We stayed there once - never camped but bunked in a cottage with relatives.

Lovely place has a little car ferry etc fab restaurants but from memory fairly expensive - but in fairness good quality food !!

Cant help with campsites sorry - !!

Penmarlam is an excellent site, from which you can walk down and catch the Boddinnick Ferry over to Fowey

If you like walking Fowey is great. There is the coastal path of course with some wonderful vews. The Saints Way a footpath from Padstow to Fowey, crossing Bodmin Moor. Quite long for children but you can do bits of it. My favourite is the walk to Lantic Bay and round by the church (can't remember it's name off hand) and back to Fowey via the car ferry.

I have not camped in that area but we are just about to book for the BH at the end of May.

We rent a cottage every October in Fowey and love the place. Its like a mini-Dartmouth.

If the kids too get bored with the town its a good base for exploring the area - Looe, Charlestown, Polperro etc.

All the sites I saw were on the other side of the river but there must be something on Fowey side.

Good luck.
