About Merrose Farm Caravan and Motorhome Club Site
This immaculately maintained parkland site near Truro strikes an ideal balance between peaceful countryside retreat and convenient base for exploring the Roseland Peninsula. Facilities shine—spotlessly clean shower blocks with plenty of hot water, well-spaced pitches (both grass and hardstanding), and thoughtful extras like a dog park and parent-baby washroom. Staff earn consistent praise for their warmth and genuinely helpful local knowledge.
The site's flat, open layout makes manoeuvring easy, while families appreciate the play area and regular fish-and-chip van visits. Walkers and cyclists have excellent routes on the doorstep, and St Mawes, with its castle and harbour, lies just a short drive away. It's a polished, well-run operation that feels welcoming rather than regimented—though those seeking wild camping character may find the manicured approach a touch corporate.

What visitors say
Merrose St Mawes Caravan & Motorhome Campsite. This was our first camping experience at a campsite and we found all the facilities were immaculately clean, tidy, shower rooms were spacious, plenty wash basins and water was always hot. Pitches were flat and making it easy to park and pitch our awning. The location was very handy for the places we visited. The Reception staff were warm, welcoming, friendly, gave us lots of useful advice. Stuart and Nic went far and beyond when we accidentally locked ourselves out of our van - they made numerous calls to our car recovery service and insurers. Stuart and Nic also went the extra mile and arranged for a locksmith, who arrived within an hour to attend to us. We are eternally grateful to Stuart and Nic for their invaluable help and support. All in all, we had a great time and would recommend to our friends and family.

Been coming here for over 30 years. This place is listed as “work” in my Satnav, but it could not be more relaxing, and very well run & tidy.
