About Harlyn Sands Holiday Park

Nestled along the stunning Cornish coastline, this Padstow holiday park provides an ideal destination for family holidays. Whether you want to just unwind and let the little ones make friends in the onsite kids club, or you want to spend your days relaxing on the beach or splashing in the swimming pool, the site offers it all. For tents, motorhomes and caravans, the site offers two types of electric grass pitches, each allowing up to six guests. The regular Family Park pitches measure 9m square with a 6 amp hook up, whilst the Premium Family Park pitches measure around 10.5m square with a 10 amp hook up. The holiday park is kitted out for everything you may need for your stay. From an onsite restaurant, clubhouse, bar and shop, to kid's entertainment and a play park, there is plenty to keep everyone busy. Being within walking distance of the beach and only 15 minutes from the popular town of Padstow, there is plenty to explore nearby too. There are also over 300 static caravans onsite, some are available for guests and others are privately owned. Four-legged friends are also welcome to join you for your stay, with up to two allowed per pitch for a small fee. Evenings can be spent cooking up a BBQ, as long as they are not on the grass.

Harlyn Sands Holiday Park is open from 23/03 to 04/11 in 2024 and from 29/03 to 31/10 in 2025.

Motorhome - Family Park Electric Grass PitchesSep 2024

Disappointed to be charged £24 for 2x dogs. No dog walk area on site. Gents WC not great, would benefit from a urinal area. Showers, although a 20p surcharge, were good and very spacious. Good bar area and outside seating and clearly a great site for kids. No service point for touring motorhomes - but we were told this is something that is on the agenda. Good shop and decent site staff.

Not great

Large Tent - Family Park Electric Grass PitchesAug 2024

Site was quite large, a lot of different things to do for kids. The toilet facilities weren't too great - missing toilet paper, taps not working. The worst thing was the shower - boiling water, kids were crying because it was so hot! The good thing was evening entertainment for kids - the girls who were leading this were really good and could get the kids involved! In general, we probably won't be back.

Great week away

Single Axle Caravan - Family Park Electric Grass PitchesAug 2024

Lovely location, really close to a great beach. Club house provided great entertainment for the kids and adults. Nice to have a restaurant and chippy with the facilities and a fairly well stocked shop. Toilets and showers need some attention as lots of doors had no locks and toilets need cleaning more regularly.
