About Penventon House

Situated on the beautiful grounds surrounding Penventon House, this peaceful site welcomes tents and smaller campervans. Located in the village of Lanner, only 10 minutes from the central location of Redruth. It provides a quiet little getaway from the hustle and bustle yet enjoys easy access to Cornwall's popular attractions, including a glorious selection of beaches in striking distance from Penventon House. It's only 10 minutes to Porthtowan beach and only half an hour to St. Ives. Pitches are on grass and non-electric, perfect for all sizes of tents. The entrance gate on site is 2.5m wide, so tourers will need to ensure they are the appropriate size. A number of pitches are within an old orchard, and all are pet friendly. Families, couples and solo campers will all find this a handy base. Great facilities include a quirky, modern hot shower in a converted telephone box! There is also a tea house with a kettle, microwave, running cold water, and sockets to charge mobile phones in the garden. As a luxury extra - you can also head in the sauna (additional cost). In the evenings, gather around the communal campfire and admire the clear skies. BBQs and a fire pit are available for use.

Small Tent - Non Electric Grass PitchesMar 2024

We stayed for one night over the Easter weekend and had a lovely time. Very flat and sheltered orchard setting with amazing amenities. A lot of love and hard work has gone into making this a fantastic campsite - don't miss the phone box shower! We will definitely be back later this year. Thanks so much for a great camping experience despite the rain!

Lovely quiet place
