Pentewan Sands caravan park

If you love spending time in the Cornish sea, then a caravan holiday at Pentewan Sands is a great choice. The park has its own privately-owned beach which is suitable for swimming, windsurfing and sea canoeing. A holiday to Cornwall wouldn’t be complete with surfing and the sea is ideal for that too! If you fancy a break from the white sandy beach overlooking Mevagissey Bay, the park has two indoor swimming pools to enjoy as well as leisure and entertainment facilities, and an amusement arcade. Pentewan Sands Holiday Park, which has been open and welcoming holiday-makers for over 75 years, is incredibly wheelchair friendly - it has a beach-friendly wheelchair available, the park is flat and there are many disabled parking spaces available. The leisure venue has disabled access and ramp access into other areas of the park. The park has recently opened new, modern solar-powered changing facilities complete with underfloor heating. The five star caravan park is family friendly although dogs are not allowed - if you are looking to bring your pet along on your holiday, take a look at some of these dog-friendly parks in Cornwall.
