The moor opens wide here, and on clear mornings the light rolls across empty grassland all the way to the horizon.

Carnevas suits motorhomers and caravanners after a no-frills pitch in proper Cornish countryside — the kind of place where you park up, crack open the door, and let the quiet settle in. Dog walkers will want to check the policy before booking, but the open land around here is made for long leads and muddy paws. This is mid-Cornwall at its least polished: working farms, narrow lanes, landscape that hasn't changed much in decades.

Facilities aren't listed, so expect basics rather than bells and whistles — it's worth a call ahead to confirm what's onsite. Campfires may be allowed depending on conditions, so ask when you arrive. Anglers might appreciate The Alps Fishery a short drive away if the mood takes them. The vibe is low-key and unfussy: you come for the space, the simplicity, and the sense you've properly left town behind.

Booby's Bay walk, North Cornwall

Follows dramatic coastal paths with moderate climbs along rugged cliffs between Constantine Bay and Trevose Head. Suitable for older children with good stamina, but steep sections and clifftop exposure make it unsuitable for buggies or toddlers. Dogs welcome on leads near livestock and cliff edges. Delivers spectacular Atlantic views, secluded coves, and classic Cornish headland scenery managed by the National Trust—worth it for the raw coastal drama and seabird spotting.
