Why stay here ...
Anne and Rob Langley welcome you to Little Trenarrett.
5 well-drained grass pitches on a slightly sloping south-facing hillside with extensive views of the Eastern edge of Bodmin Moor. We don't provide electric hookups. There is a toilet and washroom and a drive over grey waste disposal point.
Dogs are welcome with a dog exercising field adjacent to the CL.
Trenarrett is a small hamlet founded on an ancient settlement which at least predates Domesday. There are now just 4 houses and a brewery which produces a variety of excellent real ales which are available at the local pub. Visits may be possible on request.
The CL which opens at Easter is ideally located to access all of Cornwall and West Devon and both North and South coasts. It is only a couple of miles from the A30 so is very easily reached without too much Cornish lane negotiation.
The CL site is gently sloping, south facing and well drained. The panoramic views stretch right across the top of Bodmin Moor to the upper Tamar Valley and onward to Dartmoor. It is secluded and quiet. The pitches are grass with a hard driveway into the field. There is a toilet and chemical disposal point. There is a gated entrance to the site to ensure safety for children or animals. The driveway from the road is long enough to for a car and caravan to pull off the road safely to open the gate.
Footpaths radiate from the hamlet of Trenarrett making it an ideal location for walkers. This idyllic corner of Cornwall is a peaceful backwater to the more touristy destinations popular with the masses. Little Trenarrett CL opens at Easter and is ideally located to access all of Cornwall and West Devon and both North and South coasts. It is only a couple of miles from the A30 so is very easily reached without too much Cornish lane negotiation.
The nearby picturesque village of Altarnun has a monthly market and excellent weekly lunches each Thursday in the Church Hall. St Nonna's Church features in Daphne du Maurier's book "Jamaica Inn" and was the location for the wedding of TV's Doc Martin.

A truly wonderful gem of a CL
Little Trenarrett
This is a gem of a CL and what they should be all about, escaping and relaxing in tranquility in beautiful surroundings with stunning views. The pitches are spacious and everything is well laid out with great recycling facilities. The welcome from Rob and Anne was warm and informative. The pack we received on arrival was a fantastic touch. We have found ourselves on our own on a Bank holiday weekend and I’m surprised no one else has appeared!! Yes it is off grid, no electric but how much electric do we need at this time of year when we’re getting away from it all? For those that prefer not to use their on board loo there is a a facility with toilet and basin which is immaculately clean. Jams and marmalade can be purchased. There are greetings cards and other items for purchase with Anne’s prints from her paintings. Please, ditch the electric and give off grid a go. You will not be disappointed with this site and very well looked after.
We will be back ! PS make sure you follow their directions!!

Field With A View’
Beautiful grass site facing south towards breathtaking Bodmin Moor.
It is a quiet site with a light traffic on the road behind
Owner watercolour paints and you can purchase her card prints together with homemade jams, marmalade’s and jellies. At the gate is a few potted plants for sale also.
The owners were very welcoming and full of local knowledge and happy to share.
There is also an information pack of ‘what to do locally etc’ in the impressive little loo ‘shed’ which is rather quaint, exceptionally clean and large enough to have a wash up too if needed.
Dogs are accepted and in front of the site is a large dog walking field, which is great if you have a dog that enjoys just that, however the only downfall was the lack of public walking with dogs as most lovely local walks were over stiles. That’s okay if you have a little dog you can lift up and over safely, but not for our big Labrador, but apart from that we thoroughly enjoyed our two night stay and can highly recommend. It was also priced very reasonable. No hook up, we paid £10 a night in June.
For the twitchers out there we were lucky enough to see a Red Kite stalking it’s prey high in the sky with the backdrop of the Bodmin Moor in front of us.
We will definitely go back if in that area again.
Perfect quiet spot
Little Trenarrett
Everything is here for a relaxing stay. Owners are helpful and friendly, and the site is well-organised. Walks straight from the van. Dog-friendly, and extremely peaceful. Thoroughly recommended.
Wow this is a hidden gem. Not to be missed!!

Wow, this is a hidden gem. Not to be missed!!
Beautiful views across the valley. Access to an almost new toilet facility. The most peaceful and clean caravan site I have ever visited, Anne and Rob (the owners) could not have been more welcoming and organised.
Conveniently located for doing day visits to the beach and other attractions. We have stayed here three times and will visit again in the future.
Wow, wow, wow!
Little Trenarrett
I originally booked this site as it wasn’t too far into Cornwall and husband had always said that we would not be taking our 8m Motorhome into Cornwall, ever! Not far off the A30, you only have to drive a few miles down country lanes to reach this immaculate CL with amazing views. The site itself is level and well drained, there is a bathroom that was very clean although we didn’t need to use it and an added benefit of having a drive over grey waste disposal point for Motorhomes. Rob and Anne are so welcoming and friendly, they have made this CL very special, it is definitely on our list of top 10 favourite sites. There’s so much to see & do, within easy reach of both the North & South Coastlines of Cornwall. We explored all over on our scooter, across Bodmin Moor, stopping off at Jamaica Inn and then over to the coast at Tintagel, a beautiful place with amazing cliffs. So lovely to return to the Motorhome after a busy day just to sit with a glass of wine and admire the wonderful view in such peaceful surroundings. Sunday lunch at the nearby Rising Sun Inn was delicious as was Anne’s homemade strawberry jam. We will definitely return to this CL, I can highly recommend Little Trenarrett.
