General
- Family-run holiday park right by the beach in Hayle, with sea views
- St Ives and St Michael’s Mount both within a 20-minute drive
- Heated outdoor pool, games room and family restaurant/bar on site
Staying right by the beach in Cornwall… that’s something of a holiday dream, right? There’s a way to make it a reality, though – and that’s to pick a pitch at Beachside Holiday Park.
As the name suggests, this family-friendly site is right next to the beach, tucked away among the sand dunes of St Ives Bay. It’s a lovely spot for family holidays on Hayle beach, and there’s a surf shop a couple of minutes’ walk away if you fancy learning the art of standing up on water.
This park has been family run for more than 60 years, and over that time the owners have learnt a thing or two about what makes Cornwall holidays tick. It isn’t a place that relies purely on its stunning coastal location to attract guests – it’s also got a fine collection of facilities. These include a heated outdoor swimming pool (open May to September), an adventure playground, a games room and a fast wifi connection to help you plan days out/send pics to your jealous pals back home.
There’s a food shop on site if you’d like to do self-catering suppers (and barbecues are allowed too). Otherwise, make for Coast restaurant/bar, which serves up a range of food and drinks throughout the day and has a glorious sea-view terrace. And if you like the sound of a relaxed alfresco pint or two, the Dune bar overlooks the beach (opening times vary seasonally).

Local attractions
Hayle beach may be right on your doorstep for sandcastle building and surfing adventures, but there are other spectacular St Ives Bay beaches to try out too. Gwithian Towans (10 minutes’ drive) is another spot popular with surfers and kite surfers, while sheltered Carbis Bay (15 minutes) has calm waters suitable for swimmers and paddleboarders.
If the kids ever tire of the sea and sand, Paradise Park Wildlife Sanctuary (10 minutes) should keep them enthralled with otter pups, chatty parrots and raptor displays. Helston Railway (20 minutes) fits the bill for quiet afternoons out, offering a short circular potter through pretty Cornish countryside on a steam train.
For all things arty, head for the cute seaside town of St Ives (20 minutes) for ever-changing exhibitions of contemporary art at Tate St Ives and vast abstract sculptures at the Barbara Hepworth Museum. It’s an adventure all of its own getting to St Michael’s Mount (20 minutes) across the tidal causeway, but well worth it to admire the cliffside gardens and tour the castle full of historic bits and bobs like Napoleon’s coat.
