Dog-Friendly Holidays in Cornwall: Where to Go and What to Know
Dog friendly beaches in West Cornwall
June to August
Summer in Cornwall is nothing short of magical. It’s the warmest and liveliest time of year, with long sunny days, golden beaches, and a buzzing atmosphere. From mid-July through the end of August, the school holidays bring families from across the country to make the most of everything Cornwall has to offer.
It’s a season filled with salty air, sparkling seas, and outdoor adventures, perfect for beach days, coastal walks, watersports, alfresco dining, and soaking up spectacular sunsets.
Beauty and Bloom
Cornwall, and especially St Ives, truly shines in summer. The coastline glows, gardens are bursting with colour, and the sea sparkles in the sunlight. There’s a unique energy in the air, blending laid-back beach life with the excitement of the season.
We love this time of year for its slow, sandy mornings and lively, golden evenings. Whether you’re having a beach BBQ at sunset, hopping on a boat trip to spot seals, or simply sitting on the harbour wall with an ice cream watching the tide roll in, it’s hard not to fall in love with summer here.
That Summer Feeling
On a perfect summer’s day in Cornwall, you’d be forgiven for thinking you were somewhere far more tropical. Think turquoise waters, soft sands, and the warmth of the sun on your skin, all without leaving the UK.
The bars and restaurants are alive with music and laughter, and there’s a holiday spirit around every corner. It’s a time to unwind, explore, and enjoy every moment of the great outdoors.
