfortable at night.

What visitors say
This is a lovely, secluded campsite with excellent facilities and so close to St Ives. Zoe, and the rest of the staff, are really friendly and helpful and we really enjoyed our stay here. I would really recommend this campsite.

A lovely campsite in a quiet location with a good view of countryside below. The pitches are generous in size and clearly defined. The facilities were spotless and there was always hot water and showers. The staff are relaxed, friendly, and helpful. The beach is a mile away and it's worth walking up Trencrom Hill where you can see both St.Ives Bay and St Michael's Mount. We would definitely stay again.

What a wonderful experience staying at Mount Douglas Farm was! Camping as it should be... a couple of well-kept open fields with hot showers, clean facilities and fire pits for the evening. Zoe, Phil and the team were great - very welcoming and cheery, nothing was too much trouble. Close to the bus stop to get into St Ives and also an easy walk along the coast path to dog-friendly Porthkidney beach and The Badger pub in Lelant, with a couple of lovely restaurants in easy walking distance as well. We will certainly be returning!
