  • Petting corner on site with ponies
  • Easy access to Camel Creek Adventure Park
  • Pool, bar, games room and free hot showers
Ponies! Heaps of things will make your kids’ hearts sing on a stay at long-established and family-run Music Water Touring Park near Padstow in Cornwall, but you can bet that the petting corner on site to nuzzle the noses of snuggly ponies will be any small person’s first melodious stop. (You can then casually inform them – kids, not ponies – that Music Water is within trotting distance of Camel Creek Adventure Park, and we bet they’ll be singing all through the hol.) As befits a park with ponies on it, Music Water has a paddock layout for those to prefer to pitch up in a peaceful countryside setting. Kids can canter off to the play area and games room with pool tables, amusement machines and table tennis; for all sizes, the outdoor pool and family-friendly bar will keep the holiday harmonious. Amenities-wise, guests have access to two shower and toilet blocks with free hot water, a launderette, freezer pack service and an on-site post box (to send home jubilant postcards). Trotting off site, Music Water is a few miles from the coastal walks and sandy beaches of the Atlantic coast of north Cornwall, four miles from Padstow and the Camel Trail, and seven miles from Wadebridge. Newquay – and its zoo – is about eight miles away, and the famed Eden Project about half an hour’s drive. Buy barbecue bits and essentials at the shop a couple of miles away or at the Tesco in Padstow; diners out have stacks of choice from restaurants and pubs in Padstow, Wadebridge, Newquay and St Merryn.

What customers say

This clean, family-friendly campsite boasts spacious sites and a great location. Guests loved the helpful staff, peaceful vibe, and amenities like the pool and games room. While most facilities are well-kept, some are a bit dated, and shower temp/pressure occasionally get mixed reviews. It's cash-only.

Primitive grass tent campsite

Liked Site is very well maintained and run by incredibly friendly people. Camp pitches are lovely, flat with good drainage and space to park your car unless you are pitching a monster of a tent. Definitely a family friendly site - no rowdy/poor behaviour witnessed from any guests, even at night and this was a bank holiday weekend. Perfect for couples or families.

Disliked Slightly dated amenities but this was not a problem as there was everything required for a camping holiday. Be aware there is no tap-to-pay on site, it’s cash only but will accept bank transfers to pay for your stay at the site.

Stephanie J.

Primitive grass tent campsite

Liked The pitch was good, very close to toilet which was great as we have small children. Also close to the park which was good so I could see them from the pitch.
Staff allowed us to charge phones in the bar when our car charger didn’t work. Showers were nice, not too hot or cold.

Disliked The bar and games room was small and dingy. Very remote location for the site. Have to travel to see anything. No walking or cycle paths which you would normally find at a campsite. Not much to stay on site for, but somewhere to rest your head more than anything. Bathrooms could do with being checked more often as there was one paper towel dispenser which was empty 70% of the time due to the campsite being quite full. Also had children running around our tents after 11pm, tripping over the guy ropes and pulling the pegs out the floor.
No signal or WiFi on site.

Powered grass campsite

Liked The site is lovely. Beautifully kept and feels very safe. Kids have plenty of space to play. Pitches are a good size and the onsite bar and games room is a winner. The ponies are a firm favourite too.

Disliked Toilets could do with updating, but clean and functional. Never over crowded.

Local attractions

Beach or theme park? Theme park or beach? Surfing or sailing or fishing or horse riding or golf – or coastal hikes and countryside bikes? If you want to stick close to base, all are available within 10 miles at the most from Music Water Touring Park, with other attractions and towns like Portreath, St Ives and Tintagel also exceedingly reachable on the north coast. The Camel Creek Adventure Park jut outside Wadebridge will probably be the first stop for those on holiday with small adventurers to soar on the rides and peer at the meerkats. Also at Wadebridge, the St Eval Kart Circuit is the biggest kids' circuit in the UK and is suitable for ages three to 16 (adults can roar along the track on their own circuit too). Newquay Zoo and its Blue Reef Aquarium are other popular stops on the ‘kids in Cornwall’ trail, and just outside Newquay farm-mad offspring will milk the day for all it’s worth around the huge indoor play centre, adventure park, critters and maze of award-winning DairyLand Farm World.
