My in-laws had treated their two adult children and their families to a family holiday to celebrate their golden wedding anniversary. It was a well overdue holiday by all accounts, and the house fitted the bill for all of us. There were 6 adults and 3 children. Plenty of room for everyone to spread out, but extra seating in the lounge would have been great, as at least one person had either had to sit on the toy box or on the floor.
The family bathroom shower was fantastic. Better than the ones at my new home !
Outside consists of an enclosed area, which was great for children. We also like the security entry rather than having to worry about a key all the time. The shower was great for the surfers amongst us - saved having to walk sand etc through the house to change. Would have been great there was a downstairs loo off the kitchen or outside.
Parking was not an issue for us, even though we had 3 large cars, and there did not appear to be a problem for other people passing with their cars.
The house is ideally situated to both town and beaches. There is a pub opposite, which inside is lovely and welcoming. Great views from the house to the sea, and sometimes a glimpse of the beaches. Close approximately to several other eateries as well, as well as a pitch n put, car parks and shops selling/hiring surf boards.

Beach View House is in an excellent location for Fistral Beach, Crazy Golf, Amusements and town. Parking for 3 cars can be a bit difficult at times if cars are parked behind the flats which back on to lane behind the house. Good pub opposite and we weren't disturbed by customers leaving at closing time. Phil the owner very obliging came at 9pm to make one of the king size beds into 2 singles. The one thing the property needs is more seating in the lounge, there aren't enough seats for 10, the only lounge seats were 2 tub chairs, 1 easy chair and a sofa which was too small for 3 adults to sit in comfort. There was 3 beanbags but we didn't think they warranted being called lounge seats, even our children didn't find them that comfortable. Sleeping 10 should also seat 10. The dining room was excellent and we would suggest that the toy box in the bay window is moved unto the dining room and a sofa put in the lounge bay window. Kitchen facilities were great but a few extra mugs would be useful. The only other minor point is that there isn't a full length mirror in the house, which most ladies would like (I think!).

A great location, really easy to walk into town or the beaches, perfect for a family holiday with teenagers. The house was very clean and homely. We loved the bean bags, eating outside, sea views and being so close to fistral. It did feel only just big enough for 10 (5 adults and 5 teens) and would have benefited from a full size dishwasher. Lovely stay.

Thoroughly recommend this property for a large family holiday, plenty of room, you don’t even need a vehicle if a beach holiday is what you are looking for, several beaches, great walks and Newquay town centre, everything is within walking distance.
Fantastic Property.
Perfect location.
Great holiday.
