Couple's Cosy Cottage

RachelRating, 5 stars2 months ago
Rebecca is a wonderful host, we struggled to find it as the postcode doesn't take you exactly there. I rang Rebecca and she directed us straight there, so helpful and so friendly. The cottage was so clean and welcoming. We took our pug and our cat and both enjoyed themselves. The log burner was a treat and the bedroom upstairs really nice. We would definitely recommend this cottage and would return.

We had a very nice stay at Verity's accomodation. We arrived late at night but she still greeted us and showed us everything we need. The accomodation is in a very nice and calm location a 5 min drive from the Newquay and Crantock beaches. Overall can only recommend staying here!

Seaside Bungalow

ChereneRating, 5 stars8 months ago
Lovely 5 night stay at Lucy’s bungalow. Lucy was really helpful and kept in contact and let us know that we could get in a bit earlier. The bungalow was clean and well equipped for our stay with little things like an iron, airer and fridge/freezer that make life easier. The beds were comfy and the location was peaceful. There were thorough instructions in the bungalow and recommendations. The bungalow itself is a little way out of St Ives but only a ten min drive and 5 mins to Carbis Bay. There is also a bus stop at the site and a nearby train station that offers park and ride which is great for taking in stunning views along the coast. We had a lovely time and would happily return to this accommodation.

Your guide to Crantock

Welcome to Crantock

Located two miles south of England’s surfing capital of Newquay — one of the most famous spots in Cornwall — Crantock is a small village and beach that feels a world apart. While that big, lively resort with its nightlife and shopping is just on the other side of the Gannel Estuary, Crantock is a mild-mannered enclave of thatched cottages, an ancient pub, a church, and a surf shop. Behind the village is Crantock’s gorgeously unspoilt beach, where turquoise water, rock pools, dunes, and caves conjure a slice of coastal heaven. There’s good surf here, too, with lifeguard cover from late May to September, as well as a nice cafe. Plenty more similarly lovely coves lie along the South West Coast Path, including pristine Polly Joke, then the wider Holywell Bay, popular with swimmers and surfers. You’re in a great position here for exploring this magnificent county.


The best time to stay in a holiday rental in Crantock

Summer is a heavenly time to be in Cornwall, when the weather is glorious and the beaches are as nice as any in the Caribbean or Mediterranean. Wildflowers fill the grasslands of Pentire Point West in spring, and fields of brilliant red poppies bloom in June and July. However, many prefer the lack of crowds and bigger surf waves of the off-season. In winter, stronger winds and bigger swells attract committed wave jockeys. The hire shop at the beach rents winter wetsuits. Famous spots nearby are very busy in peak season, especially during school holidays, but there’s always somewhere to escape to in Crantock. Summer festivals include the mega Boardmasters Surf, Skate and Music Festival in August on Fistral Beach, and Tunes in the Dunes at Perranporth.


Top things to do in Crantock

The Gannel Estuary

Between the West Pentire Headland and Crantock, and the Pentire headland and Newquay on the other side, runs the Gannel Estuary, a shallow tidal river where schooners and barges once carried cargoes of coal and timber. On this south side, a footpath runs beside a strip of beach, fun for families. Spot wading egrets, trout skipping through the water, and evidence of old boatyards and moorings.

Piper’s Hole

A crevice in the rocks at the southern end of Crantock Beach is abundant with seabirds, and at low tide it’s possible to explore a cave here to see some 100-year-old rock carvings of animals and a human profile.

Concrete Waves

Skateboarders should go for a session at this superb skatepark in Newquay, considered one of the best in the United Kingdom. And best of all, it’s free! Even if you’ve never pulled an ollie, it’s a fun spot to watch the local talent perfect their tricks on the street run, bowl, stair set, and retro-style pool.
