  • Family-run park in north Cornwall, a 10-minute drive from beaches
  • Five miles from restaurants and harbour in Padstow
  • Minimal electric lighting to give dark skies for stargazing
It's quiet, rural and in a secluded setting, but you're actually very well connected at Yonder Green Caravan Park. This small, peaceful and family-run park in St Ervan is only a few miles from some of north Cornwall's finest beaches (Porthcothan and Constantine Bay among them). It's also only five miles from Padstow (where you may have heard there's another fine beach), and 10 from Newquay (where you may have heard there's fine foaming surf). Other top tourist attractions are accessible via the A39, which is five miles away. For food, several village pubs are within a couple of miles, and it's a 10-minute drive to the famed restaurants of Padstow, where there's also a farm shop and a large supermarket. Dogs are welcome on site and can be taken on walks on a path running from just outside the gates.

What customers say

This is a peaceful, well-maintained campsite with large, level pitches. Visitors praise the friendly and helpful owners, clean facilities, and ample hot water. While some describe the facilities as basic and dated, they are consistently reported as clean and functional. The quiet, rural location is ideal for a relaxing break and is a short drive from local attractions. A few guests noted a lack of WiFi and poor mobile reception.

A M.

Electric optional grass motorhome pitch (no awning, tents not permitted)

Liked The pitches are a great size, really appreciated the space. Owner was very helpful. Pitch was actually level, which, for a motorhome is really helpful. Water point and electric point at the pitch - quite unusual and a really great help. Quiet part of the countryside, really appreciated that!

Disliked No Wifi - not necessarily a bad thing! Own Internet signal also intermittent but that's Cornwall. If you don't like that, don't book here. We didn't mind at all.

Electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch

Liked Yonder green is a lovely tranquil campsite that is not over commercialised like some locally and provides decent facilities. Toilets and showers clean and showers nice and hot. No queues for showers etc which is good. Owner is great, approachable, very present and happy to help you out. Site is well maintained. Great location for exploring the 7 bays. Some beautiful beaches within a few minutes via car. This is our second stay here and we really like it. Our son loves the back to nature feel.... some great family time off grid. We had a wonderful time and will definitely rebook. Thank you! If you want play parks, shops and bars etc this is not for you but if you want quality family time on a lovely site with really decent pitches and a good base to explore then it's perfect.

Electric grass touring pitch (tents not permitted)

Liked Quiet site, well situated for the Seven Bays beaches. Good size pitch and thought the idea of allowing the grass to grow to act as a 'boundary' for the pitch was really good.
Although there are only three toilets and showers (which is made very clear when you book) they are clean and tidy with plenty of room.

Local attractions

Camels of two types are available within 10 minutes' drive of the site: the Camel Creek Adventure Park at Tredinnick near Wadebridge, and the start of the car-free and flat bike path the Camel Trail, running for 18 miles from Padstow to Wadebridge and onto Bodmin. If you're staying close to sea and coast, learn the ropes of Cornwall's watery sports at the Newquay Watersports Centre half an hour away, or mosey around town to take the kids to Newquay Zoo and the Blue Reef Aquarium. Further along the coast, Portreath (45 minutes' drive) is another fably foamy surfing spot as well as a tiptop starting point for hikes to Godrevy (eight miles west) or Porthtowan (six and a half miles east). For day trips, famed Cornish attractions like the National Trust-owned Lanhydrock House and the Eden Project are each an hour away, and boat trips on the River Fal from Falmouth are just over an hour's drive south.
