Coastal living at its best, Newquay’s waterside location is the focal point of its appeal.
Boasting stunning beaches, seven miles of them, surfing is a daily occurrence, and all manner of water sports are available for beginners through to world-class competition events competitors.
Once known exclusively for its Cornish Pasty’s and cream scones, Newquay has become something of a food lovers haven in recent years. The famous chef Rick Stein has helped create Cornwall’s whole fine-dining phenomenon which has taken off in Newquay too.
Incredibly, with all the aforementioned positives about living in Newquay, the property is cheaper here than St Ives, Padstow, or Falmouth!
