I love Cornwall and have been going for 20 years, but have yet to find a camp site on the beach without a clubhouse, so I await to see what comes up as I may join you!!!!!

Hi
I know , to me the whole point of camping is to get the family back to basics.

A lot just seem like Benidorm in a tent.

We will see. I had heard of one way down south that's supposed to be very natural but can't remember it.

Cheers

John

Gwithian Area, The steps down to the beach collapsed in the storms last year so to get to the dog beach you had to go down the other steps that take you onto the no dogs beach.
You then had to walk through the no dogs beach to get to the dogs allowed beach.
belive it or not dog wardens waited at the bottom of these steps handing out on the spot fines to anyone who tried it.    there is a sign at the top of the steps stating no dogs
even the lifeguards at the top advised you not to do it.
This is a fantastic part of Cornwall and i have been going to this area for many years and it only becomes dog friendly after 7.00pm when you can go on all the beaches with your dog.
The best all day beach i have been on is Peranporth where half the beach allows dogs.
Dont be put off, the area is amazing Put Hayle Cornwall into google maps and view the whole area.

Hi there
For your info on Perranporth beach,
Perranporth allows dogs on ALL the beach they only have part of the beach restricted between the hours of 10am-5pm where the dogs have to be on a lead. Before and after that time the rest of the beach and all the dunes behind have no restrictions whatsoever this only applies to July and August too. So it is great for dogs.

Hi thanks
This looks pretty good , and very reasonable for me as kids go free.

Only niggle would be it does look cramped and a bit formal all in rows in the pictures.

But stunning location

Cheers

John

The Caravan Club have a site between Hayle and Gwithian i think behind the dunes! quiet and remote and close to the jewel that is St Ives.

Hi back again

All previous suggestions are booked up so still looking

Been holding out for a cancellation on gwithian but nothing doing.

So anywhere else.

Prepared to give up the dream of beach front at this stage as long as near a beach

Cheers
John

Have a look at Old Macdonalds Farm, just outside padstow on the way to Perranporth. You can walk to the beach. We've only been outside school holidays so can't vouch for the facilities when busy. But it was lovely when we were there.
