“I noted the proximity to both Fistral Beach and the Newquay town centre. I'd say it's more than a convenient location; it's a gateway to the area's best attractions. The hotel seemed family-run, which, for me, suggests a commitment to service that larger establishments sometimes miss.”

The breakfast had a good variety. Customising the breakfast was possible. The staff were friendly, and the lounge and bar area was spacious. I also liked the games room with pickleball, and free surf equipment hire was available.

The room I stayed in was small. Soundproofing was not good as I could hear hallway noise. Carpets were stained, and walls needed cleaning and paint.

The location proved fantastic. The sky mural behind the headboard in my room was beautiful. The sound of crashing waves was soothing. Falling asleep and waking up to it was so peaceful.

The basic loungers on the balcony were a bit too simple.
