  • Cornwall holiday park with beach access five minutes’ drive from Hayle
  • A 20-minute drive from Tate St Ives
  • Bar, bistro and shop on site, plus a play park and heated indoor pool
Private access to a three-mile sandy beach sound tempting? That's the fabulous feature you’ll get at St Ives Bay Holiday Park, set on sand dunes five minutes’ drive from Hayle in Cornwall. If you’re all piling in for a family holiday, you can spend days building sandcastles, running around on the beach with the kids and cooling off in the sea. Travelling as a couple? You’ll have spectacular sea views across St Ives Bay and you’re almost guaranteed colourful sunsets as a backdrop for romantic twilight strolls on the sand. And when kicking back and enjoying the views is not quite enough for you (and, let’s face it, the kids will want more), how about crazy golf, tennis or the amusement arcades? You can burn off more energy at the surf school or in the heated indoor swimming pool, and there are play areas scattered around the park to wear the kids out properly. With all this going on, make sure you leave time to unwind for a drink at the terrace bar with superb views over the bay and a menu of small, tapas-style snacks – there’s entertainment in the evenings too. Or you may like to make a night of it with the family over a freshly prepared meal at Sands Bistro? Forgotten an important ingredient or need milk for your morning cuppa? There’s a well-stocked independent shop on site that stocks all the essentials, including your daily newspaper.

Electric grass pitch

Liked Having the beach so close is just perfect!
The site feels very safe, and the staff are always there to help as much as they can.
The site is in a perfect location- just a short walk away from a Lidl too!

Disliked Only thing I would recommend to the site, would be to have mops for the shower floors so that everyone can clean their shower after each use- apart from that the cleanliness of the site is great!

Electric grass pitch

Liked Clean large pitches , beautiful views over the dunes and sea .
Didn’t use club house/games room etc as too far from pitch so can’t comment on this.

Disliked Grotty shower block corners haven’t been cleaned for months. no stool only 2 hooks on door. Extremely large site, wasn’t welcoming & don’t get shown to a pitch, it’s all a bit first come first served find it yourself, if you leave the site for the day you then have to try & find another pitch.
Wish I hadn’t booked here.
