Welcome to
Chapel Porth
Motorhome Park
Your Cornish Coastal Escape
Nestled beside a thriving woodland filled with deer, squirrels, and vibrant birdlife, Chapel Porth Motor Home Park is the perfect place to park up, unwind, and soak in the beauty of Cornwall. The park overlooks the stunning National Trust–protected Chapel Porth Valley, with scenic views reaching across to the historic Great Wheal Charlotte.
Just a short 2-minute drive or a leisurely 15-minute stroll takes you to the breathtaking Chapel Porth Beach. Equally close is the iconic Wheal Coates mine stack, perched above the cliffs, and the majestic views from St Agnes Head – a mere 7-minute drive or 30-minute walk away.
Beach Days and Cliffside Views
Spend your days enjoying the glorious golden sands of Chapel Porth Beach, which stretch for three and a half miles at low tide – all the way from the mysterious caves and tunnels beneath Wheal Coates to the welcoming surf of Porthtowan Beach. The beach is perfect for families, with plenty of rock pools for children to explore.
For nature lovers, the nearby cliffs offer fantastic vantage points for spotting dolphins, tuna, and even whales. Or, simply sit back, relax, and enjoy the sun-drenched, southerly-facing views.
Feeling adventurous? Climb St Agnes Beacon and marvel at panoramic views from St Ives to Carn Brea, and all the way up to Trevose Head.

Charming
St Agnes Village Awaits
If you can tear yourself away from the peace and quiet, the charming village of St Agnes is just a stone’s throw away. Cosy pubs, welcoming eateries, and a picturesque cove invite you to explore.
St Agnes Beach, once a bustling harbour where schooners were built on the sand, is now a family-friendly haven. The village itself was once one of the richest tin mining communities in the world, watched over by the dramatic remnants of old mine stacks. This rich history has made St Agnes a central part of Cornwall’s Mining World Heritage Area.

Located just 400 metres from the beautiful Chapel Porth beach, within the parish of St Agnes, on the North Cornwall coast. Ideally positioned to explore everything Cornwall has to offer.
The Legend of Bolster
St Agnes owes its name to a legendary tale. Long ago, a fearsome giant named Bolster terrorised the villagers—until he fell hopelessly in love with a beautiful maiden named Agnes. To prove his devotion, she asked him to fill a hole in the rocks at Chapel Porth with his blood. What Bolster didn’t realise was that the hole led straight into the sea. The more blood he poured in, the more escaped, and it never filled. Bolster was tricked and perished on the cliffs, freeing the village from his reign of terror. Agnes became a local heroine, and the village took her name.
Even today, the sea sometimes runs red around St Agnes—said to be Bolster’s blood—and every May, the village celebrates his defeat with Bolster Day.
