Gwel An Mor

Gwel an Mor is an all-ground-floor, three-bedroom cottage on Riverside Crescent in Newquay, positioned between Crantock Beach and Fistral Beach. The property includes a piano and table tennis table - less common features for a holiday let in this area.

The layout puts three bedrooms off a central hallway: one double with en-suite shower, one double with TV and walk-in wardrobe, and one twin. A family bathroom has a bath with double shower over. The kitchen is separate from the dining room and sitting room, which has a gas fire. A utility room handles laundry with a washing machine and tumble dryer.

A front patio with outdoor seating faces the garden. Off-road parking accommodates three cars. Crantock Beach - a wide, dune-backed sandy beach where the Gannel estuary meets the sea - is 800m away. Fistral Beach, the UK's most recognised surf beach with consistent Atlantic swells, sits 900m in the other direction.

Newquay has 11 beaches in total and hosts international surf competitions at Fistral each year. The Gannel estuary, a short walk south, offers calmer water for kayaking and evening walks. Well-behaved pets are welcome at this property.

Best for families or groups wanting to walk to two beaches within 900 metres, with a piano and table tennis table for evenings in.

Nearby: Crantock Beach (800m) and Fistral (900m). See our Crantock guide for more beaches and walks in the area.
