Anchor Barrow Campsite is a family-run touring and camping site on the outskirts of Perranporth on Cornwall's north coast, set on farming land with views over the surrounding countryside. On site you'll find the Cornish-stocked Barrow Bar, a breakfast trailer, an on-site shop selling meat, milk and other essentials, plus toilets, hot showers, a laundrette and baby changing facilities. The site welcomes dogs, with a dog roaming area, and is one of the few local campsites happy to take group bookings. It's just a five-minute walk from the Cornish coast path, and Perranporth beach is close by, along with several local museums including Perranporth Museum and Blue Hills Tin Streams, making it a good base for exploring the area.
