At the heart of Tregoad lies one of its most magical features - a series of peaceful lakes and a winding nature trail, where wildlife thrives and every step brings a new discovery. Whether you’re here to unwind beside the water, wander through the valley, or spot something wild with the family, this is a place where holidays slow down and nature takes centre stage.
Tucked into the valley, our wildlife lakes are a haven of calm. Their glassy surfaces reflect the trees above, while ducks and dragonflies drift across the water. This is a place to pause, breathe, and let the quiet of the countryside surround you. Keen anglers can enjoy fishing in these well-stocked lakes, while those simply seeking peace can sit back and soak up the view.
Step away from the everyday and onto our nature trail - a gentle pathway that winds through woodland and countryside. Each turn reveals something different: carpets of wildflowers in summer, rustling leaves in autumn, and birdsong year-round. From here, you’ll feel part of Tregoad’s landscape, with woodland on one side, sweeping valley views on the other, and the distant sparkle of the sea ahead.
Tregoad is alive with wildlife, and the lakes and trails are the best place to see it. Keep an eye on the skies for soaring buzzards, or watch the water’s edge for herons and kingfishers. Along the path, butterflies dance between wildflowers, while ducks and moorhens make themselves at home on the lakes.
Bird and bat boxes invite even more life to flourish, especially during nesting season, when fledglings can sometimes be spotted taking their first flight.
With lodges, cottages, and caravans just a short stroll away, you’re never far from the beauty of Tregoad’s lakes and trails. Whether you prefer an early morning walk before breakfast, a mid-afternoon wander, or an evening by the water as the sun goes down, staying on-park means the great outdoors is right on your doorstep.
The lakes and trail aren’t just for keen walkers or wildlife enthusiasts - they’re for everyone. Little ones will love the sense of discovery and can enjoy the Adventure Rangers session, whilst parents can simply enjoy being together in the fresh Cornish air. It’s a safe, open space where the whole family can unwind, connect, and make lasting memories.
Our wildlife hunt is another wonderful way to explore - children can tick off their nature-spotting lists as they wander, turning every walk into an adventure. With so much variety, there’s always the chance of a magical encounter.
To help you make the most of your adventure, our handy map highlights the winding nature trails and tranquil lakes dotted across Tregoad. Whether you’re seeking a peaceful stroll through wildflowers, a family wildlife hunt, or simply a quiet bench to soak in the views, the map is your guide to hidden corners and must-see spots. It’s the perfect companion for curious explorers of all ages.
Ready to explore? Come and discover the wildlife lakes and nature trail for yourself. With space to relax, landscapes to explore, and wildlife waiting to be found, this is a holiday where nature is part of the experience.

Amazing place. Haven't been to a UK resort for years and things have changed a lot. Loads to do, right on the beach, great accommodation, food and drink places everywhere, clean, organised and just thoroughly enjoyable. If you've got kids and want a UK break, this is the place!
Had a 2 week holiday here, really dog friendly. Staff were wonderful, nothing was too much trouble will definitely go back cannot recommend enough.
Tregoad is an excellent park and worth every penny. We stayed in one of the cottages with two children and our dog. The facilities were fantastic, the new swimming pool is very high quality. All the staff were friendly and helpful and the views were stunning.
A great location. The lodge was to great standard and dog friendly. The hot tub was used everyday.
This really is a beautifully kept park set in a lovely location with views across the hills and out to sea. The staff are so friendly and welcoming and there's such attention to detail, from the very well kept landscaping to little things like the doggy welcome pack in the caravan.
The caravans were clean and the site well kept. The swimming pool was great and both my girls enjoyed it. The soft play and amusements were great too. The entertainment was decent. We have booked for their sister site, Bowleaze for next year, looking forward to that. I would recommend.
Absolutely love it here! There's so much to do for all, a funfair, various arcades, loads of activities, lots of different food and drink places, a swimming pool, gym and spa and right on a beach! The beach boasts scenic views of Weymouth and Portland, and doggies are allowed too!
The Venue is great and the evening entertainment acts were of exceptional quality.
The kids loved everything especially the swimming pool. I would recommend anyone to come here, you’re sure to have a good time.
