Frequently Asked Questions
Which beach is best for families?
Porth Beach and Tolcarne Beach are excellent for families as they are sheltered, offer plenty of sand for building castles, and have good facilities nearby. Crantock Beach (across the Gannel) is also fantastic for families who want a huge expanse of sand and dunes away from the town centre.
Is Newquay suitable for families?
Absolutely. While the town centre has a lively nightlife, the surrounding areas like Porth, Lusty Glaze, and Crantock are peaceful and family-focused. With the Zoo, Aquarium, and seven sandy beaches, it is one of the best playgrounds for children in the UK.
Can I take my dog to the beach?
Yes, Newquay is very dog-friendly. Fistral Beach, Great Western, and Towan Beach allow dogs year-round. Other beaches may have seasonal restrictions (usually 10 am to 6 pm from mid-May to September), but you can always find a spot for a walk, especially on the Gannel Estuary.
Do any properties have swimming pools?
Yes! We have select luxury properties, such as 'Heron House' overlooking the Gannel Estuary, which feature a private heated indoor swimming pool alongside a hot tub. This offers a true resort-style experience for families looking for that extra touch of luxury.
Is Newquay good for surfing beginners?
It is the best place in the country to learn. Fistral Beach and Towan Beach have excellent surf schools with qualified instructors who can get you standing up on a board safely. The variety of beaches means there is usually a sheltered spot with smaller waves, perfect for novices.
