On their way to hemmick beach

  • Roseland Peninsula site within walking distance of the beach
  • A 10-minute drive from The Lost Gardens of Heligan
  • Sea views, large play areas and coffee lounge on site
Just look at that beach… Seaview Gorran Haven Holiday Park is at the start of the Roseland Peninsula on Cornwall's south coast, surrounded by a patchwork of fields and the blue sea. It's a 20-minute stroll from spectacular sands at Hemmick Beach and in a stunningly scenic park with colourful flowers and views over the ocean and nearby Dodman Point The site is centrally set for heaps of attractions including the South West Coast Path, which is within walking distance, and the Lost Gardens of Heligan, 10 minutes' drive away. The rainforest biomes of the Eden Project is within half an hour's drive of the site. St Austell is the closest big town, about 20 minutes' drive away. As well as being in a prime spot near the coast, Seaview Gorran Haven Holiday Park has a play area with swings and slides, plus plenty of room for kids to run around at the park's big games areas. There is also a secure dog-walking area where pups can run free, and a coffee lounge in the Chapel reception area where you can grab a hot drink before a big day out. A heated outdoor pool is open during high season only (and subject to weather conditions).

What customers say

Loved for its roomy pitches, great facilities (showers/toilets), and heated pool. Kids enjoyed the play area and football pitch. Great base for beaches. A few found access roads tricky and some facilities a bit dated. No shop onsite.

Fully-serviced hardstanding and grass pitch

Liked Angie was great in the office, accommodating and helpful.
Site was generally very clean.

Disliked Toilets could be cleaned more regularly.
Some people clearly use the site to let their teenagers just shout and scream until late and let them get on with it without consideration for other people.

Non-electric grass campervan, tent or trailer tent pitch

Liked The park and the large playing field great fun for kids. The pool was lovely too. Shame there was no bar/restaurant, I didn’t realise the area with seating in the photos was just a ‘coffee lounge’.

Disliked The toilets were repugnant. I can only think those are who recommend this campsite didn’t need to use them? They weren’t cleans anywhere near enough and looked and smelled terrible. We cannot go back on the basis of how awful they were, which is a shame as the area around this campsite is lovely with lots of things to do!

Fully-serviced hardstanding and grass pitch

Liked The pool was a big hit with the kids, and we loved how clean and well-maintained the entire site was. The toilets and showers were spotless and cleaned daily, which made our stay so much more comfortable.

The campsite had a peaceful atmosphere—it was fairly quiet, just what we needed for a relaxing getaway. Plus, being close to a lovely beach was a huge bonus! We’d definitely recommend this place to families and anyone looking for a tidy, well-kept campsite in a great location.

Disliked This isn't the campsites fault:

Having booked through pitchup.com we booked a hard standing and grass pitch as these were the only ones with electricity. We appreciated that the pitches would vary in size, however,the pitch we were allocated was relatively small and nearly entirely hardstanding, as we were in a tent we had to pitch in front of the allocated spot to be able to put the tent pegs in. It was just unfortunate as some of the larger grass and hardstanding pitches we would have been able to fit on the grass.....other tent users near us were in the same boat.

The entirely grass pitches for tents had no electric which is why we avoided.....I would recommend they install electric on their all grass pitches too. I suspect most visitors to the site are caravan/motorhomes? As any other campsite we have been to people in tents still want electric.

Non-electric grass campervan, tent or trailer tent pitch

Liked Lovely location, some parts of the site had a seaview.
Beautiful outside pool and use of the lounge where you can buy hot drinks, cold drinks and snacks.
Clean toilets and showers.
Secure little dog run to let dogs off lead.
Lovely park and football field for the kids.
All the staff were lovely from start to finish.
When we arrived we were not completely happy with our allocated pitch which was not suitable for our campervan and awning, very lumpy and bumpy! They were happy to switch us to a lovely level pitch.
Nice walk down a country lane to the beach! Little bit tougher on the way back up!!!

Disliked Although clean and tidy the showers were not really warm enough. Only had one decent warm shower over my week’s stay. Wouldn’t be suitable for tiny children in my view. My daughter is nine and could just about stand them as they varied from luke warm to cold.
Unfortunately no site shop, they could benefit selling a few staples in the lounge?

Liked Really lovely site, the staff were great. We arrive very late and someone was onsite to greet us and show us where the amenities are. Dog friendly with a nice open space for the dogs to have a run. Lovely off road walk down tot he beach. Great pool which was clean and well maintained. Hard standing pitches were a good size

Route directions

From St Austell, take the B3273 towards Mevagissey for approximately three miles, at the top of the steep hill, turn right signposted to The Lost Gardens of Heligan and Seaview International. Follow this road and turn for the yellow Seaview Lodges sign. If you are using a GPS or satnav device then do not carry straight on at the top of the hill as this will take you into the centre of Mevagissey where the streets are extremely narrow and often blocked. Please turn right at the top.

Local attractions

Seaview is close to the South West Coast Path – and sands – of Restormel, a top spot for cyclists and walkers, and among the coves, safe clean beaches and jaw-droppingly scenic coast of the Roseland Peninsula. St Mawes (35 minutes) and St Just (an hour and 20 minutes) are both within easy reach; access sailing, fishing boat hire and kayaking nearby at Mevagissey (15 minutes). You could also take a boat trip along the Fal from Falmouth (55 minutes), pedal the Clay Trail for five miles from the Eden Project (half an hour) to Wheal Martyn, or venture determinedly forth for Cornwall's old castles and buildings, including the Caerhays Castle (five minutes) manor house. Kids will surely like the Shipwreck Treasure Museum (20 minutes), within a short drive at the port of Charlestown, and Flambards Theme Park (an hour) and the Crealy Theme Park & Resort (an hour and 45 minutes). A football golf centre, indoor soft play and the Wingz bird and animal sanctuary are all a few minutes' drive from St Austell. Regattas, carnivals and festivals run throughout Cornwall all year round; ask the Seaview team when you arrive what's going on locally.
