About Harlyn Sands Holiday Park

Perched above Harlyn Bay just outside Padstow, this family-friendly holiday park delivers sweeping coastal views and direct access to some of Cornwall's loveliest beaches and clifftop walks. The on-site club serves up popular meals — a real bonus after a day exploring the coast — while staff consistently earn praise for their welcoming, helpful approach. Dogs are welcome, there's a swimming pool for cooling off, and electric hook-ups come as standard across the grass pitches.

That said, some visitors note the facilities can feel a little tired in places, so don't expect everything to be pristine. Still, for families touring Cornwall who want stunning scenery, good food on the doorstep and easy coastal rambles, Harlyn Sands makes a thoroughly decent base.

What visitors say

David Madge

Felt the grounds and buildings need refurbishment... Visited in April in glorious sunshine on a touring pitch... Stunning beaches everywhere... Many of the touring caravans that are permanently there are in a poor condition.... The reception was excellent and Andy who did the booking on arrival was very helpful.

This coastal area is Heaven on earth! Harlyn Sands is a great base to access the area with easy access to the local bus, a great shop and cafe hut, lovely facilities, very friendly helpful staff, a lovely bar with Jams and live music on a few nights a week. We’ve been going every few months with our campervan. The toilet facilities are great and the Elsan point and water, grey waste disposal are all easily accessible. I love the sea views of Gulland. We will be going back again and again

Nice park and beach, facilities were some what dated and could of really done with an extra block of toilet/showers. The amount of traffic the 1 block got was outstanding and the hope of the staff trying to keep them clean was adventurous. It was expensive for what you get, you have to pay extra for showers and we didn't entertain the idea of using the swimming pool as that would be an extra £5 per day per person.

Location and the service we received was amazing, the caravan was good but there were a few things that could of been better, there wasnt many pans and the pans that where there was so small, cooking was an issue. Also it was stated that lining was included but it wasnt, just a duvet and pillows no covers which meant we had to purchase them from amazon. Other than that it was amazing.
