Chyvounder Static Holiday Home

14/10/2026

There is a quiet magic in watching the tide roll in as the sun dips low over the horizon. 🌅✨

Whether it's an evening dip, a peaceful stroll along the shore, or simply listening to the gentle crash of the waves against the wet sand, moments like these are what stay with you long after the holiday ends.

West Cornwall showing off its calm, reflective beauty once again. 💙🌊

Nothing beats a refreshing dip with a view like this! 🏊‍♀️✨

​We spent a glorious afternoon at Marazion Beach watching the tide roll out. There’s something so peaceful about taking a swim while watching people wander across the causeway to St Michael’s Mount and seeing the boats gently ferrying visitors back and forth across the water.

​Moments like this are what West Cornwall is all about—simple, unforgettable, and right on our doorstep. 🌊💙

Whether you're taking a dip in the sea or just taking in the view, this spot never fails to restore the soul. 🌿✨

We just love the fact that Chyvounder is situated in Perranuthnoe as the beach is a gem and this evening we have it all to ourselves 😁

Imagine if THIS was your afternoon instead… 🌊🐾

Instead of:
❌ replying to emails marked “gentle reminder”
❌ pretending to care about spreadsheets
❌ eating a sad desk snack while your dog judges you

…you could be here:

🌊 sea views
🌅 coastal sunsets
🐾 sandy paws
🍷 evening drinks outside
🌾 salty sea air
🐕 dogs asleep after beach adventures
😌 absolutely nowhere important to be

Welcome to Chyvounder — a wonderfully relaxed coastal (static caravan) retreat in Cornwall where the pace of life slows down the minute you arrive.

And honestly? The combination of:
✨ sea views
✨ secure garden
✨ peaceful location
✨ dog-friendly beaches nearby

…does something medically significant to human stress levels.

This is the sort of place where:
🐾 mornings start with beach walks
🐾 afternoons disappear completely
🐾 and evenings end with everyone snoring softly by 9:14pm because apparently sea air turns adults into exhausted toddlers.

🏡 Chyvounder Coastal Retreat
🐾 Dog-friendly
🌊 Sea views
🛡️ Secure garden
🏖️ Near beautiful Cornwall beaches
😌 Proper switch-off energy

🐾 We are thrilled to officially announce that Chyvounder is part of the Pack Holidays family! 🐾

​Gail captured our story, our passion for welcoming dogs (as the primary guests!), and our love for life on the road so perfectly. We are beyond proud to be listed alongside such wonderful, truly dog-first holiday properties.

​Have a read of Gail's lovely post introducing us to The Pack below! 👇❤️

🐾 MEET THE OWNERS: MARK, CHARMAINE… AND THE VERY LOVELY DOUGHNUT 🐾

I’ve added a couple more fabulous owners to our Meet the Owners blog today, because I really do want you lovely lot to know the people behind the cottages.

Not a faceless booking system.
Not some mysterious “property management team” living in a beige office.
Actual dog people. With stories, muddy boots and, in this case, a life on the road.

Meet Mark and Charmaine, the lovely humans behind Chyvounder in Perranuthnoe, Cornwall.

Charmaine is originally from South Africa, Mark is from Horsham, and after years together in South Africa with their beloved Jack Russells, they moved back to the UK.

These days, they live in a caravan and travel around the country while running Chyvounder.

Which is either gloriously adventurous or evidence that neither of them has any interest in behaving sensibly. I approve enormously.

Mark is semi-retired, while Charmaine loves wild swimming, foraging, crafting, nature and holistic wellbeing.

Then they stumbled across Chyvounder.

And fell in love with it.

By then, their pack had gradually dwindled down to their sweet little Doughnut, but all those years of loving and living with dogs had shaped exactly what they wanted Chyvounder to be.

Not somewhere dogs are merely tolerated.

Not somewhere you’re handed seventeen rules and charged extra because your dog has apparently requested use of the spa.

A place where dogs are properly welcome.

🐾 Up to four dogs stay FREE
🐾 Private, secure garden
🐾 3-Star Reactive Dog Friendly
🐾 Just a ten-minute walk from the beach
🐾 Dogs on sofas, with a throw down
🐾 Gorgeous sea and countryside views
🐾 Peaceful, simple and wonderfully unpretentious

What I love most is that Mark and Charmaine genuinely see the dogs as the primary guests.

And honestly?

That is exactly the kind of owner I want in The Pack.

Their favourite bit is seeing guests and their dogs come back after a big day on the coast path, tired, happy and ready to flop.

Which sounds pretty bloody perfect to me.

Their Top-Dog Tip is to head out from Perranuthnoe along the South West Coast Path towards Prussia Cove or Cudden Point.

Big sea views.
Rocky coves.
Brilliant sniffs.

Then finish with a drink in a dog-friendly pub, because nature is lovely but so is sitting down.

Love,
