Gannel Hideaway

Gannel Hideaway is a ground-floor 1-bedroom studio in Newquay, on the Penmere Drive side of town, sleeping 2 with 1 bathroom and an enclosed garden terrace. The address puts it on the quieter residential edge rather than in the centre - useful for a couple who want access to the beaches without the town-centre noise.

The studio has wifi, parking, and a garden. No dishwasher or washing machine. Fuel and power costs are included in the rental. Changeover is Friday. The cottage rated 3 from 9 Sykes reviews - worth reading before booking.

Fistral Beach is 800m - a flat 10-minute walk. The Pentire headland starts at the southern edge of Fistral and gives cliff walks with views north up the coast and south across the Gannel. Crantock Beach is 1km; in summer a foot ferry crosses the Gannel estuary, saving the road loop via Crantock village. Towan Beach and the harbour are about 1km in the other direction.

Best for a couple wanting a simple, well-located base for beach walking, with parking included and Fistral on foot. Less good for those who expect washing facilities, a full kitchen setup, or a high-spec finish - the 3-star Sykes rating reflects a functional rather than premium property.
