You'll get all that and more at Beverley Park in Paignton, Devon, where there are plenty of caravan and tent pitches still available for summer stays.
And one of the highlights of this holiday park is the views across the incredible Broadsands Beach in Torbay.
There's also plenty to do for both adults and kids, including splashing about in the two heated outdoor swimming pools.
For those who fancy a little pampering, the on-site spa has a sauna, steam room and hot tub, you can also catch a show at the Starlight Bar.
Other activities include the outdoor adventure playgrounds, kids' clubs, paddling pools, soft play, family amusements and an indoor playroom.
There's also a Jetty Restaurant, the Catch Takeaway, Saltwater Kitchen and Terrace and Boulevard Café, where visitors can enjoy the seaside staple, fish and chips, and have a drink.
You'll find the campsite overlooking the incredible Broadsands Beach in Torbay, which is a favourite spot of Travel Reporter Cyann Fielding.
She said: "I might be biased as this beach was a huge part of my childhood, but Broadsands Beach is a hidden gem.
"At both ends of the beach, there are numerous rocks to explore and then the beach itself is made of the typical red sand found in Devon - due to the soil in the area."
English beach town to get new £14million seafront

Cyann continued: "A long stretching promenade runs alongside the beach and there are a few places to grab a bite to eat or a coffee.
"Whilst on occasions a lot of seaweed does wash up on the beach, Broadsands does have a blue flag."
The campsite is unsurprisingly a popular spot, one visitor wrote in their review: "The views are absolutely stunning, friendly staff, brilliant heated pool, entertainment also really good! Such a lovely friendly family place!"
Another added: "Plenty of things to do enjoyed bingo and family entertainment.
"The food at the jetty was excellent including the carvery. And the view across the bay is amazing."
There's still space this summer for a tent pitch, a family of four can stay for two nights between 26-28 August 2025.
With two infants (children under four) this will cost £12 per person per night.
With children over four this works out at £14.50 per person per night.

Along the coast, and just seven minutes away in the car, is the town of Paignton.
It's best known for having a pink sand beach, which is caused by iron minerals in the sand oxidising in the air.
Nearby, there's also Splashdown Quay West, which is the UK's largest outdoor water park.
Soon, Paignton will have a new look as plans are underway to transform the seafront.
As part of a £14million scheme two seafronts in the Devonshire beach town, Paignton and Preston Sands will be upgraded to improve sea defences.
The seafront at Paignton will get new seating terraces, and the shelters, kiosks and cafes will be relocated as part of the overhaul.
A new entrance on South Green will give vehicles access to the seafront, although no traffic will be allowed onto the promenade.
Check out the ultimate staycation destination in Devon which has two beach-fringed coasts, stargazing parks and picturesque seaside villages.

I'm an etiquette expert and here are the mistakes you're making on holiday that make you look common and like a 'low class guest'
We all dream of the perfect holiday, sipping cocktails by the pool, effortlessly blending in with the locals, but your behaviour might be saying something else entirely. Jo Hayes, etiquette expert and founder of highlighted the common mistakes holiday makers make abroad that make them look 'classless' and 'common' and revealed how to avoid doing them. From playing phone audio out loud to inappropriate fashion choices and cultural faux pas, some holiday habits don't just turn heads- they scream tacky tourist. Speaking to the Daily Mail, she explained: 'Self-awareness, courtesy towards others and a decent level of humility, are three foundational pillars to living a life of substance and class. 'Falling short in any one of these three foundational character traits paves the way for behaviour that is not only potentially rude and disrespectful, but also makes one appear common and classless. 'Unfortunately, many people do drop the ball in one - or, perhaps, all - of these pillars, especially when on holiday, when they're perhaps in a more relaxed mode, feeling they 'deserve' to chill out and focus on themselves for a while. 'But, if you'd prefer to preserve your personal dignity, and avoid being highlighted as the 'low class guest', a few tips and advice as to what not to do when on holiday.' Obnoxiously loud conversations 'We get it. You're on holiday with your friends (or family), and you want to let your hair down and have enjoy yourself. Great. But, so does everyone else. And part of said enjoyment means not being exposed to obnoxiously loud chatter from fellow tourists/ holidaymakers. 'This applies to sun loungers by the pool in resorts, dining in restaurants, travelling on planes and public transport, waiting in queues at tourist attractions and all other places where one is in close proximity with other humans. 'Carrying on a loud conversation, so as to be easily heard by, and a distraction for, those around you demonstrates a distinct lack of self-awareness, disrespect for others, and general level of commonness. 'I can assure you, those around you aren't impressed by your verbosity or 'gift of the gab'. They'd rather enjoy their morning coffee and paper in quiet.' Disrespect to hotel/restaurant staff 'A well-mannered person treats everyone with respect- from a pauper to a Prime Minister. 'Clicking your fingers for the restaurant waitstaff, making demands, and failing to smile, say please and thank you doesn't come across as high-class. 'In fact, the opposite. It looks like you haven't been taught manners (and possibly haven't). Kindness, charity and respect, at all times, in all things.' Playing phone audio on loudspeaker 'I cringe speaking this aloud. I honestly cannot believe that a portion of the human population actually does this. 'In what world are you living, dear people? No one around you wants to hear your music, your phone conversation, your social media audio, or your general phone notification dings/pings/rings. 'Especially when they're on holiday and trying to unplug/switch off from technology. 'It's supremely disrespectful, discourteous and dare I say, supremely selfish. It sends a clear message to the world that one hasn't been taught the ins an outs of digital/phone etiquette. (And, again, a great level of self-awareness is at play here). 'Earbuds. This is what they're made for you. Your audio is for your ears and your ears only. 'This applies for humans of every age. Parents, if you have children with an ipad, they must, must, must have headphones. And, no, low volume doesn't cut it. 'Any level of loudspeaker audio is annoying for those around you. 'Phones on silent - those dings and pings are super-irritating for those around you, and send cortisol levels spiking for many people - including for the person making the noise. 'But, unfortunately, the lack of self-awareness means they're often not even plugged into what a cortisol spike feels like). Audio on headphones when around other people. Period.' Ignorance of local customs and traditions 'This is a big one, anywhere in the world, but especially for tourists travelling throughout Europe. 'Churches and other religious sites, demand a certain level of decency and decorum, out of respect of the sacredness of the site. 'Modest dress (covered shoulders, long skirts/pants, enclosed shoes), quiet conversation (or silence), and discrete behaviour (no running, no shoving, no photos/use of phones) demonstrates respect for the place you're visiting and the people who live/work there. 'The modest dress standards, and discrete/respectful behaviour also applies generally across many European towns and cities - not just in the Churches and religious sites. 'Nothing shouts 'low class tourist' more than someone who brazenly trots around these places in inappropriate clothing, cleavage showing, midriff, spaghetti strap tops, short shorts or miniskirts, snapping selfies, shooting a video for their TikTok reels in a place where they most definitely shouldn't. 'Also, caveat - these churches will likely turn you away if you try to enter with inappropriate attire. Appropriate clothing/modesty at all times 'Of course - churches and religious sites demand modest, respectful clothing. But immodest clothing in other places - cafes, restaurants, shopping malls, when lounging in or walking through the resort lobby or in resort corridors, is inappropriate and 'bogan'/ low class. 'Respect for oneself and others means covering up, and dressing for the occasion. 'Sure, a bathing suit with your towel around your waist is fine for the beach/pool. 'It's not okay for approaching the resort front desk, lounging in the lobby, or taking your seat at the restaurant for lunch. 'Cover up- a flowy dress, a long shirt, shorts, appropriate shoes (no flip flops outside the beach/pool area!).' Intoxication 'While some may be tempted by the open-bar Mimosas available from 8am at their all inclusive resort, I offer a stark word of warning. Don't. (Or, be very, very careful). 'I would personally suggest avoiding any alcohol before midday, as a general 'life rule'. 'But if/when you do decide to partake in an alcohol beverage - be it midday, 6pm cocktails, or a wine at dinner- go easy, moderation, and stay far, far away from 'drunk'. 'Do you really want to be seen as a booze-head? One wants to avoid, at all costs, being the guest who's stumbling through the lobby, talking/laughing too loudly (and disrupting other guests), and just generally being obnoxious.' Taking excessive photos/ videos 'Of course, you're on holiday, visiting amazing places, seeing cool things - all of which add up to many insta-worthy stories and reels. 'Good for you - take a few pics, shoot a few vids, but don't turn the resort's pool area into the set of 'Sally's Greece Adventure'. 'I can assure you, your fellow guests, and staff, won't be impressed. Too much personal preening, overdoing the pics, videos, 'presenting to cameras' comes across as rather vulgar and vain. 'No-one really cares if you're an 'influencer' with 50K followers - the other guests just want to enjoy their book, watch their children swim, and have a relaxing chat with their friends - without being subject to Sally doing ten takes of 'Day 3 of the Adventure' on the lounger next to them. Blasting loud music 'This is closely tied in with number three, but deserves a separate mention. 'Blasting music - on your phone, a speaker/amplifier - at a level that can be heard by others is not ok. 'It will quickly have you labelled 'guest from hell' - among hotel staff and fellow guests. 'Dear human, what planet are you on? Do you really think the families enjoying a relaxing morning on the pool deck want to listen to the latest release from your favourite artist? I can tell you, they don't. 'In Australia, we have a term for such behaviour: Bogan. It means 'common'. 'I'm astounded that anyone would think this is ok - and yet, it happens on a fairly regular basis, all around the world. 'This also applies to hotel rooms - ensure your music/TV/any audio is at a moderate level, and not able to be heard by those in rooms adjacent to yours. 'And for anyone subject to noisy guests nearby, don't hesitate to alert hotel staff to tell them to turn the music down/off.'

Dua Lipa sizzles as she strips down to barely-there bikini for sun-soaked Ibiza holiday with pals ahead of milestone 30th birthday
Dua Lipa left fans hot under the collar on Friday as she stripped down to a sizzling bikini while sharing snaps of her Ibiza holiday. The Houdini singer, 29, took to Instagram to share her sun-soaked trip with pals to her whopping 88million followers on the platform. In one snap, Dua posed on a luxury yacht with a pal as she showed off her slim and bronzed physique as the sun shone down on them both. She donned a daring burgundy and blue two-piece bikini that left little to the imagination for the boat day on the Spanish island with her close friends. The quirky two-piece looked like she was wearing one bikini on top of the other. While enjoying the getaway, the hitmaker also took time to look after her health, as she performed a handstand on a paddle board while working on her core strength in the crystal-clear water. She captioned her pictures: 'So far - so good - sun, sea, the bestest of bestfriends, dancing til 6am, long long dinners, flamenco, BIG HUGS and a METEOR SHOWER!!!!!!! ☄️ feeling v lucky n loved.' Another snap from her summer getaway showed Dua in a white vest top paired with a sheer white skirt, which she wore as evening wear. Dua also rocked a black bikini for her sun-drenched trip, with the popstar treating fans to a variety of poses. The wholesome trip also saw Dua and her pals host a movie night under the stars, while they also enjoyed group hugs and a large sit-down dinner as the sunset. Her trip away comes ahead of her milestone 30th birthday celebrations. The latest holiday pictures come after Dua embraced a wave of nostalgia on Wednesday as she shared a sweet throwback-inspired post with her sister Rina. Posting to her Instagram Stories, Dua recreated a treasured childhood photo in which she and her sister sat back-to-back, grinning at the camera. In the updated version, the siblings struck the same pose - only this time with years of memories between them. Dua also turned up the heat as she shared a sizzling set of holiday snaps with her fiancé, Callum Turner earlier in the week. While enjoying the getaway, the hitmaker also took time to look after her health, as she performed a handstand on a paddle board while working on her core strength in the crystal-clear water She wowed in a daring custom Jacquemus knit dress that clung to her toned figure and teased glimpses of skin with its racy cut-outs. From the front, the boatneck number exuded elegance with its delicate knit shimmering with white reflective sequins. But from the back and sides, the dress set pulses racing - revealing generous flashes of skin that left little to the imagination. Callum looked every bit the leading man beside her in a crisp blue-and-white shirt and beige trousers. The pair later swapped the poolside backdrop for a beach club, where Dua continued to share loved-up moments. Alongside the carousel of snaps, she penned: 'Early birthday celebrations on my favourite island with my favourite people wearing the most gorgeous dress Simon made for me... I can't bloody wait for 30!!!!' In June, Dua publicly confirmed rumours she was engaged to Callum Turner as she shared her excitement over the actor getting down on one knee. The singer also enjoyed a feat with her friends as the Spanish sunset behind them, with a view looking out to Ibiza and beyond Dua Lipa embraced a wave of nostalgia on Wednesday as she shared a sweet throwback-inspired post with her sister Rina The hitmaker posed for the front cover of British Vogue where she looked stunning in a pale pink bra that highlighted her jaw-dropping figure In the interview, Dua discussed her family plans, saying she's concerned how having children will fit in with her career as a pop star. 'I'd love to have kids one day,' she said. 'But it's like the constant question of when would there ever be a good time – how it would fit in with my job and how it would work if I went on tour, and how much time out I'd have to take. 'I think it's just one of those things that's going to happen when it happens. I love kids, but I think there's so much more to raising a child than just loving children.'
