Parent to Tiny Travellers aged 2 and 3
The hotel had a modern, relaxed beach vibe and smells amazing! We've stayed in a few different rooms as we've visited various times. The view from the window-side bath tub in the Sea View suite is simply breathtaking, and the kids loved the bunk bends in the Family Room. The pool is beautiful, and the beach incredible - that's what keeps us coming back year after year, we just love it so much
Worth waking the baby for
01
Beach
The real crowning glory of Watergate Bay is its location – perfectly positioned on a two mile long stretch of golden sand (more than enough room for toddlers with energy to burn). Older kids can try their hand at learning to surf or paddleboard
02
Boat Tour
Aspiring inner Attenborough’s will love Padstow Sealife Safaris leaving from the harbour – explore hidden coves and cruise the open sea spotting dolphins as you go
03
The Eden Project
The forward thinking Eden Project houses landscapes from the Mediterranean to the rainforest in eco friendly domes. Inventive play spaces have been designed to enhance children’s eco awareness and educate them on how to look after the planet
Reviews from other parents
From the amazingly bright and spacious restaurant area, where dogs and babies could roam free, to the baby monitors handed to us on arrival and the amazing Kids Club which was like the best nursery in the world, when it comes to family friendly and baby friendly, Watergate Bay wins ALL THE PRIZES
