Headland House

A three-bedroom house on the edge of Newquay, Headland House sleeps 6 and sits close to Fistral Beach - 400 metres from the sand that hosts international surf competitions each summer. Sea views are a genuine draw here, not a marketing claim: the Juliet balcony off the first-floor lounge looks straight over the break.

The house runs across three floors. The ground floor holds a king-size bedroom, a shower room with double power shower, and a utility room with washer/dryer and storage for surfboards and beach kit. The first floor is open-plan - lounge with gas fire and French doors to the Juliet balcony, dining table, and a full kitchen with gas hob, electric oven, dishwasher, and microwave. The top floor has a second king-size room with sea views over Fistral and Newquay Golf Course, plus a twin room and a family bathroom. The south-facing enclosed garden at the rear has outdoor seating. Parking is on site, and up to 2 dogs are welcome.

Fistral Beach is dog-friendly year-round. Towan Beach in the town centre is 0.7 miles, and Crantock Beach 1 mile along the coast path. Newquay town centre with its pubs and restaurants is about a 10-minute walk. Watergate Bay is a short drive north, and Bedruthan Steps is about 7 miles up the Atlantic coast.

Best for surfers, families with dogs, and groups who want sea views with parking and beach access close by.
