Motorhome Stopovers in Porthtowan

Porthtowan is a small coastal village on the north Cornish coast, around four miles north of Redruth and close to the B3300 which runs along this stretch of coastline. It sits within the Cornwall & West Devon Mining Landscape World Heritage Site — the cliffs and headlands around the village are dotted with the remains of engine houses from the tin and copper mining era. The A30 is only a few minutes inland, making it a convenient stop for motorhomers passing through mid-Cornwall.
