  • CAMC members-only touring pitches west of Dartmoor National Park
  • Callington 10 minutes’ drive; Plymouth 35 minutes
  • Dogs welcome; a 10-minute drive from Tamar Valley’s riverside trails
Both East Cornwall and Dartmoor National Park are yours to explore from South View Certificated Location, a peaceful, family-friendly site that welcomes members of the Caravan and Motorhome Club. Simply drive up to your pitch on the splendidly maintained touring field (surrounded by high hedges), and start your Cornish holiday. Where will your first hike take you? Perhaps along the forested trails of the Danescombe Valley (less than one kilometre away). Or maybe into the Tamar Valley Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (10 minutes’ drive), where your dog might take pleasure at jumping in and out of the river or at scrambling up Kit Hill (20 minutes), from the top of which you can see as far as Dartmoor on a clear day. The area was renowned during the Industrial Revolution for its deposits of tin, so there are also heaps of historic mining sites to check out, such as Morwellham Quay. Hard-core hikers might want to have a go at a section of the 87-kilometre Tamara Trail, which takes you from the south to the north coast of Cornwall. Speaking of coast… the nearest beaches (Tregantle, Freathy and Downderry) are a 40-minute drive away, but there is also Dandy Hole (35 minutes), a small beach on the Lynher River that’s a popular spot for yachting, canoeing and other watersports. After a day of local exploration, you might well be hungry. Stock up on anything you need in Callington (10 minutes), get the barbecue going and devour your meal under a sky filled with stars.

Powered concrete and grass caravan site (members only)

Liked The location is quiet and private
There are toilets and a shower block
Abundance of wildlife: bats, owls and other birds.
The owners are nice people.

Disliked You are next to a caravan storage yard, but that doesn’t detract from the experience.

Local attractions

At the Tamar Valley Donkey Park (five minutes’ drive, or a 15-minute walk), residents also include pygmy goats and Shetland ponies. The kids get to meet, feed and pet the animals (if they like, they can also groom a donkey), and there’s an indoor adventure play area with climbing structures and tunnels. National Trust - Cotehele (five minutes) is a Tudor house on a hill overlooking a bend in the River Tamar. The interior features period tapestries and furniture, while the gardens include apple and cherry orchards; colourful floral terraces from where you can see the Calstock Viaduct; and a pond inhabited by frogs. There’s loads to see in Plymouth (35 minutes) – from the historic port area, with the Mayflower Steps Memorial honouring the Pilgrim Fathers that set off from here to the New World, to waterfront Hoe Park, a clifftop green with a lighthouse and an Art Deco swimming pool.
