Fistral Quay Reviews

A really homely welcoming property. Plenty of room for 10 of us & really well equipped. Hosts were excellent in their welcome & information. Fab stay, thank you
Only facility missing is washing machine and outside tap to wash off sandwetsuits. Otherwise, great location, great house, great hosts. Julian and Anna.
Great location with everything you'll need for your stay provided! Owners even provided extras which was greatly appreciated. Its well equipped for children, we had a 6 month old and they had high chair, cot and stair gates which helped tremendously. The house was very clean and would recommend this place to anyone. We'll definitely be going back. Thankyou!
This is our second stay at the house its a beautiful house with perfect location and a 5 minute walk to the harbour. The only thing I would say that could be improved is a later check out 1010.30am With check in at 4pm and check out at 9am you loose a day and when travelling far its a early morning to be packed up and out and a tiring drive home.
Philip
Fistral Quay is a lovely place to stay, located near to the town and amenities. Its warm and welcoming with all the comforts of home. I would highly recommend and will look to stay here again.
Malcolm
We had a great time at Fistral Quay. I can't thank Chris enough for making our stay very enjoyable. The house is very well located. We had a great time and the kids loved the hot tub and the use of the belly boards. It's very close to the beech and there is lots to do.
Lovely cottage and fabulous location its so close to the beaches and shops. Having the hot tub is great. Contact from owner before arrival was helpful and the bottle of Prosecco was a lovely treat. The weather was really awful the day we arrived and we were able to access the property slightly earlier, which was brilliant. Note the property is near a pub, which was noisy some evenings. There is also a check out time of 9am!
Lovely place to stay, everything you could need was supplied, idea location close to the beach, shops, bars and restaurants, good communication with the owners who were lovely. The property is located across from a pub which is noisy at times but they close the outside area in the evening which is good. The property could do with a little more worktop space to accommodate 10 people, but we managed ok. The hot tub was lovely. There isnt parking outside but there are local car parks very near, we paid weekly which is very reasonable and we could come and go and just display our ticket each time. Myself and my family would definitely return, thank you.
Better than the pictures Great location and properties Can't fault it. Other members in the group suggested a washing machine and outside tap at the front so as to not tread in sand etc despite this I think the property is great and not necessary Owners friendly and helpful and went above and beyond Would love to stay again
This house was absolutely perfect for the gathering of a group of 11 ladies! Great location for the town and harbourbeaches so everything was walkable with the long stay carpark just behind. Chris was a GREAT communicator and everything felt very personal and thought about with a welcome message and goodies. The house was very clean, modern and neat. We really respected the place and all its furnishings for we could see the care that had been given to the holiday home. Everything we needed was thought of and already placed somewhere convenient. We didnt want to leave and we made lots of happy memories there. Thank you.
This is our second stay in Fistral Quay, we love it it's perfect for our needs. The welcome hamper is a lovely touch, the house is immaculate and very spacious. Excellent location and comfortable could not recommend enough.
It would be helpful to have more places to hang wet towels and full length mirrors in each bedroom. We didnt think it was suitable for dogs as garden is so small and our boxer and westie peeded up the hot tub and pooed behind the hot tub!!! Not knowing the address until wed paid was a disadvantage as in hindsight staying on the busy Main Street, although convenient for both beaches, meant that we had a week of broken sleep with drunken shouting until 4am most nights!!!!!
Joanne
Lovely, comfortable cottage. Fab location close to the harbour and beaches The property was very clean Chris was really helpful and responded to questions Hot tub was a bonus We would definitely return
Charlotte
Such a lovely property and location right between Fistral beach and Towan beach. A lovely welcome with wine and biscuits too, with the property being extremely clean and homely feeling. One thing to say was that there wasnt a washing machine which would have made it perfect, as we had a baby with us. But other than that such a lovely place.
Andrew
Had an amazing time at fistral quay. Would definitely recommend and would definitely go again. Its amazing location is perfect for a Cornish beach holiday 5
Nicholas
Our stay at fistral quay was amazing, spacious house lovely and clean. Greeted with a welcome pack, which included tea and coffee with milk in the fridge perfect for arrival. The kitchen is equip with everything you need, dishwasher tabs, liquid, tea towels etc. Towels provided, a iron and ironing board and hairdryers also. These extras make the stay that bit easier. Perfect location and in the centre to the beaches thank you so much to Chris and mel we will defo be staying again.
Christine
This is a fabulous house with plenty of room, and a great location, 10 minute walk to the town and 10 minute walk to Fistral Beach. No problems with communication with the owners, nothing was too much trouble. Tea, scones, jam and clotted cream left for us on our arrival, also a bottle of Bucks Fizz and Prosecco. A lovely touch. We are hoping to go back again sometime.
Our stay can be described in one word AMAZING! !! We were 2 families, 3 generations and 2 small dogs. The property was warm, very comfortable, extremely clean and the location between the 2 beaches and the proximity to the harbour was brilliant. The bedroom configuration with the split between the different types of rooms really worked for us. The communication with both Sykes and the owners leading up to and during our stay was faultless with any queries being answered very promptly. We enjoyed it so much we have already booked our next stay. Thank you Chris and Mel for your hospitality the cottage was warm and inviting when we arrived and the welcome pack was super and much appreciated.
This is the 2nd time we have stayed in this property, it has just what we need. Chris and Mel are fantastic and so helpful in every way. We stayed over Christmas and the house was made beautifully festive for us. We will most definitely be back in the future. The only thing I would say is a washing machine rather than a dish washer would be ideal Thank you for the festive gifts too Kind regards Paul Barratt and family
Claire
Fistral Quay is a wonderful holiday let , perfect for large groups with plenty of space that you dont feel on top of each other. It is clean, and the owners and so welcoming and accommodating. It is perfectly situated that it is a pleasant flat stroll into town and a little further to the beaches so we didnt have to use our cars. We will definitely be booking this property in the future for a third time.
William
Place had more space than expected, and was easily room for 11 of us without feeling crowded.
Perfect location, rooms as described, spacious and very homely! Chris was a fantastic help! We will definitely return.
Natalie
This is such a beautiful place to stay and the location is perfect. We completely enjoyed our stay and we will recommend anyone to stay here
We had a fabulous holiday, the house was spotlessly clean and in an ideal location, only 5 min walk to town, harbour and beach! The hot tub was great. We were a family of 2 adults and 5 children and loved the space! Highly recommend this property for a holiday. We will be back in the future. A big thank you to Chris who looks after everything
Amelia
Fantastic stay at Fistral Quay during September. We were a group of 2125 year olds and the location of the house was perfect for us. The house was really modern and clean, couldn't fault it. Clean towels and linen provided for each person plenty of cupsbowlscutlery very spacious livingdining and kitchen area. The hot tub and outdoor space were very clean also. The house is on a busy road opposite a pub so can be noisy in the morning but wasn't too much of an issue. The house is also terraced so worth bearing in mind that you cannot use the outdoor space after 10pm. Would highly recommend this house for large groups!
The property was clean and spacious enough for our party of 9 and perfectly located for both Fistral beach and the harbour. Even though it is centrally located in the middle of Newquay, there was very little noise. There is no parking but there is a long stay car park within a couple of minutes walk, which is free overnight or you can buy a rover ticket for a reasonable weekly fee that can be used around Cornwall in certain car parks.
My family stayed at Fistral Quay for a week in August. We found the accommodation to be perfect for us, the variety of bedrooms was ideal, something for everyone. The living space was also very well set out with plenty of seating and eating areas. The kitchen had everything we needed. The only thing that would have made this perfect would have been a washing machine. The hot tub was appreciated and used by everyone, a great plus to the whole holiday, especially on rainy days. Chris was very helpful, he couldnt do enough to make us feel comfortable. We would definitely come back again.
Andrew
Great location, very central to beaches, pubs, shops etc Great layout Hot tub ... Great location, very central to beaches, pubs, shops etc Great layout Hot tub excellent addition, thoroughly enjoyed by all Overall excellent holiday
There was nothing wrong with Fistral Quay it's a brilliant property with everything you need and very clean and welcoming would definitely recommend the property. Very disappointed in the handling, correspondence and attitude of Sykes Cottages and would be reluctant to book through you again!
Natalie
I loved the house we stayed in it was perfect loacation, very clean and tidy. Lovely modern decor. The owners were the perfect hosts and I would absolutely return.
The booking was easy and the welcome confirmation and entry instructions from the owners of this property was excellent. We were a working group of 6 and to find a 6 bedroom house was a bonus, we were greeted by a newly refurbished property which was really warm and comfortable. In fact after the first night we instantly booked for a following week. Would highly recommend this place.
Lovely clean newly renovated cottage, well equipped, and as we had four children under ten with us, found it very child friendly, with its enclosed garden, and lots of fun in the hot tub, short walk to beaches and supermarket, would definitely book again June Robinson.
