About camping in Cornwall
Cornwall is an ancient Celtic nation with its own language, Kernewek, still spoken by thousands of people and taught in some local schools. The county's tourism economy is almost entirely seasonal, with the majority of visitors arriving between June and September. The Cornish Riviera Express from London Paddington reaches Penzance in under five hours. With over 300 licensed campsites, Cornwall has one of the highest densities of camping provision in the UK, ranging from cliffside adults-only sites with sea views to large family parks with heated pools.
Why camp in Cornwall?
Cornwall sits at the very tip of Britain, a peninsula shaped by Atlantic weather and ancient Cornish culture, with a coastline longer than many European countries. For campers it offers an almost unbeatable combination: surf beaches world-famous enough to host international competitions, sheltered south-coast coves ideal for snorkelling and rock pooling, the subtropical gardens of the Lizard and the Lost Gardens of Heligan, and a food scene led by freshly landed seafood. Camping in Cornwall means waking to the smell of salt air and walking to a beach in minutes. It's the closest thing to a continental summer holiday on British soil.
