About

Macdonald’s Farm Holiday Park is a 5‑star family‑run destination nestled between Padstow and Newquay on Cornwall’s Seven Bays. The site offers a range of accommodation types – from rustic camping pitches to luxury Safari Lodges, private Potting Barn and Mawgies cabins, and cosy bed‑and‑breakfast rooms with sea views. Guests can relax in garden lounge areas, cook in fully equipped kitchenettes, and enjoy a host of on‑site facilities such as renovated shower blocks, a pet wash, indoor cafes, games, live music, and wildlife‑feeding sessions. The farm is dog‑friendly, with dedicated pet‑facilities and extra charges for dogs in certain lodges. The open, white‑washed valley provides a tranquil backdrop for stargazing, walks along the beach, and exploration of the South West Coast Path. For day visitors, the farm welcomes guests from 8am to 9.30pm every day from April until October, with rounded‑off hours on weekends during winter. Families, couples, solo travellers, dog owners, nature enthusiasts and those seeking a peaceful country‑cottage escape will find plenty to enjoy.
