Higher Penderleath Caravan and Camping Park

Higher Penderleath Caravan & Camping Park is a relaxed touring and camping site set in the Cornish countryside near St Ives. Overlooking the surrounding rural landscape towards the north coast, it offers a convenient base for campervan and motorhome travellers wanting to explore West Cornwall while staying away from the busier seaside resorts.

The park welcomes touring caravans, motorhomes and tents, with grass pitches available with or without electric hook-up. Electric pitches have a 10-amp supply, making them a useful option for campervan owners who need access to mains electricity. The site also offers seasonal pitches for those looking to spend longer periods enjoying Cornwall.

Facilities include toilet blocks with free hot showers, a dishwashing room and a launderette. New facilities advertised for 2026 include Wi-Fi, secure barrier-controlled access and 24-hour CCTV. The park aims to maintain a clean, friendly atmosphere, with traditional granite buildings adding character to the site.

Its location makes Higher Penderleath a good starting point for discovering St Ives, known for its sandy beaches, harbour and art galleries. Hayle, Carbis Bay and the wider Penwith peninsula are also within reach, while the surrounding countryside offers opportunities for walking and exploring Cornwall’s historic landscape.

Dogs are welcome, subject to the park’s rules, and the site has a quieter rural feel while remaining accessible from the A30. Whether you’re planning a coastal holiday, a walking break or a longer touring stay, Higher Penderleath provides a practical base for exploring the beaches and attractions of West Cornwall.
