Holidays in Cornwall: So much to see and do!

Holidays in Cornwall are all about the sun, the sea and the spectacular coastal scenery! The coast has and continues to be at the centre of life in the county, and in particular for those living along the northern stretch of coastline.

It is an area of breathtaking natural beauty, with dramatic landscapes and stunning seascapes all around. At our holiday park you’re perfectly placed to explore Cornwall in all its glory… put your best foot forward on cliff-top walks, take a relaxing stroll on a long-stretch of golden sandy beach or discover the remote wilderness of Cornwall’s moorland peaks.

 

North Cornwall coast

The North Cornwall coast is also a region full of idyllic fishing towns and villages and picture-postcard destinations that you simply have to visit. From picturesque Port Isaac – where TV’s Doc Martin is set – to the harbour town of Padstow, the home of celebrity chef Rick Stein.

Padstow

Padstow

A holiday on the North Cornwall coast wouldn’t be complete without a visit to the beautiful fishing port of Padstow. Explore the narrow, winding streets and historic harbour - and why not sample some of the finest food and drink while you’re there? Visit one or two of celebrity chef Rick Stein's several eateries in the town, including the renowned Seafood Restaurant close to the harbour.
