Redruth Holiday Parks – FAQs

Where do people actually go from Redruth when on holiday?

Redruth is all about quick access to the north coast. Most people head straight to Portreath which is about 10 minutes away for a surf or a walk along the harbour. St Agnes is around 15 minutes and is one of the best all-round spots with Trevaunance Cove, good cafés and coastal walks. Perranporth is about 20 minutes if you want a much bigger sandy beach. You can also reach Hayle and Gwithian in around 25 minutes for long open beaches.

Which nearby beaches are worth visiting from Redruth?

Portreath is the closest and easiest, with a compact beach and a proper village feel. St Agnes offers Trevaunance Cove which is smaller but more scenic with cliffs and a good mix of beach and walking. Perranporth is the go-to for space and surfing with miles of sand. If you want something quieter, Chapel Porth near St Agnes is a great option, especially for rock pools and a more rugged setting.

Are there any good pubs and places to eat near Redruth?

Yes, but you need to head out of the town slightly. The Portreath Arms is right by the beach and a solid stop after a walk or surf. In St Agnes, The Driftwood Spars is one of the best pubs in the area, known for its own brewery and good food. The Taphouse in Portreath is another good option overlooking the beach. These are the places people actually return to rather than staying in Redruth itself.

What are the best walks around the Redruth area?

The best walks are along the coast rather than directly in the town. From Portreath, you can walk along the coast path towards Godrevy with views across the north coast. St Agnes to Chapel Porth is another strong route with cliffs and mining remains along the way. Inland, there are shorter walks around old mining areas, but the coastline is the main draw.

Can you easily reach places like St Ives or Hayle from Redruth?

Yes, and this is one of the reasons people stay here. Hayle and Gwithian are about 25 minutes away, giving access to some of the biggest beaches in Cornwall. St Ives is around 30 minutes depending on traffic, making it an easy day trip without staying in a much busier location.

Are there holiday parks and caravan parks around Redruth?

Yes, there are several parks just outside Redruth rather than in the town itself. Globe Vale Holiday Park is one of the closest and gives quick access to both the coast and inland areas. There are also smaller caravan parks and touring sites scattered between Redruth, St Agnes and Portreath, often in quieter countryside settings.

What is there to see around Redruth apart from the coast?

The area around Redruth is part of Cornwall’s mining heritage, and you can still see engine houses and old mining landscapes across the countryside. East Pool Mine is one of the main preserved sites nearby. These areas also double as walking routes, giving you something different from the beach for a day.

Is Redruth actually a good place to stay or just a base?

It is very much a base. You would not stay in Redruth for the town itself, but for how quickly you can get to places that are much more scenic and interesting. If you are happy driving 10 to 25 minutes each day, it gives you access to a wide range of locations without the cost or crowds of staying on the coast.
