Nestled in the midst of the Cornish countryside and surrounded by great swathes of gorgeous sandy beaches, this beautiful park is a haven for nature lovers. After a few days of walking through the wild, windswept beauty of Cornwall’s north coast, admiring the views and listening to the gentle lapping of the waves, the stresses of everyday life will simply melt away. The park is surrounded by eleven stunning beaches, boasting bright blue waters and stretching golden sands. Porth Beach is one of the best ones for families, as it’s easy to get to and has lovely soft golden sands and shallow waters. If you’re craving a bit of culture, then the vibrant surfing town of Newquay is just around the corner and you’ll find plenty of fun things to do here. Browse the local shops, visit the Blue Reef Aquarium or else head to the beach and watch the surfers take on the waves. Kids will absolutely love Pirate Quest, which is an amazing interactive walk-through experience, featuring real actors, authentic sets and plenty of special effects. If you’re a fan of history then you should definitely visit the impressive Restormel Castle, which is just a 30-minute drive from the park. This medieval stronghold has a long and fascinating past and was even visited by The Black Prince himself. It’s well-preserved ruins on the top of a little hill make for a romantic sight indeed, especially when set against the backdrop of the pretty countryside surrounds.
