Camel Creek Adventure Park is a super fun adventure park located in Wadebridge, a lovely town in Cornwall, England. It's a great place for families to visit and enjoy exciting rides and attractions.

A Look Back: How Camel Creek Began

The story of Camel Creek Adventure Park started in 1989. A person named Terry Sandling bought a farm called Trelow Farm. He then opened it to the public as The Shire Horse Centre.

Later, in 2004, the property was sold to a company called Crealy Great Adventure Parks. It became known as Cornwall's Crealy.

In 2015, John Broome CBE bought Cornwall's Crealy. He decided to give it a new name: Camel Creek Adventure Park. This is the name we know today!

Exciting Rides and Fun Characters

Camel Creek Adventure Park has many cool rides and attractions for you to enjoy. Some of the major rides include the thrilling 5D Simulator, Morgawr, The Beast, Raging River, and Thunder Falls. These rides offer lots of excitement and splashes!

The park is especially designed for younger children, usually up to six years old. They have special areas and activities just for them.

You can also meet the park's friendly resident characters, Swampy and Dina. They are always ready to say hello and make your visit even more memorable.

The Future of Camel Creek

There are exciting plans for the future of Camel Creek Adventure Park! When John Broome bought the park, he also bought a large piece of land next to it. This land is about 200 acres (81 ha) in size.

He announced plans to turn Camel Creek into a special holiday resort. This resort would be the first of its kind in the UK. The plans include building 236 holiday homes. It will also have a convention centre.

There will be other cool places like restaurants, pubs, and shops. These new additions will create many jobs for people in the area. The local council approved these plans in 2016. The goal is to finish construction by 2022.
