  • CAMC members-only site at a handy mid-Cornwall location
  • Newquay beaches and the Eden Project within half an hour's drive
  • Two miles from the A30; easy vehicle access through a wide gate
If you’re planning to see as much of Cornwall as you can during your break, it stands to reason that a location right in the middle of the county is a very handy place to be – especially if you can manage to be close to an A road at the same time. And that’s exactly what you’ll get when you pick a pitch at Mid Cornwall Camping Certified Location… this site is about five minutes’ drive from the A30 at Indian Queens and pretty much equidistant between the north and south coasts. It’s a location that puts you within easy reach of all sorts of Cornwall attractions, including beaches, historic sites and major attractions like the Eden Project and Lost Gardens of Heligan (all within a half-hour drive). This is a small site that’s reserved for Caravan and Motorhome Club members only, so it’s usually a pretty peaceful place where you’ll be among like-minded guests. Pitches have been set up specifically with tourers in mind, so they’re solid and well-spaced with all the essential amenities (including water and electric connections) provided. No worries about getting your vehicle into place, either – the gateway into the site is more than 8 metres wide for easy manoeuvres. Kids and dogs are welcome at this site, and the latter will be able to run around safely at the fenced dog run area. Barbecues and campfires are permitted, with picnic tables provided and supplies available at several nearby shops or in St Austell (20 minutes’ drive). A pub with food is two miles away in St Dennis.

Liked: Location, perfect for everywhere we wanted to visit and have a restful weekend away. Helpful staff that visited us to make sure we were OK and settled in. Dogs loved the enclosed dog walking field where we could let them off for a run. Will definitely visit again.

Fully-serviced hardstanding and grass touring pitch (members only)

Liked: Its exactly as described and exactly what we expected. Some of the reviews mention the noise from the lorries and yes its next to a main road near the quarries but it didn't disturb us. For us it was a site to use as a central location to visit things in the general area so we only needed somewhere to sleep.

The pitches are nice and level and the water pressure was great as we filled out tanks in no time.

Liked: We absolutely loved this site and the family that run it.
For us we like to use our own facilities and to have everything on your pitch was amazing.
The whole campsite is so clean and just lovely. The pitches are massive. The dog run area is just great, it sits in front of all the pitches so you can see when it’s free. We have two young boys and there is space for them to play and not have to worry about losing them. It’s so easy to get around Cornwall from here as it’s not far from the A30. We will definitely be back.

Fully-serviced hardstanding and grass touring pitch (members only)

Liked: This site was so lovely.
It is excellently located for many beaches and attractions. The price with a complete hook up is so affordable, we looked at many sites and this was a fraction of the price.
I can’t thank Shane and Ross enough, they were brilliant. They checked in everyday to make sure we were happy with everything. When we had high winds, Shane parked his van in front of our awning to block the wind, he also left it there for the duration of our stay to protect the awning from getting damaged or blown away.
We will be booking for next year when we know what weeks we want. Highly recommend.
