About the site


With something for all ages, this Cornwall holiday park is ideal for a family getaway. Onsite, you can enjoy great sea views and facilities such as a swimming pool, arcade, play park, shop, restaurant, seasonal kids club and evening entertainment! For tents and trailer tents, there are 8m x 6m grass pitches, some with 16 amp electric hook ups. If you want extra space, there are larger 8m x 10m pitches too. Caravans, campervans and motorhomes can pitch up on half hardstanding and half grass pitches with 16 amp hook ups. These measure 8m x 6m, including space for awnings and cars. Or, if you want a more luxurious stay, opt for one of the camping pods or safari tents. The camping pods sleep four across two bedrooms, one with a double bed and the other with twin beds. They have private balconies, a storage chest, a heater, electric lighting, power sockets and a BBQ. Bed linen is included. Sorry, no pets. All of the safari tents include a spacious living and dining area, with an equipped kitchen featuring a sink, fridge and hob. The Comet tents sleep up to five, with a double bedroom and a triple bunk room with a double bed and a single bunk. Bedding and linen are all provided. Some of the other safari tents feature private bathrooms, with options sleeping between four and six guests. A range of static caravans are for hire too. In the evening, guests can head to Chef's Corner Restaurant for a tasty meal, with Drifters Bar available to enjoy a drink afterwards. Or, if you would rather unwind at your pitch, raised BBQs are permitted. Dogs can join you for your stay, with up to two canine companions allowed per camping or touring pitch. There is even a designated field for dog walks! Please note that some of the pitches may be sloping, due to the site's hilly location.

Widemouth Bay Caravan Park is open from 06/03 to 31/10. Pitches from £12/night for 2 people.

Large Tent - Electric Grass Tent PitchesAug 2025

What a wonderful place surrounded by amazing walks and amazing towns within a short drive. Upon booking, I didn't realise how much of an incline there would be on the pitch and this did cause some issues with things falling over and sleeping etc. We also felt that the toilet/block was too far away from the top field. There definitely needs to be some sort of toilet facilities at the top. That we be the only thing we would change, staff are lovely and so accommodating and we would return if we could have a flatter pitch. It felt safe when leaving the tent and also safe for the children to play so all in all, a great site.

Large Tent - Electric Grass Tent PitchesAug 2025

Lovely park setting. Loved the food and the lounge, entertainment area. Unfortunately, the swimming pool is breeding bacteria. It doesn't cost anything to clean areas properly. I didn't want to hold onto the sides as it was too dirty. Changing rooms very poorly kept. It's a shame as felt could go in again. The lockers were rusted and we were told and could see that they couldn't be used. Changing rooms were just awful. We were camping and the toilets weren't clean enough. There was ground in dirt not just daily. They need a serious deep clean. Didn't want to use the showers in the building. The new static bathrooms were much better thankfully. They could do with a better ventilation system as you can see when you walk in especially when the showers are going, even with the windows open!

Large Tent - Non Electric Grass Tent PitchesAug 2025

Good value for money and would stay again. Areas that could be improved. Cleanliness of toilets and showers. Possible additional toilet for Finch field. We had a sloping pitch and managed, but any longer than a weekend, this could be annoying.
