Dog-friendly camping near Thurlestone

·

Dog in tow? Thurlestone rolls out the welcome mat with over 700 pet-friendly camping options. You’ll find sites with easy access to South Devon’s coastal trails, open fields for roaming, and plenty of wildlife-watching from your tent flap. Prices start at just £10 a night, with the average hovering around £30. Top picks from locals and regulars include Meldon Lake and Woods Wild Camping (88 reviews), where you can walk straight into woodlands, Bush Farm Campsite (37 reviews) for its relaxed vibe, and Pittaford Farm (32 reviews) with its tucked-away pitches. Most sites here allow campfires, and you’ll always find a toilet block nearby. Bring your boots—hiking and fishing spots are never far, and you’ll have plenty of chances for a muddy pawprint or two.

This peaceful, sheltered site has a special character. The site is the ideal place to unwind with plenty of safe space, a meandering river and friendly atmosphere. It offers 4 acres with facilities, 7 acres of wilderness, shower block, level pitches, picturesque river, children’s playground and has been rated AA 4 star gold pennant. Becky and John both love Cornwall and fell in love with the site as soon as they saw it and it provided the perfect opportunity for a new challenge. Having only recently taken over at Willow Valley in the Summer of 2024, there are always ongoing improvements being made so make sure you keep in touch. Any returning campers will be glad to know we aren’t changing the campsite itself though. Why would we when it is already so perfect!
