White cottages sit in the hillsides and fishing boats bob in the harbour which paints the image of Greece. In the village there are steep streets to amble down filled with charming houses, shops and galleries. The history of Polperro is smuggling, particularly during the 18th and 19th centuries - and there's even a museum dedicated to it. The best beach near Polperro is generally considered to be Talland Bay - one person even called it the "most beautiful place in Cornwall." It's also where you'll find Polperro Holiday Park, which sits slightly inland - but it's just a six-minute drive to the harbour. The holiday park is surrounded by countryside with views across Talland Bay. Visitors can stay in chalets or caravans, which vary from bronze all the way to gold and platinum. The 'Gold Plus' caravan is the more luxurious with a spacious interior as well as a decking area to enjoy the summer sun. It also comes with super-fast internet and all the modern amenities needed for a holiday. 50 'coolest' places to live in the UK revealed & there's a surprise at the top 5 Polperro Holiday Park looks over Talland Bay Credit: Park Holidays 5 Inside is a swimming and paddling pool Credit: Park Holidays Some of the accommodation is pet-friendly, and all come with a kitted-out kitchen, TV, and entertainment passes (included with direct bookings). At Polperro Holiday Park there's a family bar, a restaurant and an indoor pool which has recently been refurbished. There's a children's play park, crazy golf course, amusement arcade, club house and a paddling pool. As for entertainment there are live stage shows, pottery, Bingo and shows for kids. From the holiday park, you can not only explore Polperro, but also get to the Eden Project and Land's End. The closest large town is Looe, which has seen a huge boost since the airing of BBC's Beyond Paradise. The beaches of Looe as well as Fore Street near the East Looe River are popular locations for filming. The Grade II listed Guildhall doubles as the Shipton Abbott Police Station.
