  • Peaceful Cornwall site with direct access to the South West Coast Path
  • Perranporth, Porthtowan Beach and Truro within 20 minutes' drive
  • Trevellas Cove and St Agnes village within walking distance
You can’t get much closer to Cornwall’s craggy north coast than at Blue Hills Touring Park: this friendly family-oriented site has direct access to the South West Coast Path and is just a few minutes’ walk from dog-friendly Trevellas Cove. Cornwall’s coast is obviously one of its great draws, but the region’s countryside is just as fine – and you’ll be able to admire some of that glorious scenery from the site too. The park sits within an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, with rural views from the pitches and plenty of footpaths nearby for walks (with a well-behaved dog at your heels if you wish). All of this adds up to a rather fabulous setting – but it doesn’t end there, since there’s also the fact that St Agnes village centre is a handy half-hour or so walk away for pubs, takeaways and shops where you can pick up supplies for a barbecue back at base. If it’s not barbecue weather, don’t panic – the site also has a well-equipped kitchen for guests to use. Other facilities on site include a laundry room, a covered washing-up area, chemical disposal and a smart modern bathroom block with accessible facilities. A play field gives space for kids to let off steam, and there’s also a wetsuit dip-and-hang area for those using the place as a base for surfing adventures.

Spitfire electric grass pitch (twin axle)

Liked: Warden met us on arrival and showed us to a level pitch - very friendly and advised well on local walks down to beach and to St Agnes beach. Very peaceful site mid September- showers/wc very clean Need to be mobile to get to beach and cliffs. No pub except over the cliff tops and back again. A good walk.

Liked: Site is very quiet, clean and pitches are lovely. People who work there are lovely always trying to help! Location is great beaches are beautiful ! One thing which was missing for me there is not much for kids to play which I think would be beneficial for the site also if open fire would be allowed this would be great other than that we have enjoyed the stay very much

Liked: Lovely camp site, on a smaller scale which meant it was nice and quiet. Great location for exploring the local area. Brilliant facilities. The wardens were extremely welcoming during our stay. Nice walk to the local beach along the south coast path.

Local attractions

If you’ve come to Cornwall for the beaches, you’ve got two good ones within a 15-minute drive. A vast expanse of sand backed by rocky cliffs, Perranporth Beach (five minutes) is home to the Tunes in the Dunes summer music festival. Porthtowan Beach (15 minutes), on the St Agnes Heritage Coast, is also sandy, with a number of rockpools to explore. Both are popular with surfers. For an insight into the history of the region, you can head to the cathedral city of Truro (20 minutes), where the Royal Cornwall Museum displays local artefacts, plus an eclectic collection ranging from minerals to Egyptian sarcophagi. A twice-weekly farmers’ market is the place to stock up on locally grown produce for the barbie back at the site. At the Eden Project (45 minutes), huge biome domes replicate different landscapes, from a Mediterranean garden to a rainforest. And there’s much more here than just recreated natural habitats, with a lively programme of cultural events, including the Eden Sessions music concerts.
