Modern Skate-Bowl
The Skate Bowl is a dynamic, all-level facility designed for skaters of every ability — from beginners finding their balance to advanced riders honing their skills.
This purpose-built terrain features deep bowls up to 2.13m, kerbs, ledges, grinding blocks, and street-style elements around the edges. The layout ensures beginner-friendly features are placed safely around the perimeter, while more advanced challenges are located at the heart of the bowl, offering a thrilling core for experienced skaters.
As the flagship skate park for Penwith, it’s more than a local space — it’s a destination that encourages progression, practice, and community in equal measure.
Family Playground
The Family Playground is a safe, enclosed space designed for fun, laughter, and making memories. Set within a gated, dog-free zone, this grassed area offers a peaceful spot for families to relax while little ones play.
The playground features a variety of classic and adventurous equipment including climbing frames, tunnels, a roundabout, swings, slides, and a toddler-friendly rocking horse. Parents and carers can unwind at the picnic benches dotted around the area, making it perfect for sunny afternoons and snack breaks.
Whether it’s your toddler’s first go on the slide or your older child tackling the climbing frame, this is a space where children of all ages can play safely and freely.
