The guest house was suitably located with all amenities just a few minutes walk, but not close enough to hear the hustle & bustle from the town. We had room 1 which was a perfect size for a 5 night stay, the rooms are clean well decorated and had everything we needed. The continental breakfast choice was varied and very enjoyable the family that run the guest house are very friendly and could not try and harder so we enjoyed our stay. I would Highley recommend staying here if you are visiting Newquay.

What a fantastic little place! Very friendly staff who always made sure we were happy with everything in the room, very accommodating with everything :) The breakfast is such a lovely touch with meat and cheese boards with a large range of breakfast cereal and the option to have a traditional Cornish pasty was a lovely touch The rooms were very clean and equipped with everything you would need on a holiday stay. The location of the bnb was a 2 minute walk from one of the biggest beaches as well as being a 5 minute walk from Newquay town centre, loads of places to eat near by as well as convenience stores. Overall a wonderful stay and would definitely come back again and recommend!!
