It depends on the individual of course, but I've been in the holiday business long enough to know that for many vacationers having plenty to do and see is crucial when deciding to take a holiday in the UK. There's a good reason for that - the weather. It's so hard to plan an all-out beach holiday because to enjoy the beach at its very best you want plenty of sunshine to go with it (and to warm up the sea of course!) However, these days in the UK it's so hard to know when you will get some consistent sun. There was a time when you could virtually guarantee hours of glorious rays from June to August, but not anymore. There may be a reason for that, but we're not here to discuss and debate climate change. So these days, people looking for a place to go on holiday in the UK want an area of the country that maybe includes some nearby beaches, but also has other attractions inland.
How he knew I had a family I don't know, and he didn't elaborate or offer any reasons why I should take my family to Cornwall, but he said it with such authority that I immediately sought out the relevant pages in my brochure as the helpful fellow vacated the building. In fact I didn't see him leave which left me wondering whether he was some sort of Magical Travel Agent Fairy, because as it turned out his advice was spot on and myself and the family have been regular visitors to Cornwall ever since.
Everyone loves a beach, and Cornwall is blessed with some of the sandiest and widest, making it easy for everyone to find their own patch of gold to lie back or play on; that's because the Cornish coastline is the longest in the whole of Britain. Here you will find some glorious beaches such as the picturesque one in Seaton, just 8 miles from Crylla Valley, or wander over to the Bay of Whitsand and its three miles of beach and fantastic surfing or bodyboarding. If they don't take your fancy there's the beach and harbour at Looe to enjoy, the place famous for its fish and chips, pasties and ice cream. Again, Looe is just 28 minutes by car from Crylla Valley.
For the more serious surfer mention must be made of Fistral, renowned for its breathtaking breaks and swirls, and for those who enjoy a touch of history and nostalgia there's the smuggling and fishing tales of old to savour at Kingsand and Cawsand, the twin villages on the Rame Peninsula. For those who need to cater for the family, the beaches at Watergate Bay and Polzeath are the best offering plenty of bucket and spade and rockpool fun.
Staying in Crylla Valley provides many beautiful and amazing experiences either along the coast or inland at many attractions, but it also gives you the unique opportunity of gaining access to one of Cornwall's premier Golf & Country Clubs - and the great thing that access is totally free with membership to the local leisure club entitling you to unlimited use of the indoor heated swimming pool with large flume, children's fun zone, racquet sports, hot tub, sauna, steam room and loads more. As well as discounts on the food & beverage, spa treatments & 18 hole Championship golf course.
