Company info

We host our place as we can only visit it 3-4 times a year so we decided to allow others the chance to enjoy what our holiday home and the local area has to offer. We’re always contactable throughout your stay as we are 100% committed to ensuring you get the maximum out of your well deserved break. We do however, respect privacy and leave you to enjoy your holiday while remaining available if you need us.

Property info

Escape to the popular 5 star beachside Cornish resort of Par Sands nestled just behind the dunes of the award winning dog friendly beach in St Austell bay. Perfectly located for days out at the quaint harbour towns of Mevagissey, Polperro, Fowey, Charlestown as well as having The Eden Project and Lost Gardens of Helligan close by. Our homely static caravan, comfortably sleeps 4, has a sofa bed for additional guests if required and has a fully equipped kitchen, large smart TV, Starlink internet, comfortable beds, games and everything you could need. Park facilities are also available with our free guest passes which include heated pool, steam room and tennis courts. The park also has multiple children's play areas as well as a lake for feeding the ducks and geese. We have had caravans on the park for a few years and we’ve had numerous guests stay and most have given their stay a 10/10 rating, so much so that our average score is 9.5/10 over all our caravans. Although we can’t guarantee the weather, we can certainly assure you that you’ll love your time at The Crab Shack!

Neighborhood info

We are extremely lucky with some of the surrounding gems nearby which make activities and day trips easy and enjoyable. You may wish to go dog walking along the Cornish coastal paths, overlooking the bay and visiting nearby delightful villages of Polkerris, Carlyon Bay or Charlestown. Or you might prefer a day of activity with paddle boarding, boat trips, a splash in the quarry swimming adventure park, go-karting or even a bit of zip wire fun, all local to us as well as many others. Day trips to other seaside towns such as Fowey (3 miles), Mevagissey (11 miles), Looe and Polperro (both 20 miles) are very close and Padstow and Newquay are under 45 mins away, very easy and a must to see some traditional Cornish holiday hot spots. Too much to do and too little time is sometimes a nice problem to have!
