About this property

Winray is set in a quiet spot on a grassy bank, accessible via several stone steps

West Cornwall adventures await you… From this quiet nook of the Riviere Towans holiday park, the stunning stretch of North Cornish coast that runs from Hayle Estuary to Godrevy is on the doorstep. The South West Coastal path that runs through The Towans (that's Cornish for Sand Dunes) takes in dramatic dunes, cliffs, coves, caves and tidal swimming pools. It's a great place for wild swimming, walking, and is popular all year round with watersports enthusiasts.

Winray offers accommodation for up to six guests (two double bedrooms and one bunk room) and has an open plan living/kitchen/dining area with sliding doors which open onto the grassy dunes outside. Bench seating invites you to enjoy the fresh air and views across the park.

Occupying a slightly elevated position, Winray is accessible via 7 stone steps, and parking is available close by.

Bedroom 1 - 1 double bed, large built-in wardrobe, chest of drawers.
Bedroom 2 - 1 double bed, built-in wardrobe, chest of drawers.
Bedroom 3 - Full size twin beds, large built-in wardrobe, chest of drawers.
Lounge - 3 piece suite, coffee table, TV with DVD, patio doors leading out onto the grass and the dunes.
Kitchen/Diner - Fitted units, cooker, fridge, washing machine, microwave, dining table and chairs.
Shower Room - Fitted shower, W.H.B., W.C.

Outside - Winray occupies a slightly elevated position and has an outside bench to sit and watch the world go by. The chalet is accessed via a few stone steps and parking is close by.

A message from Tom's
Come and find us in our on-site office open 9am-5pm Monday - Saturday and 9am-1pm on Sundays, from maintenance to housekeeping, travel tips and directions, we're here to help! There is a 24 hour ‘out of hours' contact number for us too.

The Location
The holiday park is one of the oldest in the country, with the first chalets constructed in the early 1920s. Now a beautiful site with a vast range of unique, quirky and privately owned accommodation, including beach chalets, bungalows and lodges. Many have stunning sea views and all are within a few minutes walk of the beach.

On the doorstep
Walk the coastal path at low tide all the way along the beach from Hayle river mouth to the Cliff tops of Godrevy and the surf break at Gwithian where you'll find great food and drinks from cocktails to coffees, ice creams and fresh seafood at the local cafes and restaurants.

For those seeking surf, beginners to experienced surfers and bodyboarders can enjoy doorstep breaks at Hayle Rivermouth and Mexico Towans, both within walking distance of the park. Paddle boarding and kayaking on the Estuary, as well as kitesurfing and windsurfing are popular all year round.

Hayle is home to the RSPB Hayle Estuary Reserve, Paradise Park Wildlife Sanctuary, Hayle Lido, ice cream parlours, gift shops, great food (including Cornwall's best Pasties from Philps), pubs and supermarkets.

Further Afield
Take the coastal train from Lelant to St. Ives, and visit The Tate & Barbara Hepworth museums. Visit Newlyn Harbour and Fish market for the best in Cornish Fish. Wander around the historical market town of Penzance, taking in the Harbour and Egyptian House or take a day trip to Lands End and coastal walk to Sennen Cove.
Find your way to Knill's Monument and Steeple Woodland Nature reserve, a 40 acre public open space which overlooks St Ives Bay before making your way down to Carbis Bay for fabulous food, drinks and its sheltered beach.
Cornwall has always been a favourite of artists, writers and film producers and its rugged coasts and beautiful coves have featured in numerous films and TV series most recently, the popular Poldark series. Whether it is a relaxing break or a more action packed holiday you are seeking, Toms Holidays at Riviere Towans is the ideal destination.
