The best dog-friendly campsites in Cornwall

Embark on the ultimate pet-friendly camping getaway to South West England amid the stunning landscapes of Cornwall. Bring the family dog on a hike along the 600-mile South West Coast Path, England’s longest waymarked trail. Soak in views of the Cornish coastline while passing through St. Ives, Penzance, and Falmouth, or cycle the serene Camel Trail with your loyal companion running alongside. Explore pet-friendly beaches like Fistral Beach in Newquay, Crantock Beach near Pentire Headland, and The Rumps in the northern part of Cornwall. From caravan parks with full hookups, toilets, showers, and comfort stations to rustic tent pitches that provide an off-the-grid experience, pet-friendly camping in Cornwall is abundant. Dog-friendly holiday parks stretch from St. Just on the Penwith Heritage Coast to Perranporth in the north and Looe to the east. Summer months around Cornwall are the warmest, when daytime temperatures in the low 20s are perfect for hiking, biking, or just playing fetch with your favourite pooch. If you're going camping in Cornwall, there’s no need to leave four-legged friends at home—we've sniffed out the best pitches for pets. Plus, dog-friendly attractions in Cornwall include The Lost Gardens of Heligan and the four miles of footpaths within the Eden Project (though the biospheres are off limits). And when it comes to eating out, plenty of pubs and eateries are happy to host well-behaved hounds.

Our collection includes plenty of options for glamping with your dog, too. If you’re a dog lover without any camping clobber or your pooch is used to being pampered, glamping could be the answer. It offers all the advantages of outdoor life without the hassle of having to put up a tent. As such a popular destination, Cornwall has a particularly good range of glamping pads, from safari tents to shepherds’ huts, tipis to treehouses—and plenty are dog-friendly too. From seaside retreats on the Cornish coast, to inland hideaways near Bodmin Moor, find the best dog-friendly stays in Cornwall now.

Weekend Trip to Cerenety Eco Campsite

The site was exactly as described! Really quiet and calming. Our only note would be to make sure if your van is bigger than a short wheel base is make sure you are a relatively confident driver as the roads to get to the site are narrow single track and quite tight. But overall we would be happy to stay again.

We absolutely loved our stay at Coronary! It’s such a charming, cozy little campsite with just the right amount of space between tents to feel relaxed. The amenities - showers, washing-up area, and composting toilet - were simple but had everything we needed. The surrounding nature was outstanding and we got to know friendly local sheep and alpaca. We had so much fun enjoying a campfire at night with a fire bowl we borrowed and wood we picked up right on site. Can’t wait to come back again!
