About this site
Pitches: 56 Opening Dates: April To September Our relaxed and friendly, family-run campsite Penhale is set on a working organic farm covering 400 lush acres in an area of outstanding natural beauty. It's the closest caravan and camping park to the ancient fishing village of Fowey, on the Fowey side of the river. For a traditional seaside escape or a relaxed weekend holiday in Cornwall, Penhale is the perfect place to stay. Everywhere on the site enjoys spectacular countryside and sea views across St Austell Bay, and the beautiful surrounding countryside inspired many of Daphne Du Maurier's world famous novels. We provide self-catering accommodation in our two and three bed caravan holiday homes as well as generous-sized, level electric hook-up pitches and a clean, modern shower block for campers and tourers. We have an on-site shop selling award-winning Cornish produce, and there is also a free games room, a small library, and free wi-fi across the campsite. The nearest beach, Polkerris, is only one mile away. Take a pleasant walk along the Saints Way to this beautiful sandy cove, with a popular water sports centre, historic pub and quality restaurant all overlooking the beach. Walk about a mile in the opposite direction and you will reach Fowey, where you can enjoy wandering quaint cobbled streets, sample a traditional cream tea, and explore a range of quirky independent and luxury brand shops, bars and waterside restaurants. Our enviable location is a popular choice for camping in Cornwall as we are close to some top attractions, such as the Eden Project and the Lost Gardens of Heligan, making it a great base from which to explore the rest of the county. Cornwall is steeped in history and rugged charm. With a slower pace of life, its the ideal escape from busy modern lives. Enjoy the breathtaking coastline while relaxing on a plethora of beautiful beaches or take to the water sailing, kayaking or fishing. We look forward to welcoming you to Penhale!
