EDITOR PICKS: BEST VALUE HOTELS IN NEWQUAY, CORNWALL

With its position at the top of the cliffs overlooking Newquay and the bay, the Legacy Hotel is in a typically grand setting evoking images of the famous seaside holidays of Victorian England. Facilities include an indoor pool and spa, and many of the comfortably furnished rooms enjoy excellent sea views. The hotel is also just a few minutes’ walk from the centre of Newquay.

The Headland Hotel is rightly judged to be one of the finest in Cornwall, with its majestic setting and incredible views over the bay. While by no means the cheapest in the area, guests find its superb amenities, including golf course, tennis courts, free wi-fi and well-reviewed restaurant to be well worth the premium.

This hotel is named after the Pentire Headland on which it sits, jutting out into the sea with all the marvellous views you would expect from coastal Cornwall. With free wi-fi, a modern fitness centre and traditional restaurant serving a bounty of great seafood, the Pentire is a great option close to Newquay’s train station, around a 20-minute walk from the town centre.

A fine budget option just to the north of Newquay’s main golf course, the Carnmarth Hotel is perfectly situated to enjoy Newquay’s various sandy beaches. The hotel includes a modern bar and terrace and is within easy reach of local facilities, but its main selling point is the view available from each room, out over the waves of Newquay Bay or the rolling greens of the nearby headland.

Porth View is well-renowned in the area as one of the most welcoming guests houses in Newquay. Service is friendly and helpful, breakfast is served either in your room or on the outdoor decking area when weather permits, and free wi-fi and free onsite parking are available. The surrounding area offers some of the best walking routes in the south west of England, around the rugged coastline of northern Cornwall.
