+ 6 photos

Dog friendly touring and camping in very easy reach of the gorgeous beach at Pentewan, with a heated pool that you can dip into and a great pub close to site.

About River Valley Holiday Park

Ideally placed by the River Wendick, this park is just a 10 minute drive from the beach, where you can join the South West Coast Path, and the same distance from plenty of amenities in St Austell. Owned and run by a Cornish family, this is the right park to come to for local advice and tips. There are a total of 45 pitches, both standard and large, welcoming campers and tourers with a set of immaculate facilities. They are spacious and level, with electric hook-ups. These well manicured pitches include lawns and hardstanding to suit all weathers. Looking for a home from home? You can hire one of 40 holiday caravans sleeping between four and six guests inside with a spacious and modern interior.

Open from 28 April to 8 October

Mevagissey is only 10 minutes from your base and is one of the county's prettiest fishing harbours, a place to wander little shops and get to know the slower Cornish pace of life.

Another stellar attraction, the Eden Project, is only 15 minutes away and makes for an unmissable and unique day out.

  • Fowey - 15 minutes away
  • Truro - 30 minutes away
