The Tamar valley rolls out wide and soft from this tucked-away park near London Apprentice, where the light shifts all day across the water meadows and Cornwall feels properly close.

This is a caravan and campervan site suited to tourers who want a gentle base between river and moor — Dartmoor's eastern edge is nearby, and you're well-placed for exploring the Tamar Valley's old mining trails and market towns without the coastal crowds. Dogs are welcome by arrangement, so worth checking ahead if you're travelling with a four-legged companion.

Facilities aren't spelled out in detail, so it's one to ring before you book if you need specifics. Campfires are sometimes allowed but check when you arrive — policies can shift with the season and the weather. The vibe feels quiet and low-key, the sort of spot that suits campers after space and a bit of peace rather than bells and whistles. Anglers might note that Cuddra Aquatics is a short drive away if you fancy a session on stillwater between valley walks.

South West Coast Path (Section 32: Mevagissey to Par)

National Trails logoNational Trails

Follows dramatic clifftops and secluded coves along Cornwall's coast with moderate to steep climbs throughout. Terrain includes coastal paths, woodland tracks, and occasional beach sections - not suitable for buggies and challenging for very young children due to elevation changes and cliff edges. Dogs welcome but must be kept under close control near livestock and cliff paths. Rewards you with stunning views across St Austell Bay, hidden beaches, and classic Cornish fishing villages.

South West Coast Path (Diversion West of Charlestown)

Follows a dramatic clifftop diversion with moderate to steep sections and uneven, potentially exposed terrain—not suitable for buggies or very young children. Dogs welcome on leads near cliff edges. Delivers stunning coastal views across St Austell Bay and avoids the original route through Charlestown's harbour area, offering a more rugged alternative with typical South West Coast Path character: wild, windswept, and utterly rewarding for those comfortable with hills and height.

South West Coast Path (Section 31: Portloe to Mevagissey)

National Trails logoNational Trails

Follows dramatic clifftops between two charming fishing villages with steep ascents and descents throughout—expect a proper workout. Terrain is rugged with exposed sections, narrow paths, and uneven ground, making it unsuitable for buggies and challenging for young children. Dogs welcome on leads near livestock and cliff edges. Rewards with stunning coastal views, hidden coves, and the picturesque Portholland beaches midway, plus proper Cornish fishing harbour atmosphere at both ends.
