  • Small motorhome park next to woodland on the Cornish coast
  • Perranporth and Portreath beaches within a 15-minute drive
  • Chapel Porth beach and South West Coast Path 15 minutes' walk away
Heading to Cornwall in search of coast views and a peaceful place to relax? You’ve hit the jackpot on both fronts at Chapel Porth Motorhome Park – this small seaside site has just a handful of pitches so it's a lovely option for quiet family breaks. If the name rings a bell, that’s because it’s named after Chapel Porth beach, a gorgeous National Trust-maintained stretch of sand about half a mile away. That location means you can walk down to the beach in about 15 minutes (it’s particularly lovely at sunset), or easily pick up the South West Coast Path to explore more of this part of the coast. Porthtowan beach, Wheal Coates tin mine and St Agnes Head are all easily walkable – or you could hike over to Perranporth or Portreath if you’re feeling a little more energetic. Back at base, you’ll be staying at a spacious hardstanding pitch with water and electric hook-up and access to a chemical disposal point and motorhome service area. Tucked away next to a thriving woodland, it’s a peaceful spot where you may catch glimpses of deer, squirrels and birds as you wander. Need picnic supplies for your evening on the beach? There are supermarkets 20 minutes’ drive away in Redruth or smaller shops in St Agnes (five minutes’ drive/half an hour’s walk), which also has several pubs and other places to eat.

What customers say

This peaceful campsite offers a natural setting with wildlife, conveniently located near stunning beaches and coastal walks. Visitors praise the friendly and helpful owner, Rob, and appreciate the good base for touring, with electric hook-up and water readily available. While some found the access road narrow and the site basic with no shower/toilet facilities, others noted it as uncomplicated and quiet. The nearby crows' roosting was an observed natural phenomenon.

Electric optional hardstanding and grass motorhome pitch

Liked Great location for beach access and coastal walks. Decent space between units with room to manoeuvre. Close electric hook up so no long leads in the way, with tapwater close by too.
Good communication with the owners who accommodated our late arrival.

Disliked I can't say I disliked anything. There are very minor things like I was blocking the road whilst opening the gate, my pitch wasn't completely level( but ramps sorted that), there were children next door ( well behaved) but it does say adults only, which might put some people off.

Electric optional hardstanding and grass motorhome pitch

Liked Nice and peaceful campsite. Very friendly owners who tried to make our stay as pleasant as possible. We had access to a tap from the pitch and a bin.
Lovely walks nearby over the headlands and down to the beach. We hope to return.

Disliked The walk up the hill from the beach!

Electric optional hardstanding and grass motorhome pitch

Liked the beach was only 15 minutes walk and amasing location. It was quiet and uncomplicated. Also Rob the owner was very friendly

Disliked The road twoards it, is a bit small, but there are many sideareas to let other cars pass and everone was very friendly.
The space itself was quite bare and would improve with some plants or a seating area or something nice.

Great if you are ok with no shower/toilet facilities.

Electric optional hardstanding and grass motorhome pitch

Liked Great walking trails from the site, only 10 minutes down to the beach.
Flat, level pitch with water and ehu and a very natural grass area. Has a chemical waste disposal and general waste bin.
Saw rabbits, foxes, robins, insects and butterflies.
Friendly, helpful site owner Rob.

Disliked Not a dislike but to be aware of, there is a group of pine trees next to the site where a murder of crows were roosting and they were quite noisy but that's nature and once you got used to it they were very interesting to observe.

Local attractions

You’ll have your pick of coastal spots to visit around here – starting, of course, with Chapel Porth beach (15 minutes’ walk), which has a fabulous three miles of golden sand at low tide. Meander along the South West Coast Path after that and you’ll be able to spot historical relics such as Wheal Coates tin mine and other remnants of Cornwall’s industrial past. A few other choice coastal locations to visit nearby include Trevaunance Cove (10 minutes’ drive), Perranporth beach (15 minutes) and the surf hotspot of Portreath beach (15 minutes). A walk along the coast path brings lots of scenic views, and potentially also the chance to spot marine life including dolphins or whales. Away from all the coastal attractions, you may like to learn about the area’s past at Cornwall Gold (15 minutes) and National Trust - East Pool Mine (20 minutes), wander around Truro (25 minutes) or have a more grownup day out with a trip to Healeys Cornish Cyder Farm (15 minutes).
