The Ultimate 7-Day Cornwall Campervan Itinerary

Day 1: Arrival at Newquay – Beachside Bliss

Pick up your VW campervan from Vdubline, fully equipped with kitchen facilities, cosy bedding, and everything you need for life on the road. Head straight to Fistral Beach—famous for its surf scene—and spend the afternoon learning to ride the waves or just soaking in the laid-back coastal vibe. As evening sets, park at a nearby campsite and enjoy fresh fish-and-chips under a sunset sky.

Day 2: Head West to St. Ives

Wake up early and take a slow drive along Cornwall’s iconic north coast to St. Ives. Known for its golden sand, artisan shops, and Tate St Ives gallery, it’s a perfect place to stretch your legs. Explore Porthmeor Beach, stroll the harbour, and wander through charming alleyways. Return to your VW campervan for a cozy evening at a campsite just outside town.

Day 3: Land’s End & Minack Theatre

Continue to Cornwall’s iconic tip—Land’s End. The dramatic cliffs, Atlantic vistas, and wildflower scenery make for an unforgettable morning. In the afternoon, head to the Minack Theatre, a spectacular cliffside open-air theatre carved into the granite. Catch a performance or simply soak in the jaw-dropping views. Sleep at a scenic clifftop Aire or campsite nearby.

 Day 4: Moors & Bodmin Moor

Trade coastal views for rugged inland beauty today. Drive your VW campervan into Bodmin Moor and wander through its wild terrain, granite tors, and stone circles. Consider visiting Jamaica Inn for a bit of literary lore, or explore the historic Bodmin Jail. Enjoy a hearty dinner cooked in your campervan’s galley kitchen before settling in at a rustic campsite under the stars.

Day 5: South Coast – Lizard & Kynance Cove

The South Cornwall Coast is full of surprises—start at Kynance Cove with its turquoise water, serpentine rock formations, and postcard-perfect beach. Then cruise towards The Lizard Peninsula, stopping in Mullion, Cadgwith, and Lizard Point. The scenery is dramatic, tranquil, and utterly captivating. Wrap up with an evening by the sea and perhaps a visit to a traditional pub.

Day 6: Falmouth, Helford River & Hidden Creeks

This day is for sailors and sea lovers. Park your campervan near Falmouth and experience a river cruise up the Helford River through wooded creeks and picturesque villages. Back in Falmouth, explore the historic waterfront and bustling town centre. Cook a delicious campervan dinner near the river or enjoy local seafood in town.

Day 7: Padstow & Bedruthan Steps Finale

On your final day, journey north to Padstow—‘Padstein’ in Cornish—celebrated for its harbor, Rick Stein’s restaurants, and charming coastal energy. Reward yourself with fresh seafood. Then drive to Bedruthan Steps—a breathtaking collection of rock stacks rising above golden sands. It’s the perfect place to reflect on your week and take final sunset photos before returning your VW campervan to Vdubline the next morning.
