    Three great things about Cornwall

    Golden beaches & hidden coves

    Cornwall is the coastal escape of all coastal escapes. From Perranporth Beach and Towans Beach at Hayle, our parks are right on the doorstep of golden sand, enchanted hidden coves and glorious surfing.

    The South West Coast Path

    With 330 miles to explore, the South West Coast Path takes in all of the great scenery that Cornwall has to offer, including sections that pass near both of our holiday parks.

    Iconic landmarks & heritage

    Cornwall is steeped in world-class heritage, with Tintagel Castle featuring ruins from King Arthur's time and St Michael's Mount boasting a medieval castle and church. With deep-rooted ties to Celtic culture, there is much to explore in Cornwall.

    Frequently asked questions

    What should I know about Cornwall?

    England’s most southwestern county, Cornwall is a popular tourist spot. Its population of around 500,000 increases massively during the summer months and school holidays. 

    Cornwall was historically recognised as a Celtic nation, with its own distinct language and culture. Reminders of this are seen in place names and in regional slang. 

    Cornwall is surrounded by the sea on three sides. The English Channel and Celtic Sea are its neighbours, setting the scene for some of the most spectacular coastal views in the UK. 

    Haven's two Cornwall holiday parks - Perran Sands in Perranporth and Riviere Sands in Hayle - offer the perfect coastal base for exploring this spectacular county.

    Why is Cornwall a great holiday destination?

    With hundreds of magnificent beaches like Perranporth Beach and Towans Beach at Hayle, and a beautiful breath of fresh air throughout, Cornwall offers a holiday experience that few other counties can match. 

    Cornwall’s distinct history makes for a whole host of unmissable heritage sites that are great for a family-friendly day out. Places like St Michael’s Mount are quite simply stunning. Tintagel Castle is another favourite of ours. 

    A trip to Cornwall doesn’t just have to be about the scenery. With a wide range of local food, activities and attractions, it conjures up all the ingredients needed to make memories that last a lifetime.

    With Haven's parks located right on the Cornish coast, you're perfectly placed to explore it all.

    Why holiday with Haven in Cornwall?

    There are two terrific Haven holiday parks waiting for your arrival in Cornwall. Perran Sands Holiday Park is just outside the picturesque village of Perranporth, in an area known as one of the best in Britain for surfing. Further down the Cornish coast you’ll find Riviere Sands on the beautiful white sands of St Ives Bay and close to the relaxed town of Hayle.

    Both parks feature swimming pools, live entertainment and dedicated kids' clubs, with self-catering accommodation from just £49 for four nights. Choose from a range of caravan options offered at both parks, while Perran Sands also provides chalets, glamping spots, lodges and beach houses.

    What are the accommodation options available at Haven's holiday parks in Cornwall?

    Haven offers a range of self-catering accommodation at both Cornwall parks. Static caravans are available from saver to signature gold grade at Perran Sands, all fully equipped with kitchen, lounge, bedrooms and bathroom, with higher grades offering more space and superior furnishings. The park also offers budget-friendly chalets and glamping spots, while guests wanting a bit more luxury can opt for a lodge or beach house.

    Riviere Sands offers caravans ranging from saver, bronze and signature, with the latter offering front row sea or lakeside view. Accessible accommodation is also available, so be sure to contact Haven to discuss specific requirements. See full availability on the Perran Sands and Riviere Sands park pages.

    What are the top things to do in Cornwall?

    Cornwall is packed with unmissable experiences. Don't miss the Eden Project near St Austell, which is home to the world's largest indoor rainforest, or Tintagel Castle, King Arthur's clifftop fortress with Merlin's Cave below.

    For yet more breathtaking views, look no further than St Michael's Mount which is a tidal island castle, or The Minack Theatre, an open-air clifftop theatre with an ocean backdrop. Adventurers can embrace their surfing passions at Perranporth and Fistral Beach, while keen walkers will love exploring the 330-mile long South West Coast Path.

    Animal lovers also have Newquay Zoo and Blue Reef Aquarium to visit, with both featuring incredible creatures and species from around the world.
