How Holiday Parks and Campsites Are Using Drones to Attract More Visitors
Cornwall’s holiday parks and campsites have some of the most spectacular locations in the UK — but many struggle to communicate this through traditional marketing.
That’s where drone photography and video are making a big difference. More and more Cornish parks are using aerial imagery to capture the unique character of their sites and drive online bookings.
Here’s how your park or campsite could benefit:
1️⃣ Show Off Your Location
Cornwall attracts visitors from all over the world because of its stunning landscapes — and drone footage is the perfect way to showcase your location.
Dramatic clifftop views
Proximity to beaches or coast paths
Rolling countryside
Secluded rural settings
Aerial video can give prospective guests a real sense of place and atmosphere, helping them visualise their stay.
Example: A short drone flyover of a campsite nestled in the dunes near St Ives can convey more emotion and impact than 20 ground-level photos.
2️⃣ Promote Site Layout & Facilities
Holidaymakers want to know exactly what they’re booking. Drone imagery can clearly show:
Site layout and spacing of pitches
Proximity of accommodation to key facilities (pools, play areas, beaches)
Onsite amenities and green spaces
Views from lodges, tents or caravans
This helps manage expectations and improves booking conversion rates — especially for premium pitches or accommodation with sea views.
3️⃣ Increase Social Media Engagement
Holiday parks and campsites rely heavily on social media marketing. Drone content performs exceptionally well on platforms like:
Instagram Reels
Facebook Ads
YouTube videos
Short clips of your park in full summer sunshine or under starry skies will attract more engagement, shares, and ultimately, more bookings.
Tip: Promote seasonal content — a Christmas lights flyover, spring wildflower meadows, or summer sunsets — to keep your audience engaged year-round.
4️⃣ Improve Website Conversion
Most bookings now happen online. Adding drone video to your homepage, accommodation pages, and booking funnels can significantly increase website conversion rates.
People are more likely to book when they feel inspired and reassured — aerial video provides that reassurance.
Studies show that listings with video content increase conversions by up to 80% — that’s a huge opportunity for holiday parks and campsites.
