£535 - £1486 per week
Book

If you fancy being a short stroll from the golden sands of Praa Sands and places to eat and drink, then Beach Break is the perfect choice. Beach Break is a gorgeous property all on one level, with easy access and plenty of parking. With an open plan living room, dining area with extra seating (and stunning sea views) and a super equipped kitchen, you will feel instantly at ease and ready to relax into holiday mode.

Tucked back off the main road up a little track, Beach Break couldn't be better situated for your main summer holiday, or a more chilled break in autumn or winter. Holiday at Beach Break and you are literally a ten minute drive from the foodie meccas of Porthleven and Marazion, but if you want to just sit and reflect before heading out for the day or an evening meal, then Beach Break has its own decked outdoor area with seating and sea views!

Holidays in Praa Sands

With one mile of white gold sand, which looks almost tropical in the sunshine, Praa Sands provides an idyllic setting for a Cornish holiday. The beach is ideal for family picnics, sandcastle building, beach games and paddling, and the waves are great for surfers and bodyboarders. Praa Sands beach is surrounded by stunning coastal walks, with breathtaking views of Penzance, Mount’s Bay and The Lizard Peninsula.

Great surf and surf hire facilities are on your doorstep along with the coast path and spectacular scenery. Read about surfing in Praa Sands on our blog: Ten of the best surf spots in Cornwall.

Praa Sands’ nine-hole golf course is only minutes away, or for those who prefer a bit of history, Pengersick Castle is a short walk away where there are plenty of stories about the wrecking and smuggling that took place in the bay until the 18th century. Right on the beach is Sandbar, a modern and bright restaurant/bar with magnificent views across the ocean.

Praa Sands is commonly pronounced 'Pray' Sands.
