  • 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

A lovely, family spot with a grand buzz and loads for the kids, from a cracking pool to top entertainment. Staff are sound, and most say the place is spotless. A few grumbles about noise at night, busy spells and the cost of extras and WiFi.

Electric grass pitch

Liked The arcade and evening entertainment was decent enough.

Disliked The food was overpriced and barely edible. The drinks were overpriced £15 for two drinks. Throughout the day there was nothing to do. No inside pool like it was advertised only an outside pool that was slightly heated. A park area that was half broken the whole time we were there. Just wasn't enjoyable at all. The bathrooms were freezing, so if managed to have a hot shower you were then shivering while getting dry and dressed. We were told we couldn't even use our bbqs or gas stoves so we had to eat at the restaurant.

Liked Facilities easy to find.
Great customer service at check in.
Large pitch size
Choice of food outlets and shop, whilst not cheap, a lot more affordable than some sites.
Pool was good and warm.
Showers and toilets clean and well marked.

Disliked More a suggestion - lots on bikes, which is lovely to see, so might be good to have cycle routes and lanes on site so safer movement for pedestrians and cars.

Ben H. 1 review

Electric hardstanding and grass pitch (premium)

Liked Pool area was nice.

Pitch was big and spacious.

One of the receptionist was lovely when we arrived but I get the impression the have a lot of summer temps as expected for the season and as such we were given contradictory information my different staff members.

Outside space is clean and well kept.

Disliked The facilities are awfully dirty and unkept based on those we experienced.

The porcelain floor tiles on the terrace where you can look at the pool is filthy and clearly hasn’t been mopped in weeks.

The shop is expensive for the quality

Electric grass pitch

Liked Campsite was lovely clean with flowers all over

Disliked Toilet were dirty during night time it was cleaned but sadly on evening was toilet paper all over and dirty floors in shower parts .

Pool we got one session because people were greedy and the band system it took me one time to guess. People are knowing when the bands are being used and not handing them back and putting them on and walking through reception area of pool without names being asked. Maybe staff can have some brain cells and count the bands in evening and replace what are missing and also ask for names (as they are not booked) also do a different band for those who are not swimming? As there was 8 people who weren’t swimming so then that’s two families who can go in (as seen these sitting in the bar balcony with bands on watching families) also busy times lower the session available to make it fair. Your booking system does not work and from one session I figured a lot out so confused how this hasn’t been managed. I’d actually like a refund of the % that’s paid towards pool too as that was main reason we came! I would of stayed again if staff actually did what they promised to do not a very promising communication shame really as perfect park

Liked The whole set up is great for families with all ages of children. On site facilities are great and clean.

Disliked Having to book swimming times and limited to the amaount of days you can book is a negative. The prices of the groceries in the store far too high

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.
