Or for a surfy style beach break, go to Watergate Bay in Cornwall. Contemporary & stylish surroundings, excellent location, (Jamie Oliver 'Fifteen restaurant nearby...you may need to book), excellent babysitting service, Mothers' Kitchenette with microwave and fridge open 24 hrs. Fantastic food & location to die for. http://www.takethefamily.com/stay/cornwall/watergate_bay/
