The Oakley

About this property

The Oakley is a well-equipped caravan in Par, Cornwall. Providing a neat base for families, friends and two four-legged friends seeking a break close to the shoreline, boasting on-site facilities including a swimming poola nd a tennis court. Park up and take in the neatly kept surroundings where mature trees, tended lawns and a peaceful lake create an inviting first impression. A short walk leads you to the decking that wraps around the caravan, offering a pleasant spot to pause before stepping inside. Sliding open the door brings you into the open‑plan living space where natural light fills the room. The seating area invites you to settle in and unwind, whether you put your feet up with a favourite film on the generous flat‑screen TV or enjoy a relaxed evening using the DVD player.

The sofa can convert into an extra bed should you need it, adding flexibility without fuss. The fully fitted kitchen sits close by, and opening the cupboards helps you get a feel for where everything is as you unpack your own ingredients and settle into holiday routines. The gas oven and hob make mealtimes easy, whether you are preparing quick breakfasts or simple dinners to enjoy around the dining table. Morning light often reaches this space, creating a bright start to the day. Following the hallway, you will find the bedrooms. The double room offers a calm space to unpack and settle in, with a television positioned for comfortable bedtime viewing.

The twin room suits children or friends, providing a welcoming place to retreat after days out exploring. The nearby shower room features a walk‑in shower where you can freshen up after the beach before heading out again. Stepping back out onto the decking gives you a pleasant outdoor spot to enjoy a drink or simply take in the atmosphere of the park. Beyond your own space, the park offers plenty to discover. The leisure centre houses a well‑maintained heated swimming pool with seating around the water, ideal for relaxed dips throughout your stay. Outside, you can enjoy the tennis courts, the five‑a‑side pitch and the putting green, while children will find plenty to enjoy in the dedicated play area.

Along the beachfront, the on‑site bar and restaurant hosts regular events during the season and provides a relaxed place to spend an evening. A wander through the grounds brings you to the lake, where a range of birds can often be seen along the water’s edge. The lawns and planting around the park are well cared for, making it an enjoyable place for a gentle stroll. Just beyond the gates, the small town of Par is a short walk away, offering pubs, cafés, bakeries, takeaways and everyday convenience stores including a Co‑op and Spar. For further days out, Fowey is a scenic harbour town where you can explore narrow streets, watch boats drifting on the estuary and stop for something to eat with waterside views.

Charlestown offers a taste of maritime heritage, where tall ships sit in the historic harbour and waterfront paths lead you between shops and atmospheric quayside scenes. St Austell provides an easy day of browsing local businesses, exploring pottery history and enjoying relaxed dining options. Within an hour, the Eden Project offers an inspiring experience beneath towering biomes where rainforest and Mediterranean landscapes stretch out along winding pathways. Wheal Martyn Clay Works gives you a chance to discover Cornwall’s industrial heritage through trails, old machinery and views shaped by clay mining. For those who enjoy coastal walking, the South West Coast Path offers striking cliffside scenery, sheltered coves and far‑reaching views that make every stretch rewarding.
