Nick is a thoughtful host and always on hand if needed and the arrival treats are very thoughtful and welcome. This was our second visit and were now planning our third. We parked 3 cars outside easily too. Thank you Nick.

The large garden is a big plus for us with having a dog but is also great to have BBQâs and make the most of the good weather. The cottage has everything you need for a fantastic stay in Newquay. This was our 3rd stay and wonât be the last. Thanks again for looking after us Nick!

The welcome flowers and treats were much appreciated after our long journeys. Could not fault the peaceful location and parking. Town and beaches were easily walkable to (e-bike park just round the corner too). As a party of 8 adults there was everything that we needed; especially liked was a kitchen that had enough crockery and cooking utensils to cater from scratch and serve on a family table together (unlike other properties that we have stayed with same numbers). The additional fridge was a blessing when the supermarket delivery arrived. We also found the un-interrupted hot water a god-send; not only when getting ready to go out but after some surfing & coasteering and long walks, no one was anxious about being last in queue! We may not of had a week of 100% glorious sunshine but when it did show and we were not out and about, the decking area is indeed a sun trap and much enjoyed. Nick is a great host and extremely helpful.
