What an utterly beautiful place to go on holiday. Babybelle was equipped with everything you could possibly need. Outside there is a picnic bench and an outdoor kitchen with all the pots and pans and utensils. There is a fire pit with a grill over and my husband cooked us steak, potatoes and tomatoes. Yummy. We even had a nest of tables to go with the 4 seater dining table and chairs inside. The owners are absolutely lovely and we had a lovely chat with both of them. Lunar, the owners Collie is an absolute sweetheart and played with our dogs really nicely. We will definitely be back in September. So near to all Cornwall has to offer too. Thank you Emma and Steve ( and Lunar , of course) xxxx

I don’t know where to start with this place. I have so much to say - nothing includes anything negative. We spent 5 nights here, if you love a peaceful and adventurous glamping experience - this is the place to be! We stayed in the baby belle tent, other family stayed in the larger belle tent. Everything we needed was provided. From towels to bedding, to a fridge, cutlery, washing items, cooker, chairs, tables and many more. Everything was kept super clean. The little toilet and shower hut was also kept clean and was always stocked with loo roll and cleaning products. The owners made us feel so extremely welcome, a lovely friendly atmosphere. It was lovely to have our dog here as they have their very own named Luna! It is very close to plenty of local gorgeous beaches, pubs ! We will 100% be visiting again!

Really loved staying in one of Steve’s bell tents. Despite the bad weather, it was lovely to escape from the pressures of life and where possible, enjoy the scenery. The provided WiFi meant we weren’t totally off grid, but helped us pass the time in the evening. Lovely spacious area, good quality toilets and showers. We didn’t have towels when we first arrived as they aren’t usually provided for guests staying one night, but when we asked we got them. We walked down the lane and enjoyed the fish & chip shop that was recommended to us. If in the area again, we would love to return!
