About Pinetrees On The Lizard

Pinetrees On The Lizard is a small campground on a garden-like property with direct coastal access, set up for tents and campers. The pitches are dotted among exotic plants, and many offer views out to sea. It sits on the edge of the village, with a pub and several cafes within a minute's walk, plus coastal paths leading out from the site.

Facilities include hot showers and toilets kept to a high standard. The atmosphere is relaxed and unhurried, and the owners are known for being welcoming. Quirky and characterful rather than corporate, it works well for those wanting a peaceful base near the water without being tied to a caravan park structure.

Louise Fisher

Such a quirky,fun,unusual campsite! Really enjoyed our weekend stay. Beautiful pitches each unique with its own charm. The scent of all the flowers in bloom and a lovely secluded rocky cove a short walk away directly from the campsite was heavenly! Excellently maintained facilities with hot showers and clean loos. Really friendly staff/owners. 100% would recommend and will definitely be back.

What a beautiful little gem! I had such a lovely 3-night stay at Henry’s Campsite and honestly didn’t want to leave. There’s something so special about this place from the amazing plants and creative little details to the relaxed atmosphere and friendly animals wandering around. It feels more like a little community than just a campsite. Everything was so well looked after, the facilities were great, and the location is perfect for exploring the coast. Ron and his family are such a warm and welcoming people. A truly unique place with so much heart. I’ll definitely be returning next summer! 🫶🏼

By far the best campsite we have stayed in within the UK so far! The showers were exceptionally clean and played classical music (not that you could hear this from the actual camping area). The set up was amazing, with a cute handmade map - they had an animal area full of chickens, quials, goats, pigs, lamas, ducks. There were also ducks roaming around the site (which were safely put away at night). There is also a little shop on site with everything you could possible need whilst camping. The little town is only a few minutes walk with lovely eateries. We will definitely be staying here again! It's also super family friendly!

Very unique, creative and surrounded by nature. My favorite so far. Unfortunately we had to continue our trip. Otherwise I would have loved to stay longer. A lot of hiking path out of the door. Facilities are very clean and new. You have to pay the shower (40p for 3 min), but the temperature is adjustable and the pressure is great.
