Southside Funfair, Arcade & Soft Play

Right on the shores of Bowleaze Cove, Southside Funfair delivers the magic of a classic seaside fairground with a stunning coastal backdrop. Take on the Ghost Train, helter skelter, dodgems, trampolines, or teacups, then head inside for arcade games and soft play.

Whether you’re chasing thrills or nostalgia, it’s a full day of fun for all ages.

Southside Green

Southside Green is the perfect spot to relax with big-screen sports, fresh food, and coastal views. The Shack Bar serves drinks from coffee to cocktails, The Doghouse offers tasty hot dogs and burgers, and The Frostbite takes care of dessert with ice cream, waffles, and milkshakes.

With an outdoor play area in view, you can sit back while the kids play and the waves roll in.

Play Areas

Bowleaze Cove has two outdoor play zones, one beside Southside and another near the shop and main reception. Both offer plenty of space for climbing, sliding, and letting off steam in the fresh sea air. They’re perfect for burning energy before heading to your next adventure.

The Sports Bar houses a fun indoor soft play where little ones can scramble, crawl, and slide whatever the weather. There’s also a soft play area within Southside Funfair, ideal for pairing with an arcade visit or a spin on the rides.

Slow down or keep active. We have facilities for every pace of holiday.

Stories From Our Guests

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.

Stories From Our Guests

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.

Stories From Our Guests

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.
