Darth Vader Posted June 23, 2010 Share Posted June 23, 2010 There is no such thing. The only reasonably priced, clean, good accommodation you will find in near Newquay in August, is your own tent on a campsite on the outskirts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrannyGranny Posted June 23, 2010 Share Posted June 23, 2010 Exactly, its full of stag/hen do's during the weekend and posh London/SE kids staying at daddy's holiday home during the week. Its tacky, crowded & overpriced. There are much nicer parts of the SW to visit which have better beaches/surf/accommodation etc... The area around Fowey is lovely or Ilfracombe/Woolacombe. For accommodation try owners direct website for self catering. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GrannyGranny Posted June 24, 2010 Share Posted June 24, 2010 Its probably not as bad as I paint it. i just think there are nicer places which haven't been as spoilt in a commercial way. South wales is fantastic, both the Gower & Pembrokeshire. Saying that I go to mid Wales (Aberdovey) most years and love it. I have 3 kids aged 10, 7 & 3.

Yes it has nightlife, but it's certainly not Blackpool or Skegness. To the OP, there are some really nice campsites (try Trevornick, just outside), which are very reasonable, have good beaches etc with facilities for kids. One of their Eurotents (prepitched, very high standard tent with loads of room) will cost you about £400 in July I think. You pay more for central Newquay but thats the same with any tourist resort.

lily1979 Posted July 15, 2010 Share Posted July 15, 2010 I've just flown down to Newquay airport and stayed in Perranporth, a lovely little seaside place, it has a caravan park 5 minutes up the road called Perransands which i've stopped in before but this time we stopped in a hotel bang at the side of the beach called Seinors, it was £80 a night for a double room but a think a family room for 4 was £99. Price included breakfast which was a full english, salmon and scrambled eggs on muffins etc. It is about 20 minutes away from Newquay but a lovely place and beach, lovely to take children. Not much nightlife at all e.g nightclubs but some lovely pubs and one on the beach called the Watering hole which has live bands on at the weekend and BBQ's etc, that was a family pub, we loved it. We didn't want to come home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
