The MeadowField

The Meadowfield is a four-bedroom house in Newquay that sleeps 8, one of three properties in a converted chapel. Three bedrooms are on the ground floor and one is on the first floor. Two have super-king zip-and-link beds that can be made up as twins on request, and two have king beds. Every bedroom has its own smart TV.

The ground floor has a bathroom with a river rock stone sink and a large shower room with a 1.6 metre wide shower. A stairway leads up to the open-plan lounge and kitchen, with a separate WC beside the first-floor bedroom. A privately enclosed patio with garden furniture opens off one of the downstairs bedrooms. Parking is for 1 car, with an EV charger on site, and the public car park nearby takes any extra vehicle, subject to space and charges.

Towan Beach is 0.2 miles away, a 5-minute walk, and Fistral is 0.6 miles. Newquay's restaurants, bars, cinema and shops are all within walking distance, and Watergate Bay and Crantock sit inside a 4-mile radius.

Best for groups of up to eight who want to leave the car parked and walk to the sand and the town, and for families with older children, with four separate bedrooms. Less good for anyone who needs Wi-Fi, as there is none, or a dishwasher or washing machine, as there is neither. The kitchen and lounge are upstairs, so guests who struggle with stairs will find it hard.
