  • "This was a gem of a place!"

    Warm and cosy, yet modern and beautifully presented. It was a short walk to the village and on a bit further to the wonderful beach. We thoroughly enjoyed our week and would certainly book this property again. Thank you!

    Thanks so much Margot, sounds like you had a wonderful stay. Can’t wait to have you back. Property Owner

  • "What an absolutely fabulous place!"

    So bright and airy and thoughtfully decorated. Every aspect had been thought of from board games for rainy days to a wonderfully stocked kitchen including plastic items for children or outside. We usually stay right in the middle of Crantock but this can come with a premium price tag and Limited outdoor space depending on budget l, so we thought it might be a little too far out but we were wrong. It’s a perfect location with about a 2 minute walk to the local shop through a little cut through at the bottom of the road and the walk to the beach was around 12 minutes. You can also see the sea out the window and from the garden which is a lovely space. Will definitely be back again Crantock has our heart and we return every year and will definitely be returning to the waves

    Thanks Emma, glad you love Crantock as much as we do! Can’t wait to have you back to visit. Property Owner

  • "Lovely modern property with sea peeps from the upstairs bedroom."

    Easy walk into the village for pubs and shop and down to the beach. Stayed at Crantock on numerous occasions and really like the location. Well equipped house with modern facilities. Heating control was slightly complicated and couldn’t find any instructions so resorted to mr google, but all worked well after an initial blip. Would recommend this place if you’re looking for a great village location with lots of great walks and a beach on your doorstep.

    Stephen thanks for such a lovely review, it was so unfortunate that a power cut reset the heating on a very cold weekend! Glad it was all sorted out soon and that you had a great time in Crantock. We’d love to have you back at The Waves anytime. Property Owner

  • "We had a fantastic 2 week stay at The Waves."

    The house is well equipped, with everything you could possibly need! The beds were so comfortable, we both had the best nights sleep. Crantock is a lovely village and this was our second time staying in the village. Two good pubs less than a 5 minutes walk away, our favourite is the Cornishman, the Sunday Lunch is amazing! We love making use of the costal path and the views are stunning. Our dogs loved Crantock beach. The most relaxing two weeks, I would highly recommend The Waves, we’ve already booked again for next year!

    Helen thank you so much for your kind review, we’re so glad you had a relaxing couple of weeks at The Waves and are thrilled you’ve booked again for next year! Property Owner

  • "Everything was lovely about this holiday property."

    The house was well equipped and tastefully furnished and decorated. The owners even left a selection of books, games, dvds, and puzzles, should you need them. Lots of useful stuff in the kitchen. (And thank you for the welcome pack too.) The oven was different to what we are used to so it would have been good to see the instruction book. But we managed. Two very tiny issues and these were not major, but i think useful going forwards to know. The outside tap is tucked behind the big box and a short hose would be helpful for rinsing dogs, wet suits or beach stuff. And when i booked i saw single beds in the second bedroom and when we arrived the bed was made up as a king size. Again not a big issue for us as we were family. And maybe my fault as i only read this was something we should of asked for when i read the welcome folder. Overall, a great location and we enjoyed our stay at the Waves.

    Hi Alison, thanks for your detailed feedback, glad you had a great time. Your tips are more than welcome and the idea for a small hose for the dogs is a great idea. The single beds should have been made up for you and I can only apologise for that. Hope to see you back soon. Property Owner

CRANTOCK

Newquay 4.5 miles.

Crantock is a small Cornish village, just a short walk from the beach, close to the popular resort of Newquay. If you want to escape the crowds, yet still be close to the action, this is the place to be. There's stunning countryside all around and lots of pretty villages to explore; however, it is the coast that dominates. Enjoy superb walks along the coastal path over dramatic cliff-tops, or magnificent surfing on beaches stretching from Watergate Bay in the North to Fistral beach in the centre of Newquay and on down the coast. There are a number of golf courses in the area, as well as National Trust properties, traditional pubs and outstanding restaurants. Newquay itself is a visitor's paradise with a wide variety of shops, pubs and restaurants, plus attractions such as the Sea Life Centre, Newquay Zoo and nearby Dairyland and Eden Project.
