Pentewan Sands sits right on its own privately owned beach near St Austell in Cornwall, with holiday homes, lodges, glamping pods and touring and camping pitches to choose from. On site you'll find two indoor swimming pools, adventure golf, tennis courts, a beachfront play park, watersports hire and seven places to eat and drink, from a fish and chip shop to bars and restaurants. Many holiday homes and pitches come with their own EV charging point, and several accommodations offer sea views across Mevagissey Bay. The park is within walking distance of the South West Coast Path and Pentewan village with its pubs and harbour, while Mevagissey, with its museum and marine aquarium, is just a short drive away, along with the Shipwreck Treasure Museum further along the coast.
