The owners house is centrally located and provides for a comfortable 4 bed family home and grounds.
Site Development & Established Business:
The site has undergone extensive development, including the creation of luxury safari tent pitches with en-suite facilities and private hot tubs, Oak View Lodge, bell tent accommodation, and touring and camping pitches with electric hook-ups and water supplies. Further improvements include modern shower and toilet facilities, a licensed café/bar, site shop, landscaping, fencing and supporting infrastructure.
The business benefits from multiple income streams, an established customer base and over 50% repeat business. Trading takes place throughout the year, providing a year-round income rather than relying solely on seasonal demand.
Future Development Potential / Planning:
The site benefits from existing planning permission for five additional glamping units within the current dog walking field, offering an excellent opportunity to expand the accommodation offering and increase revenue, particularly during the main holiday season.

Truro is just under 6 miles and there is considerable positive growth in the area that will benefits the site in the longer term, one of which has been the addition of a cycleway between Truro and St Agnes, which passes the entrance. With the majority of guests seeking an accessible inland location in order to explore the county, the location is a key driver and underlines the c50% repeat bookings the site enjoys. The nearest coastal locations of St Agnes and Perranporth offer the best of contrasting Cornish coastal style, with the charm and rugged outlook of St Agnes at Trevaunance Cove to the long golden sands of Perranporth. Whilst these beaches are within a very short distance, both North and South beaches are easily reached from the site.
