Powered concrete slab caravan site

Liked: Friendly staff, clean site and facilities. Large pitches. Central for all tourist places.

Disliked: Restaurant under refurb should be mentioned on site profile. Bus stop down the road but only 2 buses a day, we were left stranded 6 miles away, taxis too busy so lovely couple gave us a ride back to site.

Liked: Good location, friendly staff (Jimmy and Sarah), well stocked shop, clean toilets and showers.

Disliked: Not all toilets were working. Needs a little TLC. We left early but only because of the weather (Very strong winds). We wouldn't stay here again but only because we like to try new sites.

From the manager: Hi thank so so much , sorry the weather was not great , While you was here we did have a issue with blocked toilets which was down to the amount off rain but this was resolved :)

Local attractions

Those who like to stay within walking distance can make merry in St Merryn, just a mile from Atlantic Bays Holiday Park, home to a handful of pubs and restaurants, plus a chippie and various shops. The site staff will be happy to help with restaurant reservations if needed. Gourmets, however, will want to make a beeline for the fishing village of Padstow three miles away, famous for its concentration of Rick Stein eateries and shops, and a pretty place to visit to boot. If you want to take up the 'Seven Bays for Seven Days' challenge, you’ll be ticking off some of Cornwall’s best family beaches, such as Harlyn Bay and Porthcothan Beach, but if the weather’s not up to much, there’s no shortage of fun things to do for all ages in nearby Newquay and beyond. The popular Crealy Great Adventure Park is only a couple of miles away too, and has an huge indoor area for tots to teens on top of all the outdoor thrills and spills.
