Hi all, we usually go to St Ives in August but wondered about a change. Looking for a week somewhere warm in the UK, near a sandy beach. We're in the south west so Cornwall, Wales, Dorset, Devon... and of course wouldn't discount St Ives as it's so lovely!
I know it's peak season so not looking for a deal but, after a bad experience with a holiday rental last year, would prefer a LMH member property! One or two bedrooms (if okay with the owner our well-behaved 3 and 5 years old's prefer to sleep in with us on air beds even if there is a second bedroom).
Thanks for any ideas! Also open to a full or partial swap if anyone fancies a luxury 1-bed on Brighton seafront but not essential.
Thank you!
UK sandy beach in August?
Hi Louiseddie
I had an enquiry last night but if she doesn't book I still have the week of 26th August at our beach apartment in Porthtowan (so not far from St Ives). www.seashellsporthtowan.co.uk.
Wouldn't be able to do a swap as we are a family of 4. Shame as I love Brighton and have family nearby.

Hi Louiseddie,
Our cottage is between Dartmouth and Salcombe with sandy beaches a short drive, and a huge - but more coarse sand/pebble - one within walking distance.
The master bedroom is really big with plenty of room for a couple of air beds , and a sea view as a bonus.
If you'd like any more details website is

Thank you everyone! Jenster, thank you your place looks lovely, if it had been any other week we'd have snapped your hand off but thinking about it my youngest starts school this September and that week would only give him one day of 'come down' after a holiday. We will definitely think of you next year if we get our act together a bit earlier before everything gets snapped up! Amandajane, again what a lovely place you have and thank you but being walking distance to a sandy beach is pretty high on our agenda given the age of the kids. Kyreniagirl, great tip re Mudeford, thank you! You've all given great food for thought, much appreciated!
