About the site
Located a 20 minute walk from the beautiful Porthtowan Beach, this site is ideal for a seaside getaway. For days out, it is only 20 minutes from Truro, Perranporth and the National Trust - Godrevy! All pitches are spread across three level fields with modern facilities, including a wetsuit rinse area. Opt for old school camping with non-electric grass pitches or grass pitches with 10 amp electric hookups, suitable for all types of tents and tourers. There are also premium hardstanding pitches for tourers only, complete with your water and waste point. With an on-site games room and adventure play area, a tourist information office for exciting attractions nearby, and an on-site shop for all the essentials - the site has all you need! During the off-peak months, a set of pitches are designated as adult-only and are the most tranquil in the park. Dogs are welcome.
