  • On the Roseland Peninsula three miles from the Lost Gardens at Heligan
  • Spectacular sea views, all a short walk from the beach
  • Sun loungers, large play areas and coffee lounge on site
Just look at that beach… Seaview Gorran Haven Holiday Park is at the start of the Roseland Peninsula on Cornwall's south coast, surrounded by a patchwork of fields and the blue sea. It's a short stroll from spectacular sands and in a stunningly scenic park with colourful flowers and views over the ocean and nearby Dodman Point. Seaview is centrally set for heaps of attractions including the South West Coast Path, the Lost Gardens of Heligan and the Eden Project, about 20 minutes' walk from its nearest beach, easily reachable by foot. St Austell is the closest big town, about 20 minutes' drive away. A heated outdoor pool and small paddling pool (both open in high season only) are among the excellently kept modern facilities at Seaview, both with plenty of sun loungers alongside on the sun terrace. Kids have a play area with swings and slides, as well as loads of room to run around at the park's big games areas. There is also a secure dog-walking area where pups can run free, and a coffee lounge in the Chapel reception area where you can relax with a hot drink.

Fully-serviced hardstanding and grass pitch

Liked: We stayed in our camper and and had a small tent at the side. There was plenty of room for both. We had pitch 25 and this was perfectly situated near the toilets, shower block and kitchen, which might I add had a microwave kettle toaster and washing machine and tumble dryer, lovely addition as tea and toast in the morning was a breeze. The showers and toilets were very nice with no complaints. The site was well kept and peaceful. The staff at reception were very lovely and the coffee area with the veranda at the back over looking the outdoor pool and the stunning view was delightful. Can’t wait to return.

Fully-serviced hardstanding and grass pitch

Liked: Pitch was lovely, both hardstanding and grass and fully serviced. Laurel hedges between pitches gave good privacy. Toilets and showers were like "en suite" being in one room which was very handy. Staff were amazing, especially as we had vehicle trouble and they gave us garage numbers to try and taxi numbers in case we needed them. Reception was beautiful with coffee lounge and also gym and swimming pool. Amenities for a much more expensive site! We thoroughly enjoyed our week there and will definitely return. Thank you all.

Disliked: Shop could maybe have had bit more basic groceries, but local shop wasn't far away.

Fully-serviced hardstanding and grass pitch

Liked: Not overcrowded pitches, hedges around pitches, enclosed dog area, wifi, facilities close by, liked shower and toilet all in own room. Reception area lovely! Walk (steep) down to Hemmick beach which is stunning.

Disliked: Facilities are great but could benefit from an upgrade. Personal preference that we do not like shower curtains but not an issue. Couldn't change temp on showers, they get lovely and hot, which is perfect for us but got a little too hot for our young child.

Fully-serviced hardstanding and grass pitch

Liked: Great facilities including washer, dryer which really helped with the rain. Toaster, kettle and cooker available for guests to use as well. Individual shower cubicles which were spacious and water hot. Really great location, just a 20 minute walked down to the beach, great for a morning swim. Pool was cold water but still refreshing and great to use. WiFi reached the pitches near shower block as well.

Fully-serviced hardstanding and grass pitch

Liked: space between the vans, walks from the site, swimming pool, dog walk.

Disliked: toilet facilities, no hand dryer in any toilet. The bathroom and shower were combined and not many of them, would not like to be there when it was busy. The facilities were cleaned every day but so many cracked tiles and insects they always seemed dirty.

Route directions

From St Austell, take the B3273 towards Mevagissey for approximately three miles, at the top of the steep hill, turn right signposted to The Lost Gardens of Heligan and Seaview International. Follow this road and turn for the yellow Seaview Lodges sign. If you are using a GPS or satnav device then do not carry straight on at the top of the hill as this will take you into the centre of Mevagissey where the streets are extremely narrow and often blocked. Please turn right at the top.

Local attractions

Seaview is close to the South West Coast Path – and sands – of Restormel, a top spot for cyclists and walkers, and among the coves, safe clean beaches and jaw-droppingly scenic coast of the beaut Roseland Peninsula. St Mawes and St Just are both within easy reach; access sailing, fishing boat hire and kayaking nearby at Mevagissey. Famed Cornish options close by are the Lost Gardens of Heligan, three and a half miles away, and the big biomes and the tropical rainforest of the Eden Project, under 10. You could also take a boat trip along the Fal from Falmouth, pedal the Clay Trail for five miles from the Eden Project to Wheal Martyn, or venture determinedly forth for Cornwall's old castles and buildings, including the Caerhays Castle manor house a couple of miles from the site. Kids will surely like the Shipwreck and Heritage Centre, within a short drive at the port of Charlestown, and Flambards theme park and the Crealy Great Adventure Park (about an hour by car). A football golf centre, indoor soft play and the Wingz bird and animal sanctuary are all a few minutes' drive from St Austell. Regattas, carnivals and festivals run throughout Cornwall all year round; ask the Seaview team when you arrive what's going on locally during your hol.
