You feel that you are in the middle of a tranquil secluded area with the abundance of trees and plants. Ideal for breaks throughout the year and due to the mild climate there is always plenty to do.

The facilities on site are great for families. There is a children’s play area outside and for very young ones, there is a ball pool and soft play area inside. The tennis courts are open all year, pop to reception to get the access code. If you’re feeling energetic there is a gym on site. Near the reception you will find a cafe/bar open from April to end of October . The laundrette is behind the café with coin operated washing machines and tumble dryers.

This part of Cornwall has an abundance of beautiful beaches, National Trust properties and gardens. Cornwall is known for its amazing beaches.

An ideal base to explore the area and for gardening enthusiasts, Trebah and Glendurgan are close by. Falmouth town is 5 minutes’ drive away where you can explore the Maritime Museum, wander the cobbled street looking at the local shops, great for gifts and souvenirs. There is a wide variety of restaurants, cafes and bars to choose from. Why not pick up some fish and chips and eat them at the harbour looking at the boats.
