Fistral Bay Cottage

Fistral Bay Cottage is a four-bedroom house on Bezant Place in the Pentire area of Newquay, sleeping 8 across 3 bathrooms. The rear garden has a lawn, decking, and a BBQ. Inside, the kitchen has a dishwasher and washing machine. Off-road parking and WiFi are included. The property carries 73 reviews on Sykes.

Fistral Beach is 400m from the front door - Cornwall's most prominent surf beach, hosting the Boardmasters festival each August and with two surf schools operating year-round. Towan Beach in Newquay town centre is 1.2km east and Crantock Beach 1.6km south across the Gannel estuary.

Pentire headland sits between Fistral and the Gannel and provides a 2-mile circular cliff walk with views north to Watergate Bay and south toward Crantock. Newquay town centre, with its restaurants, bars, and railway station, is a 20-minute walk from the property along the coastal path.

Best for larger groups and families who want a surf beach under 5 minutes on foot. No pets allowed. Not great for those avoiding the summer crowds that Fistral draws, or for groups needing more than 8 beds.

The cottage sleeps 8 across 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms, with a Saturday changeover. WiFi, off-road parking, a dishwasher, a washing machine, and a BBQ are all included. Crantock Beach is 1.6km south across the Gannel - a sandy, dune-backed beach that tends to be quieter than Fistral on peak weekends. The property holds 73 guest reviews on Sykes at a 4-star rating.
