Fistral beach Penthouse, Newquay

Fistral Beach Penthouse is a third-floor, three-bedroom apartment in Newquay with sea views through floor-to-ceiling glazing, 300 metres from the beach.

The main suite has a king-size bed, en-suite bathroom and a Bose Wave System III. A second king-size room and a twin room both open onto a furnished terrace, and the kitchen has granite worktops, a wine cooler and dining space for six. Wi-Fi and parking are included. There is no dishwasher, washing machine, private garden, hot tub or EV charger, and dogs are not accepted, so this suits a group happy to eat out or self-cater simply rather than run a full kitchen for a week.

Fistral Beach is 300 metres away, with surf schools operating from the sand for beginners and regular competitions through the season. Crantock Beach and Towan Beach are both 0.9 miles away across the Gannel Estuary. The Crantock guide covers the quieter village on the opposite bank, reachable by foot ferry at low tide.

Seven Booking.com reviews give the penthouse a rating of 9 out of 10. Prices start from £382 a night, rising to £2,266 in peak weeks. **Best for:** a group of up to six wanting three bedrooms, sea views and Fistral within 300 metres. **Less good for:** guests needing a lift or verified step-free access, dog owners, or anyone wanting a full self-catering kitchen with a dishwasher and laundry.
