Newquay in General

This summer was the third time I've visited Newquay, but I've never stayed there before. I've always loved the town as it is Cornwall most civilised place, much better if you like a bit of civilisation rather than rural idyll. First time I visited I was holiday in Polzeath, and second time in Mevagissey. They have a really good direct bus service from Mevaggisey all the way to Newquay, very useful if you haven't got much transport. Anyway back to Newquay in 2009, I booked a very late house right in the centre of Newquay, the house was called "Hobart House", and by booking last minute, got it very cheap. The house was lovely, sleeps eight in four ...  Read the complete review

Until a year ago I had never been to Newquay, but it is the surfing capital of England used predominantly for national and international competitions. The main beach for this is Watergate which is still considered part of Newquay despite being a good 5+ miles away. Until last year, my wife and her kids loved Trevone a little further along the coast but still considered one of the beaches and was pretty good for body boarding. I know that Newquay, Bude and Ilfracombe are the best areas (supposedly) for surfing, but of the 3 I've only ever seen big waves at Ilfracombe. Driving into Newquay there's a few areas on the front which look very ...  Read the complete review
