Things to do on site and in the Newquay area
Guests do not need to leave the estate, with its historic woodland to explore, take a peaceful stroll and spot some of the incredible wildlife that has made its home in the woodland or let the children make dens whilst you relax back at your yurt. The grounds also have a heritage of the Cornish mining industry, be sure to explore!
Host your group dinner on the sun terrace with the communal BBQ, or for large groups hire the site to cook your meal to give you a night off! Unwind in the Cowshed in front of the TV on the comfy sofas or get your competitive side out with some games.
