Penthouse 53 Zinc (Sleeps 8)

Penthouse 53 Zinc is a top-floor apartment in the 53 Zinc development in Newquay, sleeping 8 across 4 bedrooms with sea views and Fistral Beach 0.7km away. At GBP565 per night, this works out at around GBP71 per person for a group of eight - positioning it firmly in the large-group or multi-family bracket.

The en-suite master bedroom and an en-suite twin each have their own balcony with views across the golf course and towards the beach. A third bedroom has bunk beds and sea views plus a workspace. A mezzanine level above the dining area sleeps 2 further guests but is suitable for children aged 12 and over only. The open-plan kitchen and living area faces Fistral. The apartment has a dishwasher, washing machine, wifi, and allocated parking.

Fistral is one of the UK's best-known surf beaches - the ASP World Surf League contests have been held here. Towan Beach is also 0.7km, Great Western Beach 1.1km. Newquay town centre and the Blue Reef Aquarium are within a 10-minute walk. No dogs are permitted.

Best for large family groups or groups of friends who want a high-spec apartment with genuine sea views within walking distance of Fistral's surf. Less good for families with children under 12, who cannot use the mezzanine sleeping area safely.
