On the Beach in Beautiful Cornwall

Beachside Holiday Park in Hayle, St Ives Bay, Cornwall

Welcome to Beachside Holiday Park in Hayle, a family-friendly holiday park in Cornwall set amid the dunes of St Ives Bay, family-run for over 60 years. Offering an unrivalled location for beach holidays by the sea, we provide a restful, care-free, and less commercial setting in which to unwind and enjoy the coast during a well-deserved holiday in Cornwall.

Only a stone’s throw from St Ives in West Cornwall, our peaceful campsite and custom-built range of self-catering holiday accommodation by the sea take pride of place overlooking one of the most beautiful beaches in the UK. With quality always a priority, we provide the best holiday chalets, seafront lodges, serviced pitches and touring & camping pitches (with electric hook-up) in Cornwall and more – perfect for families and couples alike.

If you can’t wait to start planning your short break or holiday in Hayle, take a look through our affordable beach retreats and discover all we have to offer. Onsite holiday park facilities include a children’s adventure playground, games room and a new restaurant and family bar with live evening entertainment during peak season. We also have an outdoor heated swimming pool open from May to September for relaxing days under the sun.

Nearby, the pillowy soft sands of Gwithian, Godrevy, Carbis Bay, Porthmeor and more are just a pebble’s skim away. Spend time out and about exploring the highlights of Hayle, St Ives and Penzance, or simply make use of our onsite facilities and direct beach access for the type of timeless fun that’ll provide lifelong memories. With dog-friendly accommodation and pitches, Beachside offers easy access to walks on the sand dunes, coastal footpath or along the three-mile Hayle beach. And, as all of our holiday retreats and main facilities have free high-speed WiFi, you can share your favourite holiday moments with your family and friends back home too.

Visitors return year after year to Beachside – why not come and find out why? Perfect for all generations, we’re looking forward to welcoming you during your next holiday in Cornwall.
