School's out for summer at Retallack Resort in Cornwall

31st July 2009 Print
This summer is set to be a scorcher in the UK and with more of us looking to holiday at home, seaside favourites like Cornwall are the perfect choice.

If you haven’t booked anything yet there is no need to panic, Retallack Resort & Spa, just off Cornwall’s Northern coast, still has availability over the summer months and offers everything a family could wish for.

A gorgeous collection of self catering lodges with the unique added benefits of a concierge service, Retallack is just a stones throw from the Cornwall’s golden sandy beaches, including Watergate Bay and Newquay. Head out with your buckets and spades to catch some rays, body board the waves or have a family kite-surf lesson before visiting nearby Padstow for fish and chips at Rick Stein’s, ice-creams on the harbour front and bike rides with cream teas along the Camel Trail.

Closer to home, Retallack offers a fantastic kids club for children aged between 4-12 years – with different themes each day and activities including cookery and face painting there is plenty of opportunity to have fun. If the sun is shining, kids will be outdoors competing in team sports and activities before enjoying visits from the snakes, spiders and creepy crawlies of Newquay Zoo, feathered friends from the Screech Owl Sanctuary or the sea-life inhabitants of the Blue Reef Aquarium.

Children aged 7 years upwards can enjoy good old fashioned fun with a hosted Bonfire party, gathering wood, making a fire, telling stories and toasting marshmallows whilst those aged 10 years and over can join in a Ray Mears survival session during the Bush Tucker day learning how to gut, prepare and cook fish over a fire.

Both adults and children alike will love Retallack Resort’s facilities, including an indoor swimming pool complex with steam room, sauna, gym, ‘Retreat’ spa offering Thalgo and Decleor treatments, fitness studio offering a variety of aerobics classes, tennis courts and tennis academy running all summer, 9-hole pitch and putt golf course and children’s adventure playground. Summer activities to keep everyone amused range from treasure hunts and nature walks to splash parties in the pool, family quiz nights and film evenings.

Retallack Resort really is the perfect holiday destination and is guaranteed to be a huge hit for the whole family.
