Family owned luxury beach cottage
You can't get closer to the beach than Sea Shore. We are the only site located on the Holywell Bay side of the road, with a footpath giving direct beach access.
Holywell Bay beach is instantly recognisible by the distinctive Gull Rocks - the pair of humped islands standing half a mile offshore - Holywell Bay is one of Cornwall's best-loved beaches.
Surrounded by National Trust-owned land and backed by imposing sand dunes, the beach extends to 3/4 mile at low tide from Penhale Point at the western end towards Kelsey Head. There are many natural delights to be explored with sand dunes that rise up to 60 metres behind the beach and the half-hidden, grotto-like interior of Holywell Cave. At low tide a 70-year-old shipwreck can be seen in the water just off the beach.
Running between the dunes is a stream which fills with the tide and is perfect for those family members not quite old enough to venture into the sea. Children can scrabble around in the rock pools, play with the abundant fish in the river, splash around in the sea, or go mad in the dunes.
Holywell Bay has been used for countless Movies, adverts and TV Programmes. The opening Scenes of James Bond's Die another day were filmed on the beach as well as Poldark and House of the Dragon.
