What better way to make the most of the Twixmas period than with a family new year’s break in Cornwall?
After the busy Christmas festivities have ended you deserve some time to just play and chill out and let someone else take care of the rest.
Visit us at Sands Resort Hotel on Cornwall’s North coast and make yourself at home in our spacious 2-room suites. Enjoy delicious local food, the warm indoor pool with steam room, our spa, play rooms, hobby clubs and complimentary childcare sessions as well as a fun packed holiday entertainment programme for all the family.
Take a day trip to explore the wintery coast, admire the Christmas lights in Mousehole or go ice skating at the famous Eden Project. There is so much do see and do in Cornwall this winter.
Twixmas & New Year’s Breaks at Sands Resort
During your family break you’ll wake up with a stunning sea or country view before being spoilt for choice at our breakfast buffet. Just have one of each – you’re on holiday!
Afterwards sit back in our Beachcomber Lounge, hot drink in hand and enjoy views of the Atlantic Ocean. Get pampered with a spa treatment or try out our Moroccan Spa Experience whilst the kids are having fun at our kids’ clubs.
In the afternoon get all the family together for a splashing time in the pool, step outside for some fresh sea air and return to Sands Resort to have a laugh with Billy Wiz the magician or Jules the Ventriloquist as part of our holiday entertainment programme.
Twixmas & New Year’s Kids Club Fun
Children 8 years or older love our O-zone Club. It’s is the place to be to make new friends, take part in PlayStation tournaments, team challenges and games or just watch a film together. On Sunday O-Zoners can decorate (and eat) their own ice cream as part of our Chocolate Extravaganza and Movie night. Mmmh.
Our Adventure Club is for children aged 4 – 7 and offers pirate parties, karaoke nights, arts and craft sessions as well as lots of play time at the club and in our soft play room. Build a bird house, sun catcher or sea life mobile. Decorate a biff bat or glam up your fancy dress sunglasses with feathers and diamonds. There is something for everyone!
In the Nippers & Pirates Crèche for 0 – 3 -year olds, babies and toddlers can make the most of all the toys and books available and there is even a ball pool.

Twixmas & New Year’s Entertainment for adults
Once the little ones have gone to bed, take advantage of our complimentary baby listening service and enjoy a dinner for two or catch up over a drink whilst enjoying live music from Mountain Ash or Andy Marshall. On Saturday, 29th December we also offer a quiz night for adults. Who can answer more questions? You or your other half?

‘Night at the Oscars’ New Year’s Eve Celebrations
On New Year’s Eve we’ll see in 2019 with our “Night at the Oscars” themed party for all the family.
Entertainment starts right after breakfast with our Hobby Club where children can decorate their 2019 T-shirt before embarking on our exciting movie themed scavenger hunt at 12 pm. Meet at reception – all the family is welcome!
Take some time in the afternoon to relax and get your outfits ready for the big night and at 6 pm our big children’s fancy dress kicks off in the Atlantic Suite. Dress up as your favourite movie character or wear your best costume or just come as you are. Whatever you choose, just make sure, you have lots of fun!
And don’t forget to have your red-carpet photo taken in our photo booth!
From 8 pm all kids are welcome to our New Year’s Disco where DJ Martin Holmes will play all your favourite tunes. Children who are attending the evening kids’ clubs will be taken to the disco by our childcare team.
Movie themed 4-course dinner
A “Night at the Oscars” certainly requires a glamorous dinner and we will serve you a scrumptious 4-course (and movie themed) dinner. We warmly recommend to sample one of our delicious New Year’s cocktails too!
Dine with the family or take the kids to our “Early Family Supper”. Then later in the evening treat yourself to a New Year’s Dinner for two. Our friendly childcare team can take care of your little ones.
Disco & Casino night
After your glamorous dinner it’s time to visit our Casino and try your luck at Roulette, Black Jack or Dice. You might win a lovely bottle of Champagne.
Or if you feel like dancing visit the disco in the Atlantic Suite for a boogie and of course for the midnight countdown to ring in the new year.
In the morning start the new year with a hearty breakfast and if you’re brave enough, a Cornwall New Year’s Swim. Or just drop off the children at the kids’ club and treat yourself to a lie-in. It’s your holiday too!
