  • An adults-only site with scenic views and good transport connections
  • A 20-minute drive to Truro and 15 to Cornwall’s north coast beaches
  • Shop and dog-walking field on site; pub and bakery a 20-minute walk
Peace, quiet and not a child in sight… welcome to adults-only Chacewater Park in Cornwall, set in 11 acres of neatly kept tree- and hedgerow-lined grounds to make up a green and serene site. This is a preferred spot of many a dog owner and nature fan too, with a separate five-acre field that's home to rabbits and wildflowers. For human-centred entertainment, amble over to the local village, a 20-minute walk away, to sip pints in the pub, have a go at bowls or take part in one of the monthly quizzes. Both Truro and National Trust’s Trelissick Gardens are within 20 minutes' drive: time your visit to the latter just right to take in a traditional cream tea too… Back at the park, amenities include two separate shower blocks with shaving points and hairdryers, as well as two laundry areas. Fancy resting with a novel? Swap your last pageturner for your next at the book exchange and settle on the grass for a read. For all-essential eats, a bakery, chippy and convenience shop are close by, and supermarkets are less than 10 minutes' drive away in Redruth for a bigger stock-up.

Local attractions

Circled by farmland in the centre of west Cornwall, Chacewater Park is in the middle of England’s UNESCO-listed tin mining lands. If you’re coming to this Cornwall and West Devon Mining Landscape region by public transport, you can easily catch one of the regular bus services from Truro, Redruth, Penzance or St Ives. Driving? The park’s minutes from the A30, meaning the sandy, cliff-backed beaches on the county's north coast, like Portreath, Saint Agnes and Porthtowan, are reachable in no more than 15 minutes. Up for walking? Join the Mineral Tramways Coast to Coast Trail, running from Portreath to Devoran on the south coast, and follow in the footsteps of horse-drawn trams from days gone by. Low-key wanders can be had at Tehidy Country Park, a 15-minute drive to the north, in 250 acres of woodland and lakes with nine miles of trails. To up the pace a little, you can get in a round of golf on the course under 15 minutes' drive away – or ask the site’s friendly staff to help you organise a boat ride on the River Fal.
