Pentire is one of the Cornwall parks in the Park Holidays UK collection, at Newquay.
Pentire is at Newquay, on the headland above the Gannel estuary, which puts you within walking distance of some of the best-known beaches in the country.
Newquay is the busiest resort in Cornwall, and that cuts both ways: everything is open, and everything is busy.
A local day out: Fistral Beach
The surfing beach in Britain, and the one that made Newquay's name. Even if nobody in your party intends to get in the water, the surf schools, the competitions and the Atlantic rolling in are the show. Lifeguarded in season, which matters here.
Also within reach
- Blue Reef Aquarium — On Towan Beach, with an underwater walkthrough tunnel.
- Newquay Zoo — In Trenance Gardens, compact and well suited to younger children.
- The Gannel estuary — Tidal footbridges and quiet sand, a world away from the town beaches.
Book a break at Pentire
