Electric camping pitch - tencreek holiday park

  • Lively family park five minutes' drive from the coast at Looe
  • Huge range of facilities including cabaret room, bar, diner and café
  • Indoor pool, toddlers' pool, swim lessons, sports room and shop
‘We’re all going on a summer holiday…’ And a spring, autumn and, er, winter one too… At Tencreek Holiday Park, the nearest park to lovely Looe in Cornwall, you and the family can arrive in all seasons as a base for the best of south-east Cornwall and Devon, or just stay on site to spoil yourselves silly with the lashings of facilities and entertainment for all ages. And the views are pretty tenfastic too… Tencreek is aimed at families and couples, and as such has any number of tiptop things to try: a kids’ club just for starters, and an adventure playground and sports pitch for small sorts to whirl around outside. More grownuply, the park also has the Castaway entertainment complex with large cabaret room, bar, Deano’s Diner and indoor sports room with darts and pool; there's also family entertainment every night from the Yellow Coats and Tencreek mascots. Don’t forget the dog either: the park is dog friendly and has a dog walking area with access to the public footpath. If it rains, the kids won’t even notice once you get them to the heated indoor pool and toddlers’ pool, which are also open all year and free to use (there are classes such as Aquafit and kids’ swimming lessons available at a small additional charge). The thoughtful folk at Tencreek have ensured that the pool is always lifeguarded, and there are even adults-only sessions at times, if you can manage to get the kids dried off and packed off for a bit… The park also has a fully-stocked food shop, a café with takeaway and a modern laundry.

What customers say

Well-located site, great for hikers, close to Looe/Polperro. Reviewers loved clean facilities, friendly staff, spacious pitches. Pool, shop, and entertainment were hits, especially with families. Some noted drainage issues, entertainment noise, and occasional shower block cleanliness. Good value, many would return.

Emma L.

Powered grass campsite (maximum 6 metres)

Liked Friendly staff, definitely a credit to the site and lovely setting, beautiful views and it was great how you can walk into Looe. (Mostly up hill on the way back)
Very clean shower block.
Great shop, pool also good.

Disliked Electric hook up was awful!
Constantly tripping out, even when you used one appliance with the heating on. It was very cold on outside, so needed the heating on. Friendly man came to help in a flash, but like he said,
'im not an electrician '
Others around also moaning, and never had a problem before. Also, showers were poor, only lasting 30 seconds, and so close to the wall, not a full shower, half your body at a time job, not the best, as the flow was very average also.
We were sited quite close to the entertainment, and it was very noisy around kicking out time. So ask not to be there if you don't want to be woken up.
So, electrics and showers need investment.

FHU cement/asphalt travel trailer campsite (maximum 8 metres)

Liked Location

Disliked Too many annual pitches. Collapsed awnings lots of debris around vans. Does not give the holiday feel. Such a shame for a lovely sight. Maybe put on the annuals in one area and people coming on holiday in a different area.

Local attractions

Oodles of activities and attractions await once you’ve dragged yourself off site: pootle around Looe’s Harbour Quay, Banjo Pier and the 16th-century Old Guildhall in East Looe, or take a boat to Looe (St George’s) Island, where just once a year on a very low tide it’s possible to stroll to it across the sand. Sea-based sightseers can go from Looe to Fowey and take the ferry to Polruan or Bodinnick and the former house of Daphne du Maurier (Daphne and Rebecca fans can also go ghost hunting at Cornwall’s legendary coaching house at Bodmin Moor, said to be the county’s most famous smuggling inn). Most day trippers take a car for the 12-mile Looe-Fowey journey, but if you’re feeling energetic enough and want to see some stunning coastal scenery, the local South West Coast Path hike goes from West Looe to Polruan via Hannafore, Talland Bay and Polperro. You officially have full permission to get a bus or taxi back…
