Caravan Park Further Details

Lower Treave is a Four Star family camping and touring caravan site at the heart of the Lands End Peninsula amidst some of the most spectacular scenery in the UK. The site is easy to find, situated just two miles from the Blue Flag beach of Sennen Cove and within easy reach of all the delightful coves and beaches of West Cornwall. Heather-clad hills behind the site give views to the sea, and the chance to see some of the best sunsets in England. Beautifully maintained to show off the delights of the Cornish countryside, the site holds the prestigious David Bellamy Gold Award for conservation with mature trees and native hedging providing shelter to spacious tent, caravan and motorhome touring pitches, set on enclosed terraced levels, with views across the surrounding farmlands. All the usual facilities you would expect of a four star site are available, including electric hook-ups for touring units, a modern, well-equipped toilet block with free hot showers, and an on-site shop, which will supply your daily needs along with calor gas, camping gaz and a useful range of camping spares. A washing up area, free use of fridges and freezers and a small laundrette with modern washers, dryers and ironing facilities all help to make your stay comfortable and easy. The whole site has wi-fi internet access free to all laptop equipped guests, and an internet room available for those who need a PC at nominal charge. Five individually sited 28x10, 2 bedroom, static holiday caravans are also available for private hire. Each will accommodate 4/6 persons and the units are all modern and self-contained with their own shower and toilet facilities, full sized cooker, refrigerator, microwave oven and digital television/DVD. Lower Treave is happy to accept well-behaved dogs kept on a lead at all times and exercised off the site. Guides to local dog walks and dog-friendly beaches are available at the site.

Lower Treave is owned and run by the Bliss family. They have used their own camping experiences and listened to their customers over many years to try and create a friendly, comfortable and attractive site from which you can enjoy your holiday. The site was originally established in the late 1960s from a single, sloping field of about 5 Acres. Subsequent owners (there have been three) have each put their mark on the sites development including terracing, planting and landscaping. Four separate enclosures have been created using traditional and ornamental hedging which provide ‘wildlife corridors’ around the park and essential windbreaks and privacy screening for pitches. Certain areas are still allowed to grow ‘wild’, encouraging native species onto the park, whilst the main camping areas are well maintained grass. Features include one of the original, and now well established, Bellamy Butterfly Bars, recently introduced bird and owl boxes, and park lighting which is kept to a minimum to encourage stargazing. The site encourages recycling and runs a ‘blue bin’ scheme in conjunction with the local council and water butts collect roof run-off for the many container plants and formal beds.
