About Watergate Bay Touring Park

Watergate Bay Touring Park sits just outside Newquay, making it a practical base for exploring Cornwall's dramatic north coast. The site offers an impressive range of pitches – from non-electric grass to premium hardstanding, plus cosy camping pods for those wanting a touch more comfort – while facilities include spotless showers and toilets, an indoor swimming pool, and an on-site shop and restaurant serving good food. Staff earn consistent praise for their friendly, helpful approach.

With over 150 pitches spanning various sizes and service levels, plus dog-friendly options throughout, there's flexibility for most touring needs. The emphasis here is squarely on well-maintained, functional facilities rather than elaborate bells and whistles, which suits campers who value cleanliness and convenience over frills. It's a solid, dependable choice for families or couples wanting to tick off Cornwall's surf beaches, coastal paths and market towns without fuss.

Can’t fault the site but the food seems to have gone down hill since last year. Supposedly hand made burgers they are frozen catering at best. Chips always cold. Food much better in previous years. Not busy but took nearly hour for a pizza and cold chips and a very average over priced platter. Won’t return for food but bar staff are lovely.

Excellent site and facilities. 20 min walk to watergate bay beach. My only gripe is when I booked online I chose a grass pitch 16amp electric. To me this means that the electric is included, it's not, you pay separate for it. Could do with being a bit clearer.

Nice quiet park with a lovely dog walking field. Facilities are very clean. They have a shop & restaurant that has really nice food & friendly staff. It is one of the best touring parks that I have had the pleasure to visit.😁
