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.

Another very pleasant return visit to Rosemary. Looking forward to returning again.

This is the second time we’ve stayed at Rosemary. The property is very clean, spacious and comfortable and very well- equipped for a great family holiday.

Fantastic location, close to the beach, shop and cafe. Most well equipped property I’ve stayed in. Nice touches with soap provided in bathrooms, toilet roll, tissues, tea, coffee and of course the scones and cream. Really comfy beds and lovely view. The outside shower is great for washing the sand off when you come back from the beach. Would highly recommend a stay at Rosemary.

Lovely position, very well equipped & home from home or even better!

Another excellent stay in Rosemary. Looking forward to returning in September.

Lovely place to stay and enjoy Praa Sands.

Another excellent stay at Rosemary. And we will be returning again too. So comfortable and relaxing. Lovely sea views too.

A beautiful, well equipped, spacious, comfortable and clean property perfectly located for a family holiday. Its close proximity to the beach means you can leave the car where it is for couple of days but also plenty to do in the local area. We definitely hope to return!

Wonderful setting. Comfortable, clean & well equipped property. Handy local shop. Easy beach access. Good bus service to save using car too often to help save the planet!

Another very enjoyable stay in Rosemary. Pleased also with the service provided by Aspects Holidays.

Lovely spacious, well equipped property in a fantastic location. We would definitely return to Rosemary.

The house is large, spacious, well equipped for adults as well as children & is a 5 - 10 minutes walk from the beach, in a good location to explore southern Cornwall

What a wonderful ‘Home from Home’ experience. We absolutely loved the decor and everything was spotlessly clean. A brilliant holiday accommodation. We had a fantastic week staying at Rosemary and will recommend to all our friends.

Yet another enjoyable stay at Rosemary.

Homely, comfortable and so relaxing.

Will be returning again.

Great place to stay, very homely and well equipped with a wonderful sea view ( and you can hear the sea at night too with the main bedroom window open!). Slept 6 of us very comfortably without feeling we were on top of one another. Would definitely visit again.

A return visit for a winter break. So homely, warm and comfortable. Will be returning again.
