Holiday parks are a good fit for families travelling with a dog. You get your own caravan, lodge or pitch, there’s space for the dog to stretch its legs, and the kids get pools and play areas. Cornwall’s parks are mostly within a short drive of a beach. Look around Perranporth and Newquay for big surf beaches, Bude and Widemouth for the far north coast, and Looe for the gentler south coast.
Not every unit on a park takes dogs, and the choice of dog-friendly ones goes quickly in summer. Some parks have gone a step further: The Park Cornwall at Mawgan Porth has dog-friendly cottages and lodges in its grounds, and Deerpark near Looe puts cabins in the middle of woodland, so walks start at the door.
Parks vary a lot in feel. Some are lively, with entertainment every night. Others are quiet and set in the countryside. It’s worth checking which you’re booking, especially with a dog that doesn’t enjoy crowds.
