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.

Immaculate

Taylor, Mike - 23/07/2025

We visit quite a few campsites and this is definitely one of the best. Absolutely immaculate throughout. Staff very friendly with enough rules to keep it enjoyable but never feeling overbearing. Location is excellent if you enjoy a short hill walk into the village, otherwise a 2 min drive. Porthtowan itself is lovely my only wish was that the beach was dog friendly before 6pm but still wouldn't prevent me returning. Overall 10 out of 10 for this site.

Excellent campsite

Keisel, Sarita - 22/07/2025

What an absolute gem. Andy went out of his way to make our stay perfect. The campsite is immaculate and beautifully kept. The staff were very pleasant. The only small downside was there was nowhere walkable to go for a drink because I am visually impaired so poor husband had to drive. I think it's walkable across the field.

Cornish Delight

Brown, Matt - 22/07/2025

5

This was our fifth visit to Porthtowan Tourist Park and we keep returning because it’s just fab. It’s a site that’s big enough but small enough and has that personal feeling emanating from the staff. We love the fact that the basics are done brilliantly - it’s super-clean, well maintained and in a lovely, quiet location …which is also close to the village and beach. The area around holds lots of potential adventures, from cliff walks to beaches to surf. The addition of weekly pop-ups (wood-fired pizzas a particular favourite!) further enhance this site’s all round awesomeness.
