About Us
Treen Farm Campsite is a small family-run site set 200 yards back from Treen Cliff and its fabulous
views of the Logan Rock, and within easy walking distance of two beautiful sandy beaches.
It has a reputation for being 'family-friendly' and frequently
commended by those who look for relaxation during the day and peace and
quiet at night.
Kevin and Gill have been running the site
since 2003, and
was previously run by Kevin's father and
his
father before him! Campers have been falling in love with the site and
it's perfect location since its inception - one couple in particular
have been regulars for the last 50 years.
The site, which takes
pride of place on the family farm was commandeered by the RAF and used
for a RADAR station during the 2nd World war. All of the buildings were
built by members of Her Majesty's armed forces - which is why they
still stand today!
The farm has been in the family for five generations and is now an
organic dairy farm, producing fresh un-pasteurised milk, yoghurt and
organic eggs, which can be purchased from the farm during your stay.
The site enjoys many 'unplugged' impromptu
musical evenings thanks to our talents of many of our visitors
throughout our season.
Dogs
Dogs are welcome (at no extra cost) provided they are properly supervised and exercised off-site.

Availability
The best advice
during the busy periods is to turn up early at reception in the village
from 8am. Saturdays and Sundays see most turnover of available pitches.
Our pitches are flexible and not marked. We try to ensure adequate space for comfort and safety between units.
Our first-come-first-served approach does not allow us to pre-book.
Although we welcome
general enquiries about the site, phoning through first will not secure a pitch.
We are open between April 1st and October, with the
busiest times coinciding with Whitsun week and the schools' summer holidays.
Pitch availability outside of these dates is generally at less of a premium.
Please note: Our license allows us only to cater for those who tour with tents and/or camper vans.
