Cardinney Caravan & Camping Park is an adults-only touring and camping site in the countryside near Penzance, West Cornwall. Set in around five acres of landscaped farmland between Penzance and Land’s End, the family-run park offers a peaceful base for campervan and motorhome owners looking to explore Cornwall’s beaches, coastal walks and historic attractions.

There is also an enclosed dog exercise area, and dogs are welcome subject to the park’s rules.

Its position just off the A30 makes it convenient for exploring the far west of Cornwall. Land’s End, Sennen Cove and the Minack Theatre are popular nearby attractions, while Penzance and Mount’s Bay offer beaches, harbour walks and places to eat. St Michael’s Mount and the South West Coast Path are also within reach for day trips and coastal walks.

Fox Farm Motorhome Park is a small, peaceful touring site on a working farm at Higher Trevayor, near Gulval and Penzance in West Cornwall. With a limited number of spacious, private pitches and countryside surroundings, it’s a good option for campervan and motorhome owners who prefer a quieter stop rather than a large holiday park. The park offers self-contained gravel pitches measuring approximately 7.5m by 12m, with electric hook-up, a fresh water supply from a borehole and nearby waste-disposal facilities. Recycling points are provided, and there’s a small farm shop selling locally grown fruit and vegetables. Some larger pitches can also accommodate touring caravans, but it’s best to confirm availability and vehicle suitability with the owners before booking. Dogs are welcome, although they must be kept on a lead because the site is part of a working farm. Barbecues are permitted, and guests are asked to respect the quiet-hours policy after 10pm. The park’s appeal lies in its simple, practical facilities, individual pitch space and rural setting rather than extensive on-site entertainment. Fox Farm is well placed for exploring West Cornwall. Nearby Trevaylor Woods and the Penwith Moors offer opportunities for walks, while local attractions include Lanyon Quoit, Chysauster Ancient Village and Geevor Tin Mine.
