  • Family and couples' site within walking distance of Newquay town
  • Owned and run by the same family for over 60 years
  • Pool, fishing ponds, play area, sandpit and shop
Cornwall? Newquay? But of course. Anyone having a hol in Cornwall at any time should pitch up near Newquay at some point: for famed surfing beaches, lively vibe, Newquay Zoo, the Blue Reef Aquarium… and easy access to the rest of the north Cornish coast as well as the beaches down south. And if you're looking for a family base within walking distance of Newquay? Pitch up at popular and friendly Trencreek Holiday Park, owned and run in the quiet village of Trencreek by the same family for over 60 years. This pretty and well-maintained park is a mere mile from Newquay town centre and five minutes' walk away from a regular bus route, passing tennis courts, swimming pools and Newquay Zoo on the way into town. Trencreek is a family and couples-only holiday park, where the family team here make their mission to provide a welcoming vibe and to keep all amenities to spotless standards. Everything's kept secure here: access is by car number plate recognition barriers, so only those booked on site are allowed in. Spend your days lazing by the heated outdoor pool or casting off – for free – in the coarse fishing ponds, or let the kids loose at the play area, sandpit and games room. By night, you could settle down for a barbecue by your pitch: an excellently-stocked shop is on site, a farm shop is within five minutes' walk and a supermarket is a mile away.

Liked Lovely set up. Showers and toilet blocks good and clean. Shame no buses come past anymore. Quite a track to beach. No notice was given until arrival that cash only on site(shop, bar and cafe) . So walk to nearest cash machine 1 mile away.

Liked Wir hatten die Möglichkeit dem Platz weder zu verlassen

Disliked Sanitär Anlage dreckig.
Urinierten Boden, Klo Papier (benutzt) auf dem Boden und in Klo, Waschbecken dreckig, unsere Pitch war in der letzte Ecke, Aussicht 3 Meter hoch dreckiger Mauer Müll inklusive.
Wir haben 3 Tage gebucht und war nach einer halben Stunde wieder weg.
Die Bilder an der Web Seite von pitch up hat nichts mit der Realität zutun, das ist fast arglistige Täuschung.
Kontakt mit pitch würden wir aufnehmen,
Rausgeschmissenes Geld .
Wir müssen einen neuen Platz woanders buchen.

Local attractions

Set off on foot or take the local bus for the mile-long journey into Newquay, one of the most famed spots in all the country for surfing and surf schools as well as the surfing tournaments at Fistral beach. Loads of other Newquay options await if the thought of boards bores you: have a potter around the zoo or aquarium, bask on some of the seven miles of golden sandy beach, or take the Newquay Discovery Trail on a gentle meander through town. The South West Coast Path runs through town too on its 603-mile meander from Minehead to Poole; there's an easy trail of less than a mile to Bedruthan Steps if you want to tackle the path with the kids. Just outside Newquay, Trenance Gardens and Leisure Park is a spectacular spot for a family day out, with Trenance Leisure Park and skate park, a boating lake and pedalo hire, and peaceful times afterwards among the trees, flowers and rose bushes of Trenance Gardens. The park is 10 minutes' walk from Trencreek. For day trips, try Truro (25 minutes' drive), Padstow (30 minutes), the Eden Project (35 minutes) and the National Maritime Museum at Falmouth (50 minutes).
