The Park is situated just outside Lanivet village, the centre of Cornwall, so central for all of Cornwall’s greatest tourist attractions and between the beaches and coves on both the North and South coast , the nearest being just 8 miles away. The great north coast surfing beaches of Newquay and Perranporth are only 25mins drive from Mena.
The park is just four miles from The Eden Project and the National Trust’s fantastic Lanhydrock House & Gardens are three miles from our gate.
Overlooking our park is Helman Torr, a Neolithic hill fort site, one of the highest points on Bodmin moor. It is part of the Saints Way, which runs within 500 metres of the gate to the park.
The nearby Camel Trail offers good cycling and walking on a track created from the old railway. It runs from Padstow to Poley’s Bridge up on Bodmin moor, and connects with the Camelford Way.
