If the weather is nice and sunny, you can sit on the outside terrace.

The inside is just as nice though, with a roaring fire to cosy up next to on cold winter days.

And what’s better is that your four-legged best friend doesn’t have to miss out as the site is dog-friendly.

For a day out, you can also head to the villages of Looe or Polperro, which are both around eight miles away.

There are several hidden beaches nearby as well, such as Lansallos Cove, Lantic Bay and Talland Bay – which are all within a 15 to 25 minute drive.

Silvano Geranio, owner said: “We are absolutely delighted to be named Holiday Park of the Year in the Sykes Gems Awards.

“Personally, I feel incredibly proud to own a park that has received this recognition, but more than anything, I’m delighted for the team.”

Many visitors note how peaceful the park is, with one person commenting: “My idea of paradise.”

Another guest said: “We over looked the lakes which has an abundance of wildlife so quiet and peaceful and relaxing.”

A third person added: “It’s the ultimate relax.”

You could book into a lodge that sleeps up to four people for £477 for seven nights – working out at just £17 per person, per night.

SYDNEY Sweeney looked utterly incredible posing up a storm in a red Baywatch-style swimsuit.

The sexy star modeled the skin-tight iconic outfit while standing in front of a stunning lake.

In the snaps Sydney placed a hand on either of her hips and posed in front of the camera.

Her waist looked teeny while being hugged by the red fabric, which emphasized her enviable curves.

The swimsuit featured a low cut neckline, highlighting Sydney‘s chest.

She finished the outfit off by simply adding a pair of dark shades and a smile for the camera.

Another snap shows Sydney‘s beau Scooter lifting her up while laughing.

The thong bottom of Sydney’s swimsuit is visible from behind, showing how she looks sexy from every angle.

She donned Scooter’s baseball cap in the outfit in these snaps, making for an adorable couple moment.

The sweet couple snap and sexy outfit come shortly after Sydney was reportedly ordered to dump Scooter by a top Hollywood agent.

The actress signed with CAA earlier this month after leaving Paradigm Talent Agency and becoming a free agent.

This reportedly followed an awkward exchange in January between the Euphoria star and Ari Emanuel, executive chairman of WME Group, an entertainment and media agency, about her future.

According to Page Six, multiple sources claimed that Ari ordered Sydney, 29, to split from Scooter, 45, to “better serve” her career.

“Ari was telling her that if she wanted to be taken seriously as an actress and businesswoman, she needed to break up with Scooter,” an insider told the outlet.

The source said Scooter learned of Ari’s remarks and was very upset, especially since he convinced Sydney to take the meeting.

A rep for Ari denied that the meeting ever happened and that he told Sydney to dump the former talent manager, Page Six reported.
