1/8

Relaxed site 20 mins' drive from St Austell, close to sandy beaches
Landscaped grounds with pitches screened by greenery
Manicured tennis courts, heated pool and sundeck

It’s all rather smart at Tregarton Park, in the Cornish countryside eight miles from St Austell: beautifully landscaped grounds; pitches screened by mature greenery with gorgeous country or coastal vistas; chocolate box-worthy stone buildings to house the park shop and other facilities; manicured tennis courts, and a comely heated pool and sundeck. Even the dog walking meadow is groomed to perfection... This serene site is ideal for couples or families with younger children, given its relaxed seclusion and proximity to so many of Cornwall's fine safes sandy beaches. There’s a kids' adventure playground, plus pristine essential amenities including excellent disabled facilities, a laundry room and washing-up area. The licensed shop is packed with a vast array of provisions – including the local cider, of course – and tasty takeaway meals are also on the menu.

Local attractions

This area is beachtastic, with no fewer than six fabulous stretches of sand or shingle within four miles of the site: Caerhays (where guests will also find a stunning castle and gardens), unspoiled Gorran Haven harbour, Portmellon, Mevagissey (another cute fishing harbour), Vault Beach (popular with naturists) and Hemmick Beach. Otherwise, Cornwall is jammed with things to see and do, so it all depends how far you want to travel – all of the following are less than an hour from Tregarton… Land's End, the Eden Project and the Lost Gardens of Heligan probably need no introduction, but lesser known attractions such as the Charlestown Shipwreck and Heritage Centre, which exhibits artefacts from over 150 wrecks, also get rave reviews from visitors. For the nippers, there’s farmyard fun to be found at DairyLand Farm World, over 50,000 square feet of all-weather action at Kidzworld, more than 650 birds and animals plus an indoor playbarn at Paradise Park, and squealy great rides at Flambards Theme Park. For shopping, St Austell and Newquay are recommended, and have many other attractions to keep the rest of the family occupied while the retail addict gets their fix.
