Trelantis, 5 Gwelva

Trelantis sits at 5 Gwelva on the Pentire headland, 500m from Fistral and with sea views across the Atlantic from the upper floors. The 4-bedroom townhouse sleeps 8 in 3 bathrooms and is available from £579 per night. The position between Fistral and the Gannel estuary means guests can reach two distinct beach environments on foot.

Crantock Beach is 1.3km south across the Gannel - a wide, sheltered bay that attracts families looking for calmer water than the surf breaks at Fistral. Towan Beach, in the heart of Newquay, is 1.5km to the east. The house is dog-friendly with an enclosed garden and off-road parking. The kitchen includes a dishwasher and washing machine, and WiFi is provided throughout.

This property works for groups of 6 to 8 who want a Newquay surf town base within easy reach of Fistral without paying the premium rates of a direct oceanfront property. The 3-bathroom layout reduces queuing for larger groups, which is a practical consideration at this capacity. Ideal for mixed surf and non-surf groups who want sea views, a garden, and dog-friendly access in a well-connected headland location. Less suited to those wanting a rural setting or properties with a hot tub, as neither is available here.
