Coronavirus
As of 21st March we have taken the decision, along with all other campsites and letting agents in the area, to close all our self catering properties and both campsites until at least the 4th July due to the government advice regarding non essential travel and safe distancing for everyone. Anyone who has a booking between now and then will be contacted .
Balance Payments
We would therefore advise people not to pay any balances by the usual 28 days prior to arrival, until it 100% confirmed we will be able to open for the dates your holiday covers.
Bookings for Summer 2020
We are hopeful that we may be able to open in-line with government guidelines from approx. 4th July. In order to do this we must first work out how we can keep everyone safe and at a social distance. This will inevitably mean fewer pitches than normal. Whilst we work out the best way to do this we are suspending any further bookings for July/August as we will need to re-allocate the many of hundreds of bookings we already have for this period.
Once we have a clearer idea of the way forward we will of course update the website and inform existing customers how it will affect them.
Thank you for your patience
Our number one priority is to keep the local residents and staff as safe as we can so we can all come back stronger and ready to welcome all our valued customers back to Cornwall when this crisis is over.
We strongly urge everyone to follow the government advice and not to visit Cornwall or indeed any other part of the UK at this time to help prevent this virus spreading.
Thank you all for your co-operation and see you all the other side. #staysafe #bekind

Tristram Campsite is positioned on the gently sloping and beautifully grassy cliff overlooking Polzeath Beach, the view really has to be seen to be believed. The site itself is fenced off from the beach path providing both privacy and safety, especially for children.
Our good friends at The Cracking Crab Cafe are handily situated next door to the campsite and they have a fully licensed bar. They offer a stunning menu for Breakfast, Lunch & Dinner.

Please Note: We are unable to Pre-Book for a 1 night stay, however the majority of the time we will be able to slot you in somewhere for an odd night on arrival. Please call the day before to check current availability.

The Cracking Crab Cafe
The latest addition to The Winking Prawn Group is the Cracking Crab in Polzeath, Cornwall. With a name like “The Cracking Crab” you can guess what we do? Crab and a lot of it! There’s seafood by the bucket load and juicy West Country steaks off the grill, so why not check out the menu? The bar is always fully stocked with chilled local beers, ciders and wine, perfect out on the sundeck soaking up the views.
We are so close to the beach you can practically feel the sand between your toes as you tuck in, and the breathtaking panoramic view of the beach and surf is equal to any. The Cracking Crab can be whatever you want it to be; fun for the whole family (including the dog), a hot spot for breakfast, a leisurely lunch watching the surf, a resting place for a cup of tea after a walk along the coast path or an awesome place to watch the sun setting over sundowners before supper.
Please book for dinner and keep an eye on seasonal opening times
