- Traditional and cosy bar with conservatory and terrace
- Pool, play area and tourist discount vouchers
To Cornwall! And to the beaches of the north coast, the surf of Newquay and the peaceful pedals of the gentle Camel Trail. And also to family-friendly Trekenning Tourist Park, to settle down for lazy days on site in between all the sightseeing, surfing and Cornish pasty sampling.
Trekenning is just outside the small town of St Columb Major, under five miles from Newquay and a short drive from Padstow, Portreath, Watergate Bay and other beaches and seaside towns of the north Cornwall coast. It covers six and a half acres and has grass pitches in scenic setting with plenty of room around to play. Dogs wanting to play too? There's no dedicated walkies area on site but the recreation field five minutes away is a fine romping spot.
The cosy and friendly traditional pub-style bar, with conservatory, terrace and food menu, is one of the main highlights of this family-friendly site; another is the heated outdoor pool, handsomely set among trees, shrubs and green countryside. Other facilities include a play area and wifi.
For tips on where to start when diving into all the attractions and sights of Cornwall, tourist info and discount vouchers are available in reception.
Also on site are amenity blocks with individual showers and family bathrooms; a launderette and a washing-up area.
Please note that the bar has limited opening hours outside high season.

Local attractions
If you've come to Cornwall to surf, you're in the right spot. Newquay, less than five miles away, is one of the best-known surf beaches in Britain, home to surf schools and kit hire shops as well as the famed Boardmasters festival, held every year in August.
If you're here with kids, try the Camel Trail, a flat, family-friendly bike and walking path running for 18 miles of mostly traffic-free cycling along an old railway track and the Camel Estuary. Bike hire for all ages, including bike buggies, is along the route.
Also around for kids is Dairyland Farm World, the award-winning park just outside Newquay; Camel Creek Adventure Park, about 10 miles away at Wadebridge, and the Flambards Experience, about an hour's drive down in Cornwall's south near Helston. If you fancy one of Cornwall's biggest and most famed attractions, the Eden Project is about 13 miles away from Trekenning.
Among the many (many many) other things to see and do are having award-winning fish and chips at Padstow, more surfing at Watergate Bay, pondering on the splendours of the Lost Gardens of Heligan, or the tors and hikes of Bodmin Moor.

Hi Anonymous,
We are aware of the booking that this relates too, the pitch you had booked was a grass pitch and the slope is extremely minimal. We are unfortunately unable to do much in relation to sinking on pitches when the weather is bad, despite being a grass pitch this is not a common occurrence at this park so I am surprised to hear that you have had this issue.
I am also aware that you had only booked & paid for 2 nights not 3 nights as stated in your review. I feel that your review is excessively harsh, the parks location is close to all amenities, we offer many different facilities ourselves but alternatively there are plenty of options available for days out and places to eat all within a roughly 15 minute drive.
I feel our park provides holiday makers with a fantastic spot to lay as a base and enjoy the beauty of Cornwall, we are also reasonably priced so I am very disappointed to see that you felt that we do not offer value for money.
We have an onsite Bar, Toilet and Shower Block, Cafe, Children's outdoor play area, heated pool and heated child's pool and a Launderette, all of which are open, so I am unsure what other facilities you were expecting to provide us with a 1 star rating on Facilities.
You also did not ask for or request WIFI so to provide us with a low rating on a facility you did not ask for seems unnecessary and unfair,
Most of our information about our pitches and our site is available here on Pitchup, however we have more information available on our website www.trekenning.co.uk
I am sorry you did not enjoy your stay on this occasion,
Kind Regards,
Christina Manning
