About St Gabriel's Campsite Golden Cap

A simple campsite set in a spectacular setting on the Golden Cap estate.

The two camping fields are a haven for wildlife and have views of the majestic Golden Cap and the sea. 

St Gabriel's Campsite is a great choice for those looking for a camping experience with a difference. You won't find swimming pools, organised entertainment or even a shower block here but what you will get is a peaceful retreat and all the fresh air and nature you could wish for.

St Gabriel's camping 

The five-acre, partly sloping campsite is a wildlife-rich haymeadow which makes it a haven for nature lovers but also limits the facilities we can provide.

Notes for guests

    Customers: In order to stay at the site you need to be a National Trust member or Caravan and Camping Club member. 

    Facilities: There are no toilets or showers so you'll need to bring your own toilet facilities (this is a stipulation of the National Trust). There is a chemical disposal point and fresh running water available on site.

    Restricted numbers: The site is a SSSI site (Site of Special Scientific Interest) and therefore pitches are limited. 

    Phones: depending on your network, mobile phone signal can be patchy or even non existent at this very rural site, which might be a concern for solo campers.

    Access: Due to the narrow access route only smaller caravans will be able to use the site.

    Fires: Camp fires of any type are not permitted.

About the Acorn rating

Back to top

We have applied a 1-5 acorn rating to each cottage to be used only as a guide that covers location, style of interior and facilities you may be looking for. The range runs from 1 Acorn at a more basic level such as Bird How which due to its stunning yet remote location doesn’t have a caretaker through to 5 Acorns at the highest level – such as Shute Barton.

Cottage pricing is not judged on the Acorn rating alone and as all our cottages are of an individual nature we recommend that all factors are considered when making your choice.
