  • Family-friendly park 10 minutes' drive from Newquay
  • Covering 56 acres including a dedicated dog area
  • Pool, play zones, clubhouse and fish and chip takeaway
There’ll be plenty of time for monkey business in this family-friendly site… Surrounded by a whopping 56 acres of countryside and a fab place for taking toddlers, Monkey Tree Holiday Park is 10 minutes from Perranporth and its huge open beach, as well as the lively surf centre of Newquay. As you might already (luckily) know, the north coast of Cornwall is tiptop for beaches – Newquay's famed for its world-class waves and heady nightlife, while Perranporth has kayaking and hovercrafting to get adventurously stuck into, and top-notch coastal walks on either side of the beach. Back at base, catch a few pages of your book while the kids splash about in the outdoor heated pool complex… or while they join in with the packed entertainment schedule for juniors (there's a talented in-house entertainment team on hand with a daily kids' club and Funky Monkey putting in a regular appearance). On top of that, a maze of net walkways, slides and ball pools means that younger guests will have plenty to keep them entertained, whatever the weather. Food's sorted with the on-site clubhouse and restaurant, and fish and chip takeaway (fish and chips + seaside = essential). Or fire up the barbecue instead: hit up the camp store for the essentials, or head to the grocery store 10 minutes away.

What customers say

This top-rated, family-friendly campsite boasts clean facilities, ample pitches, and great entertainment. Guests rave about the pool, playgrounds, and staff. While kids' activities and cleanliness are lauded, some mention WiFi woes, noise, and activity costs. Location's good, though a car is handy due to remoteness.

Electric grass pitch

Liked There were plenty of shower/toilet blocks. Plenty of little playgrounds to keep the children busy. It was very safe for the children to play. The pool water was a lovely temperature and plenty of room.

Disliked The pool water was very dirty. Covered in flies and murky. The main playground was closed during our visit with no warning and the trampolines were taken away.

Electric grass pitch (premium)

Liked Stayed on adjoining pitch. Great pitch in terms of space. Not great due to bins. People opening and closing bins all day.

Disliked Shocking amount of showers and toilets. 2 toilets and 3 showers in the block. Constant que out the door. Absolutely ridiculous. I also found it revolting that I then had to wash my hands in a sink someone had just cleaned their teeth in and spat in the sink.

Price of food etc in the shop overpriced daylight robbery and also the price or takeaway food. £23.00 gor two pizzas!! Shocking 😲

Electric grass pitch

Liked It was alright, I've stayed on better camp sites. Started off with a tick on my inner thigh after setting up the tent which freaked me out as I've been camping loads and never had one.
Pool was good, all other activities cost money. Only thing included is swimming and the park. The size looks great though. Lots to do.

Disliked No privacy as tents are packed in.
Facilities like showers are basic and not the best.
Shop very overpriced.
Extra activites such as £4 for 5 minutes on a bouncy castle is crazy.
Absolutely nowhere to sit during childrens entertainment.
No signal on site. Only WiFi at reception.
Very overcrowded.

Electric grass pitch

Liked Everything was absolutely fantastic.
The facilities, the pitch it self was in a superb location, sadly the WiFi didn't reached us,and mobile signal was so weak that we couldn't use the phones, but then again, that is what camping is all about, nature and relaxation from daily routine.
The beaches around wore so close, amazing beaches, views.
The heated swimming pool was brilliant, just amazing.

Disliked Nothing

Recommend to friends Visit again

Would definitely return lovely family site.

Electric grass pitch

Liked Clean pitches nice size, plenty of toilet/shower facilities (cleaned regularly).
Site itself it great for families, lovely heated swimming pool, park area entertainment each day/night, arcade. Site is close to local places too that offer lovely days out.

Disliked Traffic noise but that can't be helped.

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 – or head over to Flambards in Helston (45 minutes) for flumes, rollercoasters and go karting.
