Key Features


 
Coney Dune is a comfortable, well equipped traditional beach chalet. It has 2 bedrooms, each with an en-suite bathroom. Set amongst the sand dunes (‘towans’) above the mouth of the Hayle River on the North Cornwall coast, looking south and west across the bay to St Ives. As the chalet is right above the beach, the sea and river views are terrific both from the living area and the bedrooms. The huge panorama stretches from Lelant church and golf course on the far side of the river, round to the island lighthouse at Godrevy.

The chalet was remodelled and refurbished over winter 2020/21 to a very high standard. You can sit (or lie in bed!) and watch kite surfers and swimmers on the beach, walkers on the coast path, the tide coming in and out, the coastal train from Lelant to St Ives, and, of course, marvellous sunsets, from all rooms and from the very private deck and garden. It is a short walk down to glorious Hayle beach which, with its 3 miles of golden sands, is reckoned to be one of the great beaches of Europe. Further along the beach is Gwithian, famous for surfing, and Godrevy Point and lighthouse, owned by the National Trust and well known as a seal sanctuary.

Riviere Towans is approached via the village of Phillack with its pretty church and the famous Bucket of Blood pub. It is a great location for all Cornish attractions. There is a convenience store 5 minutes walk from the chalet and M&S food, Asda & Lidl and several good restaurants are under a mile distant. There is parking adjacent to the chalet.

Living Space - Large living space with patio doors and windows making the most of the views.
Kitchen - with oven and hob, range of cupboards, dining table and chairs. Dish washer & washing machine. Lounge area, sofa, chair, coffee table,TV, storage unit.
Bedroom 1 - Double king bed, storage, bedside tables, en suite shower room, shower, basin & toilet. TV.

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.

Wander around the historical market town of Penzance, taking in the Harbour and Egyptian House or take a day trip to Lands End and coastal walk to Sennen Cove.

Find your way to Knill's Monument and Steeple Woodland Nature reserve, a 40 acre public open space which overlooks St Ives Bay before making your way down to Carbis Bay for fabulous food, drinks and its sheltered beach.

Cornwall has always been a favourite of artists, writers and film producers and its rugged coasts and beautiful coves have featured in numerous films and TV series most recently, the popular Poldark series. Whether it is a relaxing break or a more action packed holiday you are seeking, Toms Holidays at Riviere Towans is the ideal destination.

Since discovering Riviere Towans just over a year ago I've managed to squeeze in four visits to four different chalets via Toms Holidays and loved each one in their own way. We peaked with Coney Dune! Recently 100% renovated - fabulous decor, the most amazing views, two bedrooms, two bathrooms - my parents in their 80s absolutely loved sitting in the wee garden taking in the sights and sounds of the sea. We were there for Cornwall's hottest day and with the sun streaming in it certainly was a warm holiday! I will be back with however I can find to drag along or just enjoy a wonderful holiday on my own!

Nice holiday place by the sea. Very nice self-catering bungalows with easy access to the beach. Most are dog friendly properties. Views towards St Ives are fantastic.
