Overview of Monkey Tree Holiday Park

Monkey Tree Holiday Park is located just outside Newquay in North Cornwall, around 3 miles from the town centre and positioned off the A392, which connects directly to the A30. This means you can reach Newquay’s beaches such as Fistral and Watergate Bay in around 5 to 10 minutes, without needing to drive through smaller coastal roads.

The park is a large site with caravans, lodges and touring pitches spread across multiple areas, but most of the daytime activity is concentrated around the central facilities zone rather than across the whole park. This is where the pool complex, food outlets and main activity spaces are located, so movement during the day is focused in one section rather than evenly distributed.

The outdoor water park is built around a single slide tower, with multiple flumes starting from the same raised platform and running into the main pool. This keeps all slide activity in one place, with a steady flow of people moving between the tower and the pool throughout the day. Alongside this, there is a separate splash play area with tipping buckets, spray features and shallow water sections, positioned so younger children use a different space to those coming off the slides.

An indoor heated pool sits within the main complex and is used as an alternative when the outdoor area is not in use. Both pool areas are positioned close to each other within the same central zone, so you are not moving across the park between facilities.

Around the pool area, there is open space for seating and circulation, and this becomes the busiest part of the park during the day, particularly in peak season when most guests are using the water park at the same time.

Other activities on site include a multi sports court, outdoor play areas and an arcade, all located within or close to the same central section. The park runs a structured activity programme during peak periods, so activity is scheduled rather than ad hoc.

Food and drink is based around the main restaurant and bar, which sits within the central area alongside takeaway options and a shop. This keeps most evening activity in the same part of the park as the daytime use.

Newquay is around 3 miles away, giving access to multiple beaches, supermarkets and town facilities. The A30 is within a few minutes’ drive, so you can reach other parts of Cornwall without routing through Newquay itself.

This park suits families who want most of their time focused around one central area, with a water park that becomes the main feature of the day rather than one of several smaller activities.
