A courtyard and balcony provides a place to enjoy a relaxing drink, before heading out for dinner and with a family pub right on the beach, you won't have far to go!

Boatman's Loft is perfect for a beach break. With three beaches near by, the great location means that you don't have to travel to the busy beaches in Newquay itself. The apartment is lovely and quiet, clean and comfortable - perfect for our family of 3. (Having two bathrooms was a bonus!)

Beaches
Porth
The sandy, sheltered Porth beach is one of Newquay's finest, and with a vast expanse of sand and plenty of rock pools at low tide, it's perfect for a family day at the beach. It's also lifeguarded between 10am and 6pm during the summer months. To the east of the beach you'll find Porth Island, featuring evidence of an iron age settement, and accessible only via a narrow foot bridge!
Whipsiderry
Whipsiderry is great for exploring, with plenty of rock pools to keep you busy. Although the steps down to the beach are a little tricky to negotiate, it's well worth the journey. Plus - this beach is dog friendly all year!
Things to do
Walking
One of the best walks is the coastal path, you can follow this to Watergate Bay, and if you're up to it, all the way to Mawgan Porth. You'll experience breathtaking views, and if you're lucky, you may even see some sea life!
Shopping
Roo's Beach, in Porth, is a high-end fashion and lifestyle shop where you'll find stylish clothes, shoes, make-up, stationary, candles, crockery, blankets and more.
Further afield, Newquay high street has a range of shops where you'll find everything you need from food, to toiletries, to gifts.
Other activities
If you're looking for something more active to do, you can try out zorbing at Cornwall Zorbing Park.
Alternatively, if relaxation is what you're looking for, the spa at Sands resort is open to the public.

Excellent location for beaches however the apartment could do with some tlc feels like someone’s lived there and left all their belongings. And outdoor furniture is dangerous and un usable if you have children.

Reply from Aspects Holidays
Thank you for your helpful feedback. We are pleased to report that following your feedback, the owners have now ordered new sofas and the outside furniture has been attended to. Unfortunately, being left outside and exposed to the sea air, they can deteriorate quite quickly, but we are very sorry that we had not been aware until you had mentioned this. Thanks for letting us know and we hope that you enjoyed the amazing location of Boatman's Loft. Tanya, Customer Services
Great little apartment, so close to Whipsderry beach, and Porth.
We are a family of 4 (two girls 11 & 7) this suited us fine. Close to surf schools and close enough to Newquay if you wanted to pop in or avoid you could do either.
Apartment well equipped. Nice and quite so perfect for a family
