- Glamping
Run by the Jennings family since 1975, this is a big, well-equipped touring park in farmland a short drive from Watergate Bay beach and Newquay. Pitches come in many flavours, from plain non-electric grass to hedged premium gravel hardstandings with their own water, drain and pergola. Electricity is pay-as-you-go from 2026.
The facilities are the draw for families: an indoor heated pool with a toddler pool, tennis and multi-use courts, a mini skate park, games room with arcade, play field and a bar and clubhouse (the Cribbar). There are also six camping pods and two six-berth static caravans. Not every facility runs all season, so ask reception what is open on your dates.
