We were two adults and two teenagers, in a combination of a campervan, awning and tent. We were welcomed in a very friendly manner by the owner and shown to a large pitch. All the pitches adjoin a small road for ease of moving around the site. The site is very well run with the most clean and shiny dishwashing facilities I have ever seen as well as iron and washing machines and clean and shiny showers with endless hot water.
My own personal niggle were the queues of young women in the ladies facilities all trying to straighten hair, apply make-up and beautify themselves at all times of day (I assume in preparation for going into Newquay at night!?). These lovely young women might be an attraction for some readers but was quite annoying if you just wanted two minutes to clean your face before turning in. Some people hogged the dryers and mirrors for 30 minutes each.
There is a bus from outside the site - but get there early as it only seats 30 people. We had a fab driver who said 'well there's lots of traffic, where do you all want to go?!' and then dropped off people at their various locations!
The bar had some varied entertainment from a bitter old comedian who appeared to dislike children, to a great Meatloaf impersonator and our favourite a pub quiz.
The play area looked good as did the pool although we didn't use, and the onsite shop sold basics and ice-creams.
Visited Treloy at end of July. Only booked a couple of days before arriving as was last minute thing. We normally go for the advertised quiet/no entertainment sites. But as we booked late none were free. But I'm so glad we gave Treloy a chance. They provided everything, playground, entertainment, swimming pool, shop, cafe. Although we didn't use the cafe it was nice to know it was there, we didn't go to the entertainment, but we didn't hear it either. (have a feeling it was low key rather than caberet) .
Our pitch was very large and water points were close. The staff were all extremely friendly. The site had everything but at the same time as remaining quiet and quaint. My son loved the recreation field where he could play football or cricket.
The most impressive thing were the showers and toilets there were lots and they were always clean they seemed brand new. I never waited for a shower and as an added bonus hairdryers were supplied although only one worked. Everywhere was kept clean except towards the end of the week the soap ran out in the dispensers. One complaint was that the dog walk area was small and not really somewhere I wanted my dog to run or what I expected. But we took our dog out and about so it wasn't that necessary. Only other complaint was the weather - Seems to be monsoon season in Cornwall during summer holidays. Bet its lovely there in May/June.
Site really close to fab beaches many of which are dog friendly.
We have just returned from a weeks stay at Treloy. It was our first camping trip, and we had a great time! The site is very well organised, and there are plenty of toilets/showers/dish washing facilities. All of the facilities were kept very clean. There is a small shop on site, selling basics at a very reasonable price. Our pitch was a bit on the small side, however our tent was fairly big (Oregon 800). The on site club is quite small, but prices were fair. Staff were friendly.
There is a bus stop directly outside the site, with buses direct into Newquay. Car parking fees in the town are quite expensive (£1.10 per hour), so you can spend a fair amount during your stay. Newquay itself is lovely and the beaches are very clean. You must try the cornish cream teas and fish and chips from Flounders!
There is a Morrisons about 10 mins drive away, but it gets very busy! It is 3 miles into Newquay, and this cost about £10 in a taxi. The site is next to an RAF airbase, but we were never disturbed by any noise.
All in all, despite the weather being awful (torrential rain and gale force winds!), we had a great time, and we have caught the camping bug! We would return to Treloy!
The site is very large and very well maintained. There are clear sections and all the pegs are numbered, they're flexible if you want to move your tent, just ask the guy who runs you up to your site after paying.
All the pitches are in lines and with a hard road, it rained several times whilst we were there but never had any problems with wet underfoot.
The site is a 5 minute drive to central newquay, there's a bus that runs until 2am some nights for 3 quid return that stops outside the site every hour.
There was free use of an iron and 9 wash up spots. The showers were like in a swimming baths with a push button, perfectly adequate and very clean generally.
The campsite has a policy of no same sex groups but they're seemed to be some groups of people who weren't so considerate as others and come friday or saturday night they wouldn't shut up till after 12. All in all it wasn't that bad as other places I've seen for it.
Very cheap, worked out me and the good lady 12quid a night, Bargain.
I would return to this campsite and I would recommend it for those reading this review.
Lovely site, not too big and very family oriented.
The toilet and shower facilities were great - plenty of them and with hooks and seats in the shower cubicles so your stuff didn't get wet. Always clean, with hairdryers provided. Only negative comment would be that the mirrors are set for midgets - there wasn't a single mirror I could see above the chest in!
The dishwashing facilities are indoors - no washing up in gales, and the water was SO hot that you had to add cold - this was a first for me on a campsite, you actually felt like the dishes got properly clean.
Laundry facilities also good - I didn't use the washing machines because they automatically use Persil and Comfort - which is great for convenience, but I am allergic no bio-liquids. However it was handy to have driers, irons and ironing boards.
Son (8) said they play area looked rubbish when we arrived, but both kids ended up loving it - son played on it non-stop and DD (10) 'chilled' with her mates there. It was open till about 10pm which was late enough, and we were glad we weren't camped too close to it.
The evening entertainment was good - and the club room was just the right size, but the site was more than half-empty and you still had to get there early to get a seat, so I reckon in high season it wouldn't be big enough. Still, I wouldn't want it bigger either so a difficult one to call. The drinks seemed very reasonably priced.
Our pitch was large, but we noticed a lot of the pitches were quite narrow - we had heavy rain and no problem with drainage - probably down to the slope on the pitch. We did end up every morning at the 'bottom' of the bed pod!
The site was mostly quiet at night, which was great, but unfortunately on the odd occasion when people were making noise it didn't appear to be policed.
We didn't use the swimming pool, but it looked very nice.
The site is right beside Newquay airport and from the google earth piccies we were a bit worried, but I can honestly say I wasn't bothered once by planes - and I am really the sort of person that would get annoyed if it was a problem.
We were able to get on our pitch at 11am which was fantastic - it wasn't so great having to be off at 10am, with the people moving onto our pitch arriving at 9.40am and being parked next to us - talk about pressure.But I guess you can't have it both ways.
So, we would definitely rate this site, and if going back to the Newquay area would definitely use it again.
The Newquay area was great - parking in Newquay itself is quite busy, but we always managed to get a space in the Sainsburys car park. The council owned beaches charge £5 per day - but you can't move between them. If you want to do this then there is apparently a £35 7-day ticket that allows you to come and go as you please - you have to watch though because some car parks are not the council's e.G. Fistral and Watergate bay. We went to Porth beach in the afternoon (£3 after 2pm) and to Mawgan Porth where its £3 all day.
We went to GoonHilly for the day - I personally thought this was a rip-off. It cost £26 for a family of 4 and advertises 'interactive' exhibits - however the interactive bit is part of an organised bus tour and you only get 8 minutes in the interactive room which if you are on a full bus like we were doesn't even give you enough time to see all the exhibits, never mind have a go. Especially as some parents are content to let their children monopolise the exhibits so the other kids don't get a look in, and seem oblivious to their screaming babies when you are trying to listen to the videos.
We stayed on this site for a week at the end of June, weather was brilliant so made for an enjoyable time.
The campsite was fabulous. I read some of the reviews and decided this was the place for us.
We had a huge pitch with hook-up, and the grass was well drained (it did rain 1 night). All the facilities (toilets, showers, kitchen sinks, washing rooms) were clean, tidy, spacious and there were enough of them to accommodate everyone on the site.
There was a great kids play area.With a new one being constructed. Lovely outdoor pool and lounging area, bar and TV room, small but didn't really need anything bigger. Good take away and small shop with essentials (ie beer and wine!)
Overall was a perfect site, and we could not find any faults. Would definitely return.
This was our third year running that we have stayed there for the bank holiday weekend, only live a few miles away but we like to make this our first camping trip of the year. Staff very friendly and helpful. Pitch with electric was adequate size for us. Toilets and showers clean and plenty of hot water. Handy to have the shop and cafe on site not that we got round to using them. Found having the bus stop right outside very useful, used it everyday to go into Newquay. Hope to go back again next May.
Great Site. Toilets very clean, small shop with the basics, take away/cafe. Heated outdoor pool was lovely, large recreational field for ball games etc. Good children's playground. Close to Newquay, Padstow, Wadebridge. We had the biggest hard standing pitch ever. All in all a really good site.
It was our first family camping trip, the weather wasn't great, but we found the campsite very good, our pitch was opposite the toilet / shower / washing up block. The site was very popular, the staff were lovely, the entertainment was very good, something for the children early evening, then something for everyone later on. We used the laundry room a few times, it was quite easy to use! Although it is an independent site it has everything you could need (even a small shop and cafe / takeaway). It is not far from Newquay or other towns such as Padstow. Fantastic value for money, 100% recommend Treloy tourist park, will hopefully go back next year!
We spent a week at Treloy from the 6th to the 13th August. Due to rain alot of the pitches seemed to be water logged, ours was on a slite slope and seemed to drain well. Our Motorhome is a 6 wheeler and we had no trouble getting to the site, although roads are narrow. Good site for visiting surrounding areas. Toilets and showers very clean, laundry room well equipped,pool was warm and the boys loved it, not much to do on site for young teenagers, games room rather small. The bar was very busy most nights, staff were friendly and entertainment was good. Shop and cafe basic, but there is a Co-op less that 10 minutes away and you are only 3 miles from Newquay. Good for dog owners, the site is very dog friendly (our reason for booking). It is near an RAF base but there was no noise and only the 'odd' plane or helicopter were seen all week! Because the site is dog friendly - yes I would go again.
My wife and myself visited Treloy at the end of May along with the rest of my family for a wedding in Newquay. I really cant fault this site as everyone was very friendly and the facilities were spotless. A very well laid out site with plenty of room. Nice to get discount on the Golf course next door but as we were following their 36 hole club championship the pins were placed in the worst place possible! A very nice 9 hole course though. I would recommend this site without hesitation and would definitely visit again.
My self and my fiancee spent 2 weeks at Treloy during July and August 2007 (the only 2 dry weeks of the summer!) This was the first holiday that we have been on together and I have today sent off our booking for this year.
I cant speak highly enough of Treloy, the site is clean and tidy, the showers and toilets are cleaned twice a day and are modern. I believe these are being expanded for the 2008 season. The staff are always friendly and keen to help. The site is near an RAF base but the noise is minimal. The site is couple and family oriantated so noise on the site was minimal, after 11pm. Only on one occasion did we have a problem when a new couple on the pitch next to us decided to hold a drunken party at 2am and this was dealt with quickly by the manager in the morning and they were very quite from then on.
The site has a small shop which stocks all the everyday basics you'll need, but there is a co-op about 10 mins away by car which has an excellent range of supplies and an ATM, the nearest superstore is Tesco's which is in Truro. There is also a BP just down the road from the co-op. The site is well located, away from all the crowds of Newquay but close enough that anything you could want to visit is within a short drive. We would highly recomend Treloy to anyone looking for a quite break in cornwall!
Had a 'wet' time in August - this is the second time we have been to Treloy.
We liked Treloy, as it has very large pitch sizes, and we all have large tents (Sunncamp Horizon & Antigua), which most sites won't let on (plus gazebos etc.).
They have moved things around a bit this year, and the previous large field at the top (which we had almost on our own last year) has now been divided up. We asked to go up there, but were advised against it. We insisted. We were given a pitch up there. Didn't like it. And were shown the original pitch that they had allocated for us (perhaps we should have listened in the first place!).
Facilities were good as usual. Clean as usual. We tend not to use the club, as it gets very packed and there is nowhere to sit, but with 11 kids between us we'd rather get them off to bed early so we can start off the next morning (security on the site is generally very good, and there isn't much noise after 22:00. The one night there were noisy kids playing footie in the night they were dealt with fairly promptly).
Newquay is great for the beaches, and the kids usually love it. Unfortunately the weather was against us this year and we found it difficult to entertain them 'indoors'.
Will probably go back next year, unless I come to my senses and venture abroad for some sunshine.
Spent 10 days on this site over the last week in August / first week September.
On arrival at 9am in the morning was shown straight to our pitch even though we shouldn't have arrived till lunchtime, and when we found that the pitch was horribly un-level, asked for another pitch and was immediately moved to one directly opposite which was level, so first impressions very good due to flexibility shown by owner.
The site is quite large, but has a cosy feel to it due to the areas being separated by shrubs / trees / fences.
The facilities are ample for the size of the site and are centrally located, the only downside being that they do look a little dated and are in need of a spruce up. The dated look gives the feel of the showers/toilets being dirty, but in fact they are kept clean and tidy.
Site shop is small and very basic, so don't expect to pick up everything you need to knock up a meal. The pool area is clean, pool cold at first as is only slightly heated, and is always surprisingly quiet, although this may be due to the fact that any kids under 15 have to be accompanied.
The surrounding area is packed with things to do, and some of the best beaches that this country has to offer. Of the places we visited, I would especially recommend the Eden project and the Cornish birds of prey centre, both great days out.
In and around Newquay itself, be prepared to pay out loads in parking fees if you use the car.
Eating out around the area is as varied as you can imagine with every type of restaurant that you could ever want or need.
All in all the site may not be the most glamorous in the world, but neither is it the most expensive. Its in a nice area, has all the facilities that you may need, and even the fact that the RAF base is right next door doesn't put me off wanting to return (the little bit of noise that does come from the base isn't in the least bit offensive).
Having spent two weeks here in August I have the following comments: Site owners very friendly and helpful, bit of a problem with drainage, (the site is on quite a slope, and the owners have done their best to address this). We had no problem with aircraft noise, except for the rescue helicopter, and as far as I am concerned if it is needed it has to operate! one day we might need it. OK the showers might need some updating, but there was a planning application posted for an extension to the Ladies shower block, and having spoken to the owner, there are plans to build a shower block at the top of the tent field. It would appear that there has been a new electric and water ring main put in, so I would feel that the owners have looked at previous comments. The clubhouse is friendly and easy going (as is the rest of the site), OK teenagers have a habbit of being quite loud, but we would do well to remember we were that age once, overall they were not a problem, and the site security guard was very good. The local area was very nice, the only problem was that the local pub was a long way away, and the take away doesnt deliver, but the site take away was very good. I would suggest a trip to Mawgan Porth beach during the day and the Mermaid at Porth at night. We will come back here again, and would not hesitate to come with friends.
