Noon Cregg CIC has now relocated to Camelford, North Cornwall with stunning views over Bodmin Moor and just a stones throw from Trebarwith Strand, Boscastle, and Tintagel. With much to do, including the amazing rugged coastline, Brown Willy and Rough Tor on our doorstep. This part of the Cornish coast is steeped in history. St Nectans Glen, the famous waterfall said to be the place where King Arthur and Gwenevere got married. Rocky Valley an ancient walkway down to a Rocky Cove on the North Cornwall Shore. Delabole, the world renowned slate quarry. Ancient chapels and much more.
Whatever your service, or however long you served.
Noon Cregg offers a peaceful retreat and plenty for you to do to help you readjust.
I stayed at Noon Cregg, a few times. It was a wonderful experience. I met several veterans from all services. My father was in the Parachute regiment in the Second World War. This is such a wonderful place, and a very much needed establishment.

Noon Cregg saved my life. I was at rock bottom. I called out, and Badger answered my call when others didn’t. Thanks Badger for being my Rock.

I wasn’t in a good place. Every door I tried for help was closed in my face. Until I was referred to Noon Cregg. Badger heard of my situation, and came straight out to pick me up, and brought me back to the retreat. If it wasn’t for Badger. I don’t know where I’d be. Probably dead.

This man got me the help I needed, I was in a rut I couldn’t get out of. Without Badgers help. Heaven knows where I’d be now.

I was on the edge of a cliff. Ready to end it all. Badger was called out, and I’m glad he was. He took me back to his retreat, and gave me the space I needed. He introduced me to like minded people and I realised that I wasn’t alone. Thanks Badger.

I was in a rite mess. Didn’t know where to turn. A friend put me on to Badgers at Noon Cregg Veterans Retreat. He turned my life around and put me on the rite track.

Iv been here twice now with my daughter. We had a great time camping by the orchard. We done leather craft, and my girl made a lovely leather purse.
Looking forward to camping ther again.

I was gutted to hear what happened to Noon Cregg, and how Badger was treated in court. How can this system that veterans like Badger, who served to protect, allow such atrocities to a so needed establishment.
The love of money is a root of evil!
I walked the streets for ten years trying to find myself after Afghanistan. I new my family wouldn’t recognise me, because I no longer recognised myself after what I saw, and done there. It was totally by accident I stumbled across Noon Cregg, and Badger. And if I hadn’t I’d still be roaming these streets looking for answers.

Thanks for taking me in Badger., and again for helping me get the help I needed.
Bob. Scaly back. ‘Sigs.’
Thanks again Badger for taking me into your retreat. I will get there one day. You’ve planted a seed.

We are currently looking for a new location in order to carry out our work with fellow veterans. Our time at Tsalta, Porkellis has come to a premature end. But we are grateful for the time we had here and the lives we changed whilst here. We wish the landlady all the very best for her future. Wherever we settle it will be in Cornwall. This part of the world boasts plenty to see and do whilst also enjoying the peace and quiet of nature. From surfing and snorkelling with Badger who is a local legend, to fishing or hiking, there’s something for everyone. Somewhere to lose yourself from the ties of the cities and towns. Somewhere to reconnect and find one’s self again.
“I was visiting the Merry Maidens when I met Badger as he was placing apples on each stone for the weary traveller. He invited me to Noon Cregg for a delicious breakfast cooked outside on the fire and we have been friends ever since. He’s a wonderfully sensitive person and Noon Cregg is a magical place.”
