Cockles Caravan Park, nestled in the countryside by Saltash on the Cornwall-Devon border, offers a peaceful, small-scale camping experience for Caravan and Motorhome Club members. With just five grass pitches, each featuring electric hook-ups, it’s a quiet spot perfect for couples or families looking to unwind close to nature. Facilities are simple — water, waste disposal, and recycling points are provided, but there are no toilets or showers onsite. The site sits next to the China Fleet Golf and Country Club, so visitors can enjoy a nearby spa, restaurant, and riverside walks. A welcoming honesty box sells fresh eggs and home-grown veggies, adding to the laid-back farm feel.
Beyond the site, there’s plenty to explore in the Tamar Valley and surrounding areas. You can wander along beautiful riverside paths near the Royal Albert Bridge, an iconic Brunel masterpiece, or head into Saltash town for local pubs, shops, and cafés. For outdoor enthusiasts, day trips to Dartmoor, Bodmin Moor, and Cornwall’s stunning coastline are easily within reach. Whether casting a line in nearby fishing spots, visiting the historic market towns, or simply soaking up the rural charm, Cockles Caravan Park makes a perfect base for a relaxed yet adventurous break.
