WHEN TO GO

Cornwall is a coastal paradise, so it’s always popular, but April is quieter and cheaper. The Cornish springtime is perfect for those who enjoy being soaked every day. It’s best to visit later in the year if you prefer to stay dry!

WAY TO GO

Away from the A30, Cornish roads can become very narrow, very quickly. Google Street View is invaluable for pre-planning motorhome-friendly routes around the county.

FIND OUT MORE

Cornwall is the land of the brown signs, so you won’t be short of opportunit­ies to enjoy a great day out, without it costing a fortune. Parking motorhomes in parts of the county can be tricky, though, so investigat­e the trains, park and rides and ferries. Many attraction­s are close to each other, so string a few together to keep the mileage down.
