  • Family-friendly site with 56 acres of scenic Cornish countryside
  • A 10-minute drive from Newquay and Perranporth
  • Outdoor pool, play areas, bars, restaurants and takeaways
Within 10 minutes' drive of the golden sands of Perranporth beach and Newquay's vibrant surf scene, Monkey Tree Holiday Park is a family-friendly holiday destination set in 56 acres of scenic Cornish countryside. Families looking for an equal mix of relaxation and entertainment should very much appreciate this place… First of all, it has a heated outdoor swimming pool, indoor and outdoor play areas and a jam-packed schedule of seasonal entertainment to keep families entertained. Kids should appreciate flitting between the miniature golf course, the arcade and themed activities, while adults can unwind with live music and excellent food or take the time to soak in the peaceful surroundings. There are on-site bars, restaurants and takeaways. The location is also worth an honorary mention: Monkey Tree Holiday Park is in a prime spot on the north coast of Cornwall, within striking distance of the famed surf beaches of Newquay and the lovely village of Perranporth. The cathedral city of Truro is a 15-minute drive from base too, and has plenty of shops, dining venues and cultural attractions. Guests can easily explore the coast and countryside. This site caters for families and couples only; no solo travellers or groups.

What customers say

This is a popular, family-friendly campsite with a beautiful pool, extensive activities, and friendly staff. Pitches are generally spacious and well-maintained, and facilities are kept clean, though some reviews mention dated shower blocks. Entertainment is a hit with children, and the location is convenient for exploring the area. However, some visitors reported issues with the pool booking system, noise, and occasionally insufficient toilet facilities during peak times. WiFi can also be unreliable.

Electric grass pitch (comfort)

Liked Pool, playground, games, food and general activities like bingo, trampolines and meltdown.

Disliked No WiFi on our campsite or phone signal so was a complete dead spot - noisy campsite right next to football turf and arcade up until 11.30pm. Toilet block not near by about 5min walk

Electric grass pitch

Liked The grounds / pool are stunning the entertainment is good if u can get down early enough to get a table .
The location is great for getting out seeing the sites

Disliked The entertainment area main bar is small and if ur not there a few hours beforehand it’s hard to get a seat .
The grass electric pitch we stayed on was jam packed there is no space between pitches there was 4 in my row and 4 directly behind so was very noisy they could do with separating them slightly as my rent and chairs took up the whole pitch .

Electric grass pitch

Liked Fab Holliday park with great entertainment and plenty to do.

Disliked Park needs cleaning more regularly as unfortunately some children were a little feral and were wiping s**t down the slide. Needs better monitoring.
Signal and WiFi was bad but we were on holiday so not an issue to us.

Electric hardstanding and grass pitch (premium)

Liked Very nice pitches, clean and tidy. Swimming pool was amazing. Friendly staff with plenty to do. Great for the kids.

Disliked Need to clamp down on badly behaved children where the parents are nowhere to be seen. You know the ones where they just let their children run wild whilst they are in the bar on the lash.

Electric grass pitch

Liked Staff were very polite and nice to chat too

Disliked Unmonitored play area, my son got kicked in the face by a older child, who jumped down the slide, the camp site was riddled with ants and a huge wasp nest behind us, that never got resolved. Entertainment is a repeat every night, and very minimal benches to sit at. Entering the site is not well planned out and is a nightmare on entry day. Male toilets were constantly blocked with feces.

Recommend to friends Visit again

Lovely site. Would definitely go back for a 3rd stay.

Electric grass pitch

Liked As previously stayed at monkey tree, coming back was lovely. Probably better than previous stay, might be because we stayed for longer, and already know what it was about and what there was to do. Even after 7 mights the longest we have camped for we did not want to go home. Pitch sizes are really good, toilet block was always very clean, every time I went to the toilet it was being cleaned or had cleared just been cleaned. The entertainment was first rate. Food in the beach clubs was cracking, fish and chips was very nice although did Sean a bit smaller than previous time but still big enough. My son bring a couple of years older now had the freedom he needed to go off exploring and making friends and I didn’t feel I needed to check up on him every 2 minutes. The scoop deck ice cream shop is a great new addition. And the hire shop is a great idea although I didn’t use it but like it anyway.

Disliked Checking was completed carnage cars parked everywhere. But not really there fault. Couldn’t get a late check out was they were to busy to allow without paying for additional night, but again not a major issue. And only thing thing is the beach club is small for the size of site, so if you want to enjoy the main entertainment need to get in there early to get a table, we never had a issue but a few minutes later arriving we would have.

Electric grass pitch (comfort)

Liked Lovely park,

Disliked There was dog poo left on our pitch by the previous campers. You need to be checking pitches after people have had dogs on them. We had kids, it was lucky noone of them walked in it.

Electric grass pitch

Liked Staff were great and very welcoming. Tidy site. Good for small children.

Disliked A very loud site. Lots of people that were inconsiderate and ignored the times that should be quiet. Dogs barking at 2.30am. Not enough showers/toilets to accommodate the size of the site. Children left to run feral and ruin the play areas whilst parents got drunk in the bar areas.

Local attractions

Cornwall’s coastline and beaches are pretty much legendary, but Newquay (10 minutes) is world-famed for its surf and nightlife too. It’s a party town from daybreak until well after dark and the surf's so good they hold international competitions here – check out Fistral Beach and Watergate Bay. Perranporth (10 minutes) is the place to head for a more relaxed beach day, though it’s very popular so best to get your towel down early. The beach here is a fab spot for dog walking, rolling up the trousers for a paddle or lazing around and copping a look at the views. The Eden Project (35 minutes) has the UK’s most realistic rainforest, full of rare plant species and exotic butterflies, as well as a pretty nifty Mediterranean biome. Daredevils can also have a go on England’s longest zipwires here.
