Terry Sandling bought Trelow Farm in Tredinnick and opened the property to the public in 1989 as The Shire Horse Centre. The property was then sold to Crealy Great Adventure Parks in 2004, and was branded as Cornwall's Crealy. Following an acquisition in 2015, John Broome CBE purchased Cornwall's Crealy and rebranded it as Camel Creek Adventure Park.[2] It was then bought by Royale Life and is now known as Camel Creek Family Theme Park.

The park also has an Indoor soft play area (Creeky's playhouse), Swamp Busters, Animal areas as well as seasonal attractions such as a haunted house at Halloween and Santa's Grotto at Christmas.
Future
At the same time as purchasing the park, John Broome also purchased nearly 200 acres (81 ha) of land adjacent to it and announced his plans to turn Camel Creek Adventure park into a six-star resort, the first in the UK. The plans would have created 955 jobs in and around a holiday and leisure park with 236 holiday homes. There would have also been a convention centre and amenities such as a restaurant, pub and shops. After the council granted permission for the project in October 2016, work was planned to complete in 2022 with construction reducing season times, opening hours and ride availability of Camel Creek. Although minimal progress is being made to the project, and with the plans being scaled back, Royale Life plan to continue with the expansion.
