RecommendedClifftop family hotel with villas

Polurrian on the Lizard

Helston, Cornwall

A relaxed clifftop hotel above its own little cove on the Lizard. The garden playground and film room keep small people busy, the kitchen happily does purees and warm bottles, and older children can try coasteering with the hotel's activity partner. The villas are a good shout if you want your own kitchen.

Days out nearby

  • Newquay Zoo ↗

    ~36 miles · ~45 mins

    Zoo · ideal day trip

    A small, leafy zoo set in subtropical gardens, easy to cover in half a day with little ones. Lemurs, penguins and red pandas are the stars, and it slots neatly between beach sessions on a Cornwall break.

  • Eden Project ↗

    ~40 miles · ~45 mins

    Nature / outdoors · ideal day trip

    Giant biomes hold a rainforest with a canopy walkway and a Mediterranean garden, set in a former clay pit. Children love the scale and the play areas; it is a Cornwall essential whatever the weather.
