Dog-friendly camping in Cornwall

Name: Cornwall
Address: Camping
Rating: 4.829

Embark on the ultimate pet-friendly camping getaway to South West England amid the stunning landscapes of Cornwall. Bring the family dog on a hike along the 600-mile South West Coast Path, England’s longest waymarked trail. Soak in views of the Cornish coastline while passing through St. Ives, Penzance, and Falmouth, or cycle the serene Camel Trail with your loyal companion running alongside. Explore pet-friendly beaches like Fistral Beach in Newquay, Crantock Beach near Pentire Headland, and The Rumps in the northern part of Cornwall. From caravan parks with full hookups, toilets, showers, and comfort stations to rustic tent pitches that provide an off-the-grid experience, pet-friendly camping in Cornwall is abundant. Dog-friendly holiday parks stretch from St. Just on the Penwith Heritage Coast to Perranporth in the north and Looe to the east. Summer months around Cornwall are the warmest, when daytime temperatures in the low 20s are perfect for hiking, biking, or just playing fetch with your favourite pooch. If you're going camping in Cornwall, there’s no need to leave four-legged friends at home—we've sniffed out the best pitches for pets. Plus, dog-friendly attractions in Cornwall include The Lost Gardens of Heligan and the four miles of footpaths within the Eden Project (though the biospheres are off limits). And when it comes to eating out, plenty of pubs and eateries are happy to host well-behaved hounds.

Our collection includes plenty of options for glamping with your dog, too. If you’re a dog lover without any camping clobber or your pooch is used to being pampered, glamping could be the answer. It offers all the advantages of outdoor life without the hassle of having to put up a tent. As such a popular destination, Cornwall has a particularly good range of glamping pads, from safari tents to shepherds’ huts, tipis to treehouses—and plenty are dog-friendly too. From seaside retreats on the Cornish coast, to inland hideaways near Bodmin Moor, find the best dog-friendly stays in Cornwall now.

Kesoberi community farm is a new pop up off grid eco campsite in a beautiful location with a far reaching views of the sea in West Cornwall. Owned and run by a co-operative who are in the process of rewilding and regenerating our land after a history of intensive agriculture. We have newly built compost loos and a gas powered shower with spacious pitches. There are two camping fields, one where you can park next to your pitch at the bottom of our site and a car free camping field with incredible views to truly get away from it all. In all we have 20 acres for you to explore, and its only a short walk into the village of Paul with its brilliant pub and historic church. We are very close and within walking distance to Mousehole. Mousehole is a picturesque harbour village which is sandy and lovely to swim in, there are lots of shops and places to eat and it has a sea swimming pool that has been recently restored. We are also very near to Newlyn and Penzance with so much to see and do.

Nearly wild camping with spectacular views? Stars and Moor in Bodmin Moor National Landscape certainly has views in spades – right to the distant south coast in fact – and what’s more, there are just a handful of off-grid camping pitches on site, all spread out across two acres of pasture surrounded by Cornish walling. We are a Greener Camping Members Site. To Join is £12.00 for the remainder of the year if you are not already a member. You can join when you arrive. We accept credit cards on site. All the pitches are on grass and you can pick your preferred spot on arrival. Vehicles are parked in a designated area, from which your gear is transported to the pitches in a wheelbarrow. Facilities in the converted horse trailer include hot showers and fully plumbed loos, and there’s ample hot water to make your alfresco washing up less of a chore – but please do note there’s no electricity on site. On-site entertainment is all about the views, which you can appreciate while cooking on your firepit – hire one on site, complete with a supply of firewood. The skies on cloudless nights are a glittering marvel that you can share with family and friends while cosying up around the fire. Pack walking boots for yomps on Bodmin Moor footpaths from your tent, and bring bikes for cycling on moorland tracks or canoes for adventures out on Siblyback Lake. Local amenities are a short stroll away in the village of Minions (20 minutes’ walk), where there’s a well-stocked shop and the highest tea room in Cornwall. Heading in the opposite direction are two pubs within 15 minutes’ walk.

We pitched right by the lake and it was the perfect spot. Such a peaceful location, surrounded by wildlife, making it a lovely place to switch off. The grounds are beautifully maintained, and the toilet and washing facilities are spotless and really well thought out. We also really appreciated the eco-friendly approach! The hosts were so welcoming and friendly from the moment we arrived, and nothing was too much trouble. We honestly couldn’t fault the place at all. Such a wonderful little campsite and we’d happily come back again🤍

4 nights at Cadgwith Wild Camping

This is the most wonderful campsite. The hosts are super friendly and the view from our pitch of the sea was just fantastic. There was a really relaxed atmosphere with like minded campers. Pitches are spacious, but as they are all on grass, may not be completely flat. (This can be easily sorted with some levellers though.) Don't be put off by the composting toilets, they were immaculately clean and smelled fresher than most plumbed in toilets! Hot water in the 3 outdoor shower cabins was plentiful. The food van on site is top notch. It's around a 15 min walk down to the village by road (very safe) longer along the coast path which you can access from the site. It's a bit of a climb back up the hill home though:) hearing the shanty singing on Friday night was a big highlight of our trip, not to mention the seafood and cream tea we had down in the village too. All in all this is one of the best campsites we have stayed at, if you like a more natural campsite experience but with the convenience of loos, hot showers and a food van for when you don't want to cook. We stayed an additional night but wished we could have stayed another week! 100% recommend.
