Porthtowan Tourist Park is a 6 acre touring site spread over three level fields making it ideal for motorhomes as well as tents and caravans. Surrounded by farmland, we offer our visitors the opportunity to relax in beautiful peaceful countryside or walk the nearby South West Coast path and Mineral Trail.

We are one mile from Porthtowan beach, which has achieved Blue Flag status for a number of years and is one of the most spectacular beaches on the North Cornwall coast. Well known for its surf and surf school, it is also family friendly with a large expanse of sand and plenty of rock pools and caves to explore.

As a base for visiting Cornwall there is plenty to do in the area with a variety of beaches, gardens and attractions within easy reach and only eight miles from the cathedral city of Truro.

Incredible!

Rutherford - Rowland, Jill & Adam ( 20s ) - 26/04/2025

Porthtowan tourist park is absolutely amazing! The staff are incredibly kind and helpful. The site itself is extremely well looked after and clean. The toilets/showers are the cleanest I've ever seen. The shop is well stocked and they also do crepes, teas, coffees and milkshakes! My son tried a milkshake and he said it was the best he'd ever had! My husband is very picky with which tea he drink and he agreed that the tea was amazing! The site is very very close to the beach, which is very handy for my son who loves to body board.We can't wait to come again!Thank you so much porthtowan tourist park

Struggling to find anything that needs improvement

Austin-Goldsmith, Chris & Pauline ( 80t ) - 21/04/2025

The first impression for us was the warm, friendly welcome we received. After a very long and challenging drive, Angie read the situation immediately and her kindness, made me quite emotional. I really can’t think of how this site could be improved, every consideration has been thought of to make everyone’s stay relaxed and enjoyable. For us the location is perfect, 10 mins from large supermarkets and main A30, close to beaches and various pubs and restaurants are within easy reach. Andy and Angie are so helpful, friendly and accommodating, nothing is too much trouble for them, the pitches are very generous, the site is very thoughtfully laid out, amenities and equipment are high quality and good working order, and probably most importantly for all campers/caravaners, the toilet block is spotless, as is, all areas of the site.Would definitely recommend this site and can’t wait for our next stay

Well kept lovely site

Carter, Rachel - 08/10/2024

The site was very well maintained and the facilities were very clean and tidy every day. The staff were all very friendly. The location was great, a short drive into Porthtowan (great beach and Blue Bar was fab!)) and not far to supermarkets either. The super service pitch was great and easy to set up on the hardstanding pitch, lots of room too.The only recommendation would be to add lighting and hand washing facilities to the chemical toilet waste area if possible. We had a great stay- thank you :)

Idilc retreat

Partridge, Christopher - 26/09/2024

The moment we arived and had contact, it was clear that this was a friendly and personal site. We were greeted with a great deal of warmth, which instantly makes you feel very welcome. Looking on from the main entrance and driving to our pitch, we were able to see the well kept grounds, with pretty foliage. On the whole the site is not on a large scale but its clear that a lot of thought has gone into the site layout because it is still capable of accommadating a large number of guests but without being on top of eachother.The facilities were spot on with everything we have come to expect from a site and im pleased to say, extremely clean and tidy which encourages guests to be the same!The site was equiped with both indoor games room and external play area for children. We found the site to be perfect for us with our young family and we would not hesitate in booking a future stay, or recomending the site.

This was the second stay this year and both stays were perfect. The bathroom facilities are the best we have experienced . I appreciate the fact that it's NOT a fixed shower head 😄. The site was immaculate and the owners were very welcoming.
