    “The house was great.”

    We had 8 adults, Praa sands was amazing the beach and the bar at the beach brilliant. Only one minor thing was the bedrooms on mid level had zip and lock superkings/singles the springs made awful noises as you turned over and the length of the bed was short,my husband is 6ft 3 and he was to tall for the beds. But the house had everything we needed and loved the sound of the sea sat on the balcony so thank you sandbanks

Sandbanks is a stylish, contemporary holiday home set right on the waterfront at Praa Sands in beautiful Cornwall.

Boasting uninterrupted sea views, a bubbling hot tub, and a brand-new four-person sauna, this impressive three-storey property is perfect for families or groups of friends seeking a relaxing coastal escape.

Whether you're planning to unwind at home or explore the South West Coast Path, with scenic walks in both directions starting from your doorstep, Sandbanks offers the ideal base. On arrival, off-road parking welcomes you, making settling in a breeze.

Inside, the spacious open-plan living area forms the heart of the home – a bright and sociable space combining a well-equipped kitchen, dining area, and comfortable lounge.

After a day of adventure, prepare a delicious meal and gather around the table to plan the next day’s outings.

Later, relax in front of the Smart TV or step out onto the enclosed front patio – a great feature for families and pet owners alike. Upstairs, the first-floor sitting room is bathed in natural light thanks to floor-to-ceiling windows.

Sink into the plush seating and take in the panoramic sea views, or enjoy your morning coffee on the balcony with the fresh sea breeze for company. The ground floor hosts two king-size bedrooms, each with sleek en-suite shower rooms – ideal for multigenerational stays.

On the first floor, two further super-king-size zip/link bedrooms offer flexible sleeping arrangements, while the top floor reveals a luxurious master suite with its own en-suite bathroom – perfect for a long soak after a day on the beach. Speaking of the beach, Praa Sands Beach is quite literally on your doorstep.

This mile-long stretch of golden sand is lifeguarded during the season, making it a safe and popular choice for families.

The enclosed rear garden adds further peace of mind for those with children or dogs in tow. When it comes to dining out, SISU Café in Praa Sands is a must-visit, while The Packet Inn nearby serves hearty meals made with local Cornish produce.

Food lovers should also make time for a trip to Porthleven, home to acclaimed restaurants such as Kota and The Square. Golfers will appreciate Praa Sands Golf Club, just minutes away, where dramatic sea views accompany every round.

For memorable day trips, explore St Michael’s Mount, Pendennis Castle, or Paradise Park and JungleBarn, all within easy reach. Whether you’re walking the coast, relaxing in the sauna, or simply watching the waves roll in, Sandbanks offers everything you need for a truly unforgettable Cornish getaway.

About the location

PRAA SANDS

Marazion 4.5 miles ; Helston 6 miles ; Porthleven 5 miles

The village of Praa Sands sits on the south coast in between Helston and Marazion. Praa Sands is known for its mile-long sandy beach and excellent surfing conditions. There is a bar/restaurant overlooking the beach – the perfect spot for lunch with a view or sunset drinks. Praa Sands is also home to a Golf and Country Club, from where the most wonderful sea vista can be enjoyed whilst you play. Just inland from the beach is Pengersick Castle, the tower of which dates back to the 16th century. It is said that Pengersick is haunted, and that the ghost of a monk has been seen wandering the grounds! The house at Pengersick is rumoured to be the birth place of John Carter, the self styled King of Prussia and a tunnel which leads from the house to the beach was apparently once used by smugglers. There are supermarkets and other retail stores in Penzance (8 miles) and Helston (6 miles).
