Cornish delights: 2 of the best family holiday parks for 2022
Surfing, ice cream and pasties: Cornwall has long been a popular staycation destination, vying with neighbouring Devon for families seeking a quintessential British seaside holiday at some of the best family holiday parks.
As Brits start planning their Easter, summer and autumn breaks for 2022, we've spotlighted two of Cornwall's best holiday parks.
These family holiday parks afford access to some of the county's best attractions, beaches and countryside.
Hendra Holiday Park, Newquay
Located near the bustling seaside town of Newquay, long-established Hendra Holiday Park offers a number of accommodation options: you can bring your own tent, touring caravan or motorhome, or try a Hendra family glamping pod, caravan or lodge.
Whichever option you choose, you'll be surrounded by beautiful landscaping, and get to enjoy indoor pools and plenty of places to eat or buy provisions. There's also a great kids' club, Segway tours, archery, skateboarding and zorbing, making it easy to understand why it is one of the best family holiday parks in Cornwall.
You'll also be a stone's throw from exciting Newquay, with its plethora of restaurants, bars, cream tea shops and pasty outlets.
If you're visiting as a couple or group of friends, you'll be able to experience Newquay's legendary nightlife.

Hendra is one of the few holiday centres in the UK to receive the AA's coveted Platinum rating.
St Ives Bay Holiday Park, St Ives
Another of the best Cornish holiday parks, it'll come as no surprise that St Ives Bay Holiday Park is located in St Ives - indeed, just a short stroll to The Towans, St Ives' long, clean, sandy beach.
The beach will probably be your main objective while whilst at staying at one of St Ives family holiday parks, but the St Ives Bay Holiday Park itself boasts a heated swimming pool, amusement arcades, play areas, bars and bistros. There's also a tennis court and a surf school.
Like Hendra, St Ives Bay offers a range of accommodation options, including chalets of all sizes, caravans and glamping pods. It now also offers a limited number of beach-front houses.
The town of St Ives
St Ives has long enjoyed an arty reputation, cemented by the construction of Tate St Ives in 1993 (the building itself is worth visiting).
There is also the Barbara Hepworth Sculpture Garden, a wide choice of beachside cafes, and of course the town's Porthmeor Beach, where you try a spot of surfing or swimming, go seal spotting, or simply top up your tan.
