“I found this family-run hotel a particularly welcoming place, moments from the sea and a short walk into Newquay. The flexible room options are great for groups or families and I noticed the staff seemed eager to ensure everyone felt at home. It is my opinion that anyone looking for a friendly base to explore Cornwall should consider this.”

Excellent Stay in Newquay

cute staff convenient location clean room
The staff was very cute. They went out of their way to help with anything I asked (special thanks to the night porter). The location was convenient, close to the sea with many great restaurants around. The room was clean. The sheets were changed daily, which I appreciated.
The corridor floors creaked a bit as people walked by.

The hotel location is good. It is close to the beach, about a 3-minute walk and just a 10-minute walk to the town centre. Parking was right outside the entrance. This made accessing the car very convenient.

The room came with tea making facilities, a pleasant surprise. Blackout curtains were also a bonus.
The hotel showed visible signs of wear, a real pity. Windows were dirty, spoiling the view from the rooms. The need for some serious maintenance seems urgent.
