Cottage vacation rentals in Newquay

Lovely few days in half term with the kids. Unable to use the hot tub as weather was relentless and was windy and wet. Driveway is a bit ropey so careful if your car is low to the ground! Hosts were really helpful and even had a visit from one of the cats!

Had an absolutely perfect stay at Helen and Tim's peaceful cottage in Polperro. It was cosy, comfortable and just what we needed for a relaxing few days away. The hot tub was a particular highlight! Would definitely stay again!

We had a wonderful stay at Shaun’s cottage in Saint Newlyn East. The space was exactly as described — clean, cosy, and thoughtfully set up, with everything we needed for a comfortable stay as a small family. It was perfect for me, my wife, and our 5-month-old son. The location is peaceful and ideally situated for exploring the coast and nearby towns, yet still close enough to amenities when needed. Shaun was a responsive and helpful host, offering clear instructions and making us feel welcome from the start. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a quiet, charming base in Cornwall!

This place was simply stunning. The house itself was so spacious and well set up. We lived the addition of the hot tub and table tennis table - all perfect distractions when the weather is not reliable :) Communication with Julian was excellent and any little queries that we had on arrival were sorted almost immediately. Great hosting. We will absolutely be back to stay in this wonderful place. Thank you

Our family of four had a great few days here. Absolutely beautiful setting and convenient to lots of places to see. Hot tub a real plus!! Great hosts as well

Accommodation was beautiful and perfectly clean, even more lovely than the photos would suggest! The cottage was situated in a peaceful location but within driving distance to main attractions. The amenities in the cottage were perfect for a cozy night in and hosts were quick to respond regarding any enquiries. The bed was extremely comfortable and with the sauna and hot tub we couldn’t decide if we should stay in and enjoy the accommodation or go out to explore Cornwall!

Lovely place, very clean, we loved the decor 🐝! Hot tub is excellent! Great location. Everything is easy to reach. Host is very communicative and friendly. She gave us very good recommendations. I would recommend to stay at her home:)

We really enjoyed our stay and our accommodation was perfect. I have a long list of what was great! 1. Parking outside the house - great for unloading 2. Doggy friendly 3. Secure garden for dogs 4. Great outdoor space with covered area for food prep and a bbq. Outdoor fire, table and chairs. Really pretty garden, which we found lovely to relax with a drink after some lovely long walks! 5. The coastal path is literally 2 mins away from the house! The coastal paths are stunning! 6. Short walk into St Agnes, which has some really lovely restaurants. We went to 3 different ones during our stay and the food was delicious and the staff were super friendly. Great for vegan food also, loads of choice! I must say the vegan Cornish pasties, bread and carrot cake were delicious! 7. The house was clean, and the bed was comfy. Great books on bookshelf. 8. Lovely indoor wood burner Kate left us some Prosecco, fresh bread and butter in the fridge! Highly recommend!

A wonderful base to explore North Cornwall, the cottage is well equipped and very comfortable and in a very quiet location. Erik was very helpful and responded to any queries I had very promptly.

The cottage is simply gorgeous. It is cozy, stylish and most importantly spotless clean! The village is cute too, beautiful path to walk the dog, mine engine stacks add charm to the location and the cottage is on the hill so the view from the windows is beautiful. We loved that Catherine left necessities for breakfast in the fridge , it was very thoughtful and kind of her. Thank you for everything, we had a great stay

Had a great stay, lovely area, accommodation was perfect for us, would consider it again when visiting our favourite part of the world. Plus perfect host.

Came down for a family wedding nearby and location was perfect for us. The farmhouse was cozy, welcoming and spacious. The beds were comfy, so much so we all overslept on checkout morning. Facilities, especially in the kitchen were ideal for us. We would love to come again, next time for longer so we can explore the local area more thoroughly and probably with the dog who missed out this time. Thanks for having us to stay.

The cottage is in a lovely location with great views from one of the double bedrooms and the conservatory and driveway. It felt very homely with the fire very useful, comfy sofas, thick stone walls. Kitchen is a little small but has everything needed, and has a spacious dining area attached. Comfortably fits 6, even 7 with sofa bed, though the two single bed mattresses feel a bit old. It was at a discounted price however with some more work said to be needed. Lovely woodland walk on the doorstep and coast very close. Very quiet and peaceful. Didn’t find pre-warned damp much of an issue. Amy was helpful and attentive though being in a different time zone. Appreciated the private space. A good find.

Had such a wonderful time at the cottage. Very clear instructions on how to get to and into the property, it was spotless and Karen was always on hand via messaging to give any answers to any questions we had quickly and prompted. It's a beautiful property with so much character and comfortable beds in a stunning location. Cannot fault our experience and for the accommodation it was incredible value. Would definitely stay there again. Thank you Karen for such a wonderful stay!

We had a fantastic time at Jenny’s lovely cottage! Jenny is kind and helpful, and communicated throughout to make our stay as pleasant as possible. The cottage is beautifully decorated and the garden and location is a little peace of heaven. Small mishap with the cleaning at arrival, but quickly resolved with a very friendly housekeeper. Thank you so much for having us, we’ll be back soon!

We had the most incredible time staying at Paradise Cottage; it truly lives up to its name. The cottage itself is absolutely beautiful: cosy and full of character. Every detail made it feel like a home away from home. The farm is just magical. Our boys were in heaven from the moment we arrived—free to explore, meet the animals, and enjoy the outdoors in a way that’s hard to find elsewhere. They’re already asking when we can go back! Sarah is the most wonderful host, so warm, welcoming, and thoughtful. Her whole family made us feel welcome. Her daughter is an amazing little girl—she took our boys under her wing, introducing them to the animals, letting them help feed and put them to bed. She’s so kind, caring, and naturally brilliant with children. When one of our boys was feeling under the weather, Sarah was incredibly understanding and caring, going out of her way to support us. We had the most wonderful time and can’t wait to go back! Thank you Sarah and Family!

Lovely place as a base for a great holiday in Cornwall with the family!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay - our second visit and perfectly situated for visiting our sister lives nearby. We loved the accommodation and found Maria and her husband to be on hand and very helpful. We will book again when next visiting Cornwall.

Claire and Chris were extremely hospitable and flexible. We arrived at a rather unsociable hour, but they were both more than understanding and welcoming. This little gem is spotless and fresh, with tasteful decor and a timeless Cornish cottage feel. Claire left some great snacks etc which were most welcome after a long drive. The location is great, too, with the A30 literally a few minutes drive away, and super close to the lively Lanivet Inn. Couldn’t recommend enough for both tourists, and (once!) locals coming back to Cornwall to visit.

Very shortly after arriving I received a very warm welcome from Ian and Clare. I could park directly next to the cottage, which had a lovely secure & compact garden, so I knew the dogs were safe & sound. The well-maintained and good-sized paddock is brilliant for the dogs to have a quick runaround & chase the toys that can be borrowed from inside the well-equipped laundry room. Wren Cottage was pristine, with everything needed for a warm & comfortable stay. There are two very comfortable armchairs. There was always hot water and plenty of storage space in the kitchen. The dog biscuits & human treats were an unexpected and very welcome touch. The maps and local information package was very useful. The cottage is only a 10-15-min walk from the beautiful St Nectan's Glen, and a little further down the road, you can pick up the coast path & walk through Rocky Valley and into Tintagel. There is a shorter route to Tintagel if preferred. Boscastle & other places v accessible by car & bus.

Absolutely amazing time spent at Bumblebee cottage! Felt very cozy and relaxed and was very well stocked with everything we could need for our stay! There were even 2 big blankets in the living room for us to use! Julie & Mark were both lovely and very helpful (and meeting their two staffs made the visit even better! Such sweet and friendly pups!) Thank you again for having us! Would 100% recommend to anyone wanting to stay in that area!

A beautiful gem in a fabulous serene location near so many brilliant places in Cornwall. Perfectly furnished and thoughtful set up. Super helpful and friendly host - down to getting the bbq ready for us and being able to hose down wetsuits on site plus lots of great local recommendations - plus very quick responses and let us know we could check in early. Could not recommend enough (except to ensure there’s some availability next summer so we can return!). Exactly what we needed and such a stunning private garden too - ideal if you are bringing a furry friend. Many thanks and hope to be back soon

We had an amazing time with our two young kids here. The house was lovely, with a large garden to play in. It's located a short 10 min walk from the village that has a shop etc, and is conveniently located to get to other local areas by car. Pen and Patrick were very helpful with local recommendations each day, and helpfully replenished the firewood whenever we asked. We'd definitely come back again.

Really enjoyed staying here, although just a weekend break I would happily stay for longer. It is so peaceful. There is a great pub, the Smugglers Den, down the lane which is walkable. We specifically stayed here for a Fishermen’s Friend concert in Perranporth, which we also walked to! the walk is well worth it and Perranporth itself is a fantastic place to visit. All in all Becky’s place is in a great location if you want peace and quiet but easily accessible to all the area has to offer.
