About The View at Watergate Bay

Perched above one of Cornwall's most celebrated surf beaches, The View at Watergate Bay delivers exactly what its name promises – along with spotless facilities and a genuinely welcoming atmosphere. Pitches come with electric hook-ups and are kept impressively clean, while the shower blocks (including accessible options) earn consistent praise. The on-site café and bar serve reasonably priced food, and there's a swimming pool for days when the Atlantic feels too bracing.

Staff here are notably helpful, and the whole site maintains a peaceful vibe despite being family-friendly and dog-welcoming. It's an excellent base for exploring Cornwall's north coast, though you're paying partly for that proximity to Watergate Bay – prices reflect the prime location. Still, with beautiful views and well-maintained grounds throughout, it's easy to see why guests return.

We have come back from a five night stay at the view, what a great small campsite. Staff were friendly and approachable, the facilities were clean and well maintained, great on site shop, cafe and bar, The views and weather were a well added bonus, Will be stopping again soon

Perfect spot for camping near Watergate and very affordable. Only thing holding off the 5 star is the decision to have a street lamp in the middle of the camping pitches that stays on all night?! Like many others I go camping to get out of urban areas and with such beautiful coastline, sunsets and stargazing opportunities from North Cornwall it was so frustrating to feel like I was camping under a sports pitch floodlight.

A Plain and simple Campsite as it says on the Tin with nice big Clean Pitches with Ehu and some with water points and an elson point a Shop a toilet block with Showers that are Spotless and a Disabled shower that i used being as i'm disabled and with a Wall mounted Stool and a Chair it also has a Bath but i would struggle with using it there is also a laundry room and outdoor tables next to the bar also a Shop at the entrance and a dog walking area and while we are on about walking its a 15 minute walk to Watergate Bay which has Cafe's shops and a big Beach so all in all a little peach of a stopover we did 3 nights for £102 with ehu
