Bed & Breakfast in Newquay

Newquay has one of the widest choices of bed and breakfast accommodation in Cornwall, from small adults-only boutique hotels like the Carlton to traditional family-run guest houses and B&Bs with sea views. Many are on Towan Headland, Mount Wise and Narrowcliff, within walking distance of the beaches, the harbour and the town centre, so you can leave the car behind for the day.

A B&B makes an ideal base for a short break or a surfing weekend – a full Cornish breakfast before a day on the beach or the coast path, and the town’s restaurants, pubs and cafes on the doorstep in the evening.

Fistral Beach, Towan Headland & the Harbour

Just minutes from the Carlton, Fistral Beach is one of the most famous surfing beaches in the UK, with consistent Atlantic swell, surf schools, board hire, beachfront cafes and some of the best sunsets in Cornwall. Even if you don’t surf, it is a wonderful place to walk, watch the waves or eat out with a sea view.

On the other side of the headland, the old harbour still has fishing boats, seafood restaurants and boat trips, while Towan Beach, with its famous island and suspension bridge, and Great Western Beach are sheltered spots for swimming, paddling and rock pooling, right next to the town centre.
