A message from the Owners
For many years having taken our Mums (a wheelchair user, the other not very mobile) on holiday, we always tried to find a self-catering place that could accommodate them, our dogs and us. We all loved this area so decided to buy a chalet and design it with our Mum's needs in mind. We hope you will feel comfortable and have a pleasant stay either enjoying the sunshine from the chalet or the beach, exploring the roads around the Park, longer walks with the dogs or driving further afield. Sea Haven is located in a lovely open area of the Park. Welcome to our Holiday Home. Chris and Gillian Owners

The Location
The holiday park is one of the oldest in the country, with the first chalets constructed in the early 1920s. Now a beautiful site with a vast range of unique, quirky and privately owned accommodation, including beach chalets, bungalows and lodges. Many have stunning sea views and all are within a few minutes walk of the beach.

Walk the coastal path at low tide all the way along the beach from Hayle river mouth to the Cliff tops of Godrevy and the surf break at Gwithian where you'll find great food and drinks from cocktails to coffees, ice creams and fresh seafood at the local cafes and restaurants.
For those seeking surf, beginners to experienced surfers and bodyboarders can enjoy doorstep breaks at Hayle Rivermouth and Mexico Towans, both within walking distance of the park. Paddle boarding and kayaking on the Estuary, as well as kitesurfing and windsurfing are popular all year round.
Hayle is home to the RSPB Hayle Estuary Reserve, Paradise Park Wildlife Sanctuary, Hayle Lido, ice cream parlours, gift shops, great food (including Cornwall's best Pasties from Philps), pubs and supermarkets.
