The Hayloft

The Hayloft is a 2-bedroom cottage in Watergate Bay, sleeping 4 across one bathroom, a sitting room with wood burner and open fire, and a private garden with BBQ. The beach at Watergate Bay is 700m on foot - a long, broad surf beach with consistent Atlantic swells that draws both beginners taking lessons and experienced surfers. Whipsiderry Beach is 0.9 miles and Tolcarne Beach is 2 miles, putting several distinct coves within easy reach without a car.

The wood burner and open fire make this a solid off-season option, not just a summer let - the garden and BBQ extend its usefulness into late spring and early autumn. Dogs are welcome, parking is included, and there's a dishwasher and washing machine for longer stays. WiFi is available.

Watergate Bay sits north of Newquay on the north Cornish Atlantic coast. The bay is quieter than Newquay's town beaches, which is part of its appeal for guests who want space to walk, run, or let dogs off the lead without navigating crowds. Newquay itself - with its shops, restaurants, and rail connection - is around 10 minutes by road.

This property is best for couples or small families who want a proper surf-beach base with indoor comfort when the weather turns. It sleeps exactly 4, so it is less suited to groups of 5 or more.
