Trevorrick Farm Cottages - Padstow

A farm might not sound like the most glamorous of places to visit - but words can be deceiving! Located just by one of Cornwall's lovely sandy beaches, the farm not only has great views but it also has plenty to do. Enjoy the scenic local walks, take a dip in the indoor heated pool (or private hot tubs), or wake up early and watch the kids experience giving the animals their morning feed. The luxury cottages provide plenty of free games and books inside, and the outdoors has several different farm-themed play areas, lots of space to run around, and even a trampoline. If you don't feel like venturing out to nearby eateries, you can even take advantage of the self-catering aspect of the cottages.

The Park Cornwall - Mawgan Porth

Forget everything you know about camping, and let us introduce you to the luxury world of glamping.

If you're after something just a little more luxurious, but still want the family camping experience - this is the spot for you. The Park has several swimming pools, a play area, plenty of space to run around in - and is less than 300 yards from the beach if you want to venture down to relax and sunbathe. There's also a restaurant on-site with a fantastic chef, a sauna and steam room, and even little fairy doors around the site that you can try to spot during your stay. You'll be able to choose from a cabin, a cottage, and a lodge - but we'd recommend staying in your very own yurt for a truly unique experience. With its very own little village, the yurts come with log burners, an outdoor fire pit, and a hot tub!
