Great location but glad we were there out of season as the facilities must get really busy when the site is full. Also, the showers had an annoying habit of intermittently running very hot, then cold.

Next door to airport, felt impersonal, no free WIFI, electricity for hair dryer costs 1 quid extra.

Unfortunately, weather wasn't on our side, so first few nights were very, very windy and rainy. We were saved by moving into one of their lovely pods! Location, staff, facilities were all great and would definitely return again.

Only small gripes were the opening hours of the staffed facilities. Otherwise, a really well presented, equipped and friendly campsite!

The site was excellent but had just two slight issues. The Wi-Fi connectivity was very poor. Also getting TV signal was hit and miss.
Clean and tidy with good facilities

We travel three weeks in every month of the year with our Buccaneer Cruiser and only stay on fully serviced pitches. Watergate Bay Touring Park is absolutely spotlessly clean everywhere. The toilets and showers are 5 star, ideal for couples and especially young families with an indoor swimming pool and large playground facilities. There is a shop for essentials and a huge club bar which serves food on a daily basis. The staff are very pleasant and helpful and maintain the site to very high standards. We will definitely be returning to Watergate Bay Touring Park.
Great stay

Great location, friendly staff and the cleanest site with new toilet blocks. Lovely warm pool - recommend the family pod as plenty of space.
Just amazing!

Great location, just a 10 min walk down the coast path to Watergate (quite steep). Pitches were great, staff friendly and loos always clean. Nice hot showers too!
Convenient distance from great places to eat

The pros were that the site is a good value, excellent site. Good sized pitches. Good, clean amenities. Plenty of showers and toilets. Club house, bar, food, shop, swimming pool, kiddies play area. However, there is an airport close by. This means some noise disturbance from aircraft, mainly from landing during the daytime hours. No night-time flights. Good plane spotting site. Open site without much shelter, so can be breezy. Overall, a good place for a camping holiday, being in a location suitable for day trips out. Convenient for Eden Project and local Newquay surfing beaches. Good family park.

Clean site with good toilet/shower facilities. Staff were very friendly. Pitch excellent but pricey for lack of open facilities. Would have expected to pay this for higher season when things were open. Only the pool was open. Only stayed 3 nights as the weather was exceptionally bad. Apparently, it is a very windy site in normal conditions, probably due to it being high up and open on a hill. Short walk to the beach albeit down a very busy road. However, we hadn't seen that it is directly next to the airport. Had I known Newquay even had an airport I wouldn't have booked this site as we found the planes landing above our heads very unnerving.
Excellent service and a really great time

Lovely and clean site. Great facilities. Staff were friendly and helpful. It was quite a way to the beach. We felt it was longer than advertised. Would recommend and stay again.

This site is lovely. The staff are really helpful and very friendly. Facilities superb and 10/10 for cleanliness. Bus stop right outside of site, which was really handy for exploring the surrounding area. The bar was spacious and the staff were great too. I would recommend to friends and family and would definitely return. The beaches in the area are absolutely lovely and it was a pleasant walk along the coast path to Watergate bay beach. And, of course, the weather being great helped enormously. Brilliant stay.

Lovely place, ideally situated for exploring the local areas. You are under the flight path, but that didn't bother us and they're mainly only during the day. Toilet and shower blocks clean and well serviced. Play area, bar and cafe. All family friendly. Excellent dog walk area with plenty of bins. Cafe/bar was also dog friendly. A quiet site that's suited to couples or families. We stayed as a couple with a dog. Felt very safe and clean. The security gate was a bit of a pain getting back in after 7pm, it never recognised our car reg so had to go into the bar for the code to the gate (which changes daily). However this hasn't put us off. We are going to book to go back next year with our children.
Wonderful Watergate

We stayed for 2 nights on what was probably the worst weather weekend of the summer! I phoned ahead to check the conditions at the site and the staff were friendly and reassuring, and even tried to arrange a more sheltered spot on the site for us. On arrival we were warmly welcomed, and every member of staff I met was helpful and happy. The site was really clean and tidy and had everything we needed. It's a beautiful walk down the coast path to the beach, and only a short drive into Newquay. Would absolutely recommend and happily come back to this site.
Lovely time

My partner and I camped here for 3 nights and absolutely loved it. Very clean and tidy site with great facilities, friendly staff and amazing views! Only a 15 minute walk to the beach along the coastal path (great spot to watch the sunset), a 10 minute drive into Newquay town and a 5 minute drive into Mawgan Porth. We’re definitely going to book again for next year :)
Ideal location for visiting round and about

The food in the restaurant was reasonably priced Children loved the arcade and the outdoor play area was a big hit. Shower blocks, toilets and swimming pool area could be cleaned on a more regular basis. Site didn't seem very busy, but these facilities weren't very clean each time we used them. I don't recall seeing anywhere about it being a cashless site prior to arrival, unless I missed this on their website. But something to note before arriving.
Good, but not for us

The park was very clean and well organised. Hair raising walk to beach. Unreliable bus service with early last buses. Taxis must be booked day before to ensure you don't get stranded. Staff friendly enough but not helpful.

It's a lovely park. The pitches are so flat, which is excellent. The staff were friendly and helpful. Being a family park there was no issue with noisy campers or such. We did struggle to sleep as there are some powerful lampposts that just kept us lit up all night long, and the bathrooms could use some updating. We took a baby with us, so it would have been nice to know about the family bathroom before as penultimate day, as I really struggled. It would also be nice to not charge £2 a day for this bathroom, but instead just offer it to families of babies/young children who need the facilities as an added bonus service. Having said that, we'd stay again for sure.
Ideal spot to visit Cornwall
