  • Small, family-owned and -run park in a central location in Cornwall
  • Portreath sandy beach five minutes' drive; Porthtowan beach 10 minutes
  • In a wooded valley, with barbecue slabs, a play area and a games room
Tucked into the Tolskithy Valley, Tehidy Holiday Park is a small, independent and family-owned park with a sustainable focus. It's got a nice and central location, within a short drive of the sandy beaches of Portreath (five minutes) and Porthtowan (10 minutes), and with countryside all around. The scenic wooded valley is just outside of Illogan, so restaurants and convenience stores are a 20-minute walk away, too. On this relaxing green site, barbecue slabs and picnic benches are dotted all around, and there's a play area and an orchard along with a log-cabin games room with pool tables and TV. Grab your essentials and afternoon drinks from the on-site shop and off-licence. The park has been carefully designed to blend into its woodland setting, and is a wildlife haven; take the woodland walk to spot some local species (which is also, handily, a shortcut to the local pub too). More on that location, for it is just so handy: Tehidy Holiday Park is a 20-minute drive from the long sands at The Towans, 25 minutes from arty St Ives and not all that far from Falmouth (35 minutes) and the Trelissick Garden (half an hour) if you fancy a trip down to the south coast.

Local attractions

All the main highlights of Cornwall are easy to get to from here: Tehidy is between St Agnes and St Ives, and a half-hour drive will take you to famous Cornish landmarks Land’s End (50 minutes) and the island of St Michael’s Mount (half an hour). The Lost Gardens of Heligan and the Eden Project are both within a 45-minute drive of the site, too. The closest beach to Tehidy is Portreath: there’s a valley walk from the park via the village following the stream through the bluebell woods – look out for kingfishers on the way. It's popular with surfers and bodyboarders, with more surfing and watersports nearby at Godrevy (20 minutes), Porthtowan beach (10 minutes) and the Cornish surfing mecca of Newquay (half an hour). If you’ve yet to don a wetsuit, there are plenty of surf schools in the area to show you the ropes. Staying on land, golfers can hone their swing at one of four local golf courses, and there are miles of woodland walks at Tehidy Country Park (10 minutes). This area of Cornwall is full of mining heritage, with Tehidy in the middle of the Cornish Mining World Heritage Site and the National Trust’s Cornish Mines and Engines site nearby.
