Please note that this is a pop-up campsite, open for a limited number of days each year.

Penrose Campsite is open in August only and makes the perfect getaway for the summer holidays. It's a great Cornish base and within walking distance of Porthleven Village, ten minutes from the beach and only five minutes from the South West Coast Path.

About Penrose Campsite

Fancy camping by the coast? Penrose's pitches are spread across two fields, sheltered by Cornish hedges and offering easy access to walks around the Penrose Estate, the coastal footpath and Porthleven. The site is part of a working dairy and arable farm located in the countryside on the edge of Porhleven Village offering a perfect base to explore the magical coast of West Cornwall. Pitch sizes are unrestricted, so it's easy to pick where you'd like to get settled and spread out. There's no electric, but there are incredible countryside and sea views, amazing sunsets and convenient facilities in the form of two toilet and shower blocks.

Open from 1 August to 31 August
