Marazion sits on Mount’s Bay looking straight out to St Michael’s Mount, with a long sandy beach and the tidal causeway linking the town to the island. Staying in a family holiday cottage in Marazion means you can walk straight onto the sand for paddling and sandcastle building, then time a trip across to St Michael’s Mount by foot at low tide or by boat when the causeway is covered. The combination of a family-friendly beach and a castle-topped island gives you a strong focal point for the holiday.
With children, it is easy to shape days around the tide. Perhaps a morning exploring the island’s paths and gardens, lunch back on the mainland, then an afternoon on the beach with views of the causeway reappearing. When you want a change, Penzance, Newlyn and the rest of Mount’s Bay are only a short drive away for more harbours, parks and cafés. Having a holiday home in Marazion lets you travel light to the beach, pop back quickly between outings and enjoy relaxed evenings watching the light change over the bay.
