About East Crinnis Holiday Park
This family run site is it a top location for exploring the Cornwall coast, just a five minute drive from Carlyon Bay Beach. The Eden Project is also only five minutes away, perfect for days out! Large pitches are provided, at least 8m x 8m in size, and you'll have the choice of hardstanding or grass, with optional 16 amp electric. All pitches are level, with hedging and shrubbery to allow pitches to have some privacy. If glamping is more your style, there are two geodomes, one sleeping four and one sleeping six. All feature a king size bed and futons for extra guests, plus all the bedding you will need. You can also opt for the cosy yurt which comes with a double bed and two roll mats instead. Electric, a fridge, cooking pans, plates, glasses and crockery are provided. There is also lockable storage cupboard, bedside tables, a dining table with four chairs, shoe rack and coat stand. Outside you will also find a BBQ and picnic bench for al fresco dining. A welcome pack with a Cornish cream tea and basket of logs and kindling are included. Camping guests can also bring along their own fire pit, chimenea, BBQ or fire basket, just please ensure it is raised from the ground. Dogs are more than welcome too, with up to two pups permitted per pitch and in the glamping units.
Pitches are available from March to October. Yurts and geodomes open between April and September. The log cabins are open all year round.
