Property was ready in time and very very clean. The location was fantastic with a short walk into the town centre and the beach. Plenty of room for all 15 of us plus 2 dogs. Had all full amenities. Nick was easily accessible and communication was great. Would highly recommend and stay here again
Bigger inside than it looks from outside. Really clean rooms and bedding. Host very accessible and answered any questions. Outside parking is restricted but a car park over the road and a fantastic location with sea views from upstairs
Beautiful spacious property in a great location for access to beaches and the town. Lots of amenities in the property and great for families/groups to spend quality time together. Some on street parking if you’re lucky but a car park on the field next door at very reasonable rates if needed. Host was easy to communicate with and the check in/check out process went smoothly. Overall, a great stay - thank you Nick for letting us stay in your lovely house
A great sized house and perfectly positioned to enjoy the local area. A few minutes walk to Fistral Beach and easy access to plenty others
Communication before our stay was quick and easy
Would highly recommend
Had a lovely stay at this property. House was perfect with lots of space. Having the extra cinema room at the back really helped with entertaining children and creating more space. Lots of room for all and lovely sea views. Convenient for Fistral beach and Newquay town centre.
The property was well located in Newquay and in a very quite location with views of the bay. The property was very well equipped and everything we needed was there. Super communication with our holiday manager and check in was effortless. Would recommend the property for large family escapes.
The property was outstanding, very modern and well equipped to keep a very large family group entertained and is located in a key spot for accessing the beaches and local attractions. Everyone thoroughly enjoyed themselves
We stayed at this property with our adult family members from the US. There were enough bedrooms to accommodate all of us comfortably and we would get together downstairs for games and to watch movies in the fab cinema room. It was a great base to explore Cornwall from. Nick answered our questions quickly and the whole process ran smoothly. I would recommend.
We returned to this property as we’d had such a good time a couple of years ago. The house works so well as the location is perfect, just above fistral bay and near to everything but not in the centre. All within walking distance. It is very well appointed, spotless and comfortable for the adults but feels relaxed enough for the kids to chill. Nick is a great communicator and easy to contact. Overall we are big fans and hope to be back soon!
We had an amazing stay at Nick’s place in Newquay! Beautifully decorated & well appointed! Our group of 10 had plenty of space and enjoyed the views of the ocean.
We had one minor mishap with a leaking shower but Nick was on it immediately. With plenty of other showers it didn’t make a dent in our stay.
Our kids loved surfing and the grandparents enjoyed walking the town. Very happy with our stay!
This property is amazing…. From the outside you can’t imagine how wonderful this property is! Every room is bigger than expected, certainly better than described there was nothing missing that we needed…. Welcome pack to extra food and drinks…our family loved it- games for the kids- views for grandma - 6 min walk to town centre ❤️
Our only problem was that the car park opposite as extra parking was not suitable for our cars ( height restrictions) you might want to watch out for that 😊
Beautiful house, large bedrooms, loads of space so you ’re not on top of each other in fact we had to check rooms to make sure no one was missing . Position of house is great not far to walk into Newquay centre, or Fistral beach was a bit worried about parking but found an app that helps to find people’s drives ( charges apply) to park cars or use car park opposite. Everything you need from a modern house & the cinema room was a massive hit from the younger members of the group. Would have loved to have booked for next year but it’s fully booked .Apart from a few niggles beginning of holiday which Nick is getting sorted it’s a 10/10
This was a family get together and this property was absolutely perfect for the 12 of us.
The property is absolutely gorgeous super clean and deceptively bigger than it looks, location fantastic, the kids absolutely loved the cinema room.
In the evenings the adults sat round the table playing games and a few drinks whilst the kids did not move from the cinema room.
We visited Falmouth, port Isaac and Padstow to name a few, we went to lane theatre for an ABBA tribute which was amazing.
We all had a go at bodyboarding which was fun and so safe as the lifeguards are brilliant on the beach. The welcome pack of beers and crisps ect was truly appreciated.
We had no problems parking on the car park across from the property free from 4pm-9am .
We had a truly amazing holiday and would not hesitate to recommend.
Thanks Nick for letting us stay at your amazing property the place is something else.
