Gallery DISCOVER: The UK's Best Beachfront StaysThere’s a reason families return year in, year out to Watergate Bay Hotel. The only hotel on the edge of one of Cornwall’s best surfing spots, this is how to do beach holidays with kids. An infinity pool overlooks the beach, perfect for adult-only morning zen or kids letting off steam on a stormy day. For small kids, the facilities are brilliant: kids clubs on the beach, movie nights, an ice rink at Christmas and waffles for every breakfast. Don’t forget to take some home so your own bathroom can forever remind you of this slice of Cornish happiness.
