Quiet family-run park in the grounds of a north Cornwall hotel
A 15-minute drive to Port Isaac or the edge of Bodmin Moor
Outdoor swimming pool, games room and bar

Checking out spots to stay between the north Cornwall coast and Bodmin Moor? Then it might be time to check in at Lanarth Hotel and Caravan Park, a family-run site in St Kew Highway, just off the A39. This spacious park has 10 acres of peaceful gardens to relax in, plus nicely level plots that are easy to access (so no need to stress about squeezing down those pesky West Country lanes). You also get use of the hotel's well-maintained facilities, including a games room with pool tables, a cosy fully licensed bar and an open-air pool between late May and mid-September. Holidaymakers also have a purpose-built toilet and shower block a short walk away from the pitches. There's a pub that serves hot food, a Cornish pasty shop and a hairdresser's a short distance away in the village, while those who need to stock up on groceries have supermarkets in Wadebridge (10 minutes' drive), which is also a stop-off point on the gorgeous Camel Trail. Bringing a bike here (or hiring one in town) opens up 18 miles of almost totally traffic-free vistas, so make sure to earmark a day for some relaxed backcountry pedalling. After days of exploring, once back at base you could chill around a barbecue, order a nightcap at the bar or simply take advantage of the low levels of light pollution and gaze up at the night sky…

What customers say

Well-kept, tranquil camp with a lekker vibe. Owners are friendly. Lots of space on pitches, ablutions are spotless, and grounds are gorgeous, with peacocks strutting about. Pool and pub are winners. Great spot to explore Cornwall, with loads of beaches nearby. Just a heads-up, no grub on-site and the peacocks can get a bit vocal sometimes.

Summary AI-generated from Pitchup.com customer reviews

Not boxed in, flexible pitches surrounded by trees and bushes; private and peaceful

Electric optional grass tent pitch

Liked Initially booked for 5 nights, and extended for 4 more whilst there, and let me just say it’s one of the best camping spots we’ve been to so far. The owners, especially Steve who we’ve been dealing with mostly have been very welcoming and helpful, the campsite itself is very clean and pleasant. The bathrooms/showers get cleaned multiplie times a day, and there’s enough cubicles that there’s never any queues.
There’s a bar area, outdoor pool (clean), and even peacocks roaming around.
There’s an Asda express and a petrol station literally over the road, and a decently short drive to nearest attractions - Porth Beach was our favourite due to water being calmer than elsewhere.
Overall, a great spot we will surely be coming back to.

Disliked The one and only downside for someone who’s used to sitting by a camp fire every night, there is no fire pits allowed, which I think one communal camp fire pit (safely prepared) would’ve been an amazing addition and would bring all the campers together.
However, the owners allow portable barbecues, just need to ask for some bricks to put underneath not to scorch the grass.

Electric optional grass motorhome pitch

Liked It is a small family run business, very friendly and helpful. Choice of pitches on arrival, Motorhome pitches were great, spacious and very quiet. There are quite a few Peacocks and Peahens just roaming about that were very friendly and liked to visit, they provided lots of entertainment along with the resident cat, that was also super friendly.
The area itself is very peaceful. Positioned down a long drive, very safe for children.
Would definitely stay here again and would recommend to others.

Disliked There is nothing we disliked about this site. My daughter would have liked a playground

Local attractions

Almost opposite the site is Saint Kew Golf Course (two minutes' drive), a 4550-yard-long course with a driving range that welcomes both adult and junior players. (If your golf isn't up to much, there's also a farm shop and cosy café next door.) For other active jaunts, you could feel the wind in your hair by walking on the splendid South West Coast Path (15 minutes) or lope over rugged Bodmin Moor (15 minutes), perhaps venturing out to famed 18th-century smuggling haunt Jamaica Inn (30 minutes). For beaches, you could launch a trip to Newquay (30 minutes), where a mixture of sandy shores, surf culture and classic arcades pretty much guarantees good times all round. There's also an assortment of more low-key beach spots like Polzeath (20 minutes), Harlyn (25 minutes) and, if you fancy sampling the south coast, Lantic Bay (50 minutes). Inspired by the site's leafy layout? The Eden Project (30 minutes) and similarly world-class gardens like The Lost Gardens Heligan (45 minutes) are within easy reach. Finally, there's potential for day trips full of Arthurian heritage at Tintagel Castle (30 minutes).
