Families, couples & dogs are all welcome here at The View at Watergate Bay. Our small camp site is in a stunning location on the North Coast of Cornwall, looking out across the vast expanse of Atlantic Ocean & along the beautiful, rugged coastline towards Newquay, the popular seaside town which is just 4 miles away.

Here you have the advantage of staying on a small and peaceful campsite with all the facilities at Watergate Bay Touring Park, just 300 along a quiet lane, available for you to use: Indoor Heated Swimming Pool, Skate Park, Tennis Courts (for a small fee), Pirate Ship Adventure Play Area, Mini Bus to The Beach (during peak times only), The Cribbar with free nightly entertainment (during peak times only), Large Shop, Games Room, Dog Exercise Field & Overnight Arrivals Field.

If you're looking for a well looked after campsite with generous, level grass pitches & clean facilities that is close to one of the best beaches in Cornwall, look no further.

Watergate Bay is a fantastic holiday destination. There are two miles of dog friendly sand at low tide, as well as rock pools & caves for the kids to explore. The RNLI patrol the beach during the summer, making it a safe place to swim & surf or body-board some of the best sets in Britain.

Even during peak times, due to the size and shape of the site as well as the generous size of the pitches, it never feels too busy. The site is surrounded by fields & the ocean, so offers a wonderful feeling of space all around you.

A perfect little site

Spicer, Colin - 23/07/2024

Can't fault The View at all! A lovely small site but with the facilities of the larger sister site 200 yards up the road. The site itself is clean and well kept, We were woken most mornings by the lawn mower! (We rise very late! 😄) All staff are as friendly and helpful as you could wish for, And the view, across Watergate Bay to Newquay, is magical, especially at sunset.The Cafe/Bar is welcoming and busy and the shop is well stocked. The pastries (fresh daily) are a pleasant alternative to cookimg.All in all, a great break and we will be back!

Perfect view

Scott, Jackie - 21/07/2024

The view from the site across to Newquay creates a luxurious feel to the site which offers excellent facilities which are maintained to a high level of cleanliness. Staff are friendly and helpful when needed but not intrusive. The on site shop and cafe are helpful to support the of staying local. Extra large pitches are great for family luxurious camping and now include a hard standing to the rear with wooden picnic bench as well as private water supply and electricity.A short walk down the lane provides access to the coastal path down to Watergate Bay. Bring your walking boots if wanting to follow the coastal path north or south, spectacular views are on offer in both directions.The nearby Newquay airport allows an excellent view or aeroplane coming into land and taking off which adds to interest during quiet times on site.All in all the park is excellent for couples or families of all ages and is highly recommended.

Cornish Weekend

Marshall, Paul - 19/07/2024

We've stayed at the View around 4 times now. The facilities are always spotless and the staff friendly.The location is spotless with an easy walk into Watergate Bay and more challenging ones to Mawgan Port and Newquay via Watergate Bay.We enjoy dining at the beach hut in Watergate bay and having a few drinks at Wax Bar. The pub at Mawgan Porth, the Merrymoor Inn is also worth a visit.The sister holiday park also has a bar where drinks are Wetherspoon eque in price, only a few hundred metres down the road.If you like beaches and surfing/body boarding what's not to like!
