Hi guys. We want to go to Cornwall this year. Never been before. Been looking at the map, now I'm even more confused! We have two kids, 4 and 7. Can anyone suggest an area. We love rock pools and beaches. Thanks
Don't forget to leave a review of the campsites you have visited this year or last!
Anywhere in the St Ives Bay area or Mount's Bay area. Loads and loads of pretty little coves and beaches and loads of choices of caravan sites.
When searching site directories the principal towns for St Ives Bay are St Ives, Hayle, Redruth, Camborne and for Mounts Bay, Penzance, Helston, Mullion. Falmouth very good too but a little further away.
North coast very rugged and exposed, south coast softer more sheltered and in many ways prettier.That's just my personal opinion.
Cheers!
Vic

Mevagissey is nice. Pentewan Sands Site was great 30 years ago when I was there last and the reviews on it are still excellent. I do find Cornwall expensive and particularly Pentewan Sands.

OR YOU CAN TAKE THE CHILDREN CRABBING DOWN THE SLIPWAY PLENTY OF NICE LITTLE WALKS TOO
As others have said St Ives area is fantastic , great beaches and lots of areas for rock pools.There are coves galore to explore on north and south coasts, providing you do not want promenades full of amusements, go for it but book early it is a very popular area.
We go to Pentewan sands, have done so for many years. Not cheap by any means & in need of some updatig but very good for familes with young chldren & right on its own beach.
