  • "This is a wonderful house in a beautiful quiet area very near Newquay centre and Fistral beach."

    It is a very comfortable and well-appointed house with the master bedroom having a spectacular view over the Gannel. The kitchen has everything you would need, and there's plenty of room for a large family to stay. Everything is very high quality and is highly recommended.

  • "This is a gorgeous house inside and out!"

    Perfectly situated for paddle-boarding along the Gannel, and only a short walk from the centre of town. The garden and BBQ area was lovely, fab for the hot weather. Inside, each room was well decorated, and we appreciated the lovely welcome gift. There is parking for 2 cars on the driveway, which makes things a lot easier. The kitchen was well stocked with cooking utensils. A great location for a family or party of friends, thanks!

    Thank you for your kind words regarding this property. We are really pleased that you liked it so much and that you had a wonderful holiday. That makes us really happy. Best regards, The Owners. Property Owner

  • "Fantastic property."

    Very comfortable with big sofa in living room and brilliant games table in the garage. The views are incredible. We loved the easy access to the Gannel which is provides a huge sandy expanse at low tide and paddle boarding at high tide. Highly recommend.

  • "Excellent holiday home and plenty of space."

    Just like a home from home. Space for everyone to have a bit of their own peace and quiet. Great facilities for cooking and entertaining in the kitchen and dining area. The backyard and BBQ areas again were great to use and the vista a great outlook. Alway nice watching the Ganel change with the tides.

The property

Situated right on the Gannel Estuary – a tidal inlet where the River Gannel meets the sea – this boutique-standard coastal retreat offers a truly unique natural experience.

With uninterrupted 180-degree panoramic views across the ever-changing estuary, guests will witness the waters filling up during high tide and revealing expansive sandbanks at low tide.

You’ll never tire of this view during your stay. At high tide, the Gannel becomes the perfect playground for paddleboarding, kayaking, or foil boarding.

At low tide, you can enjoy breathtaking walks all the way to Crantock Beach, or even go horse riding along the sandbanks – all just a few steps away through your garden gate.

The property’s direct access to the water is a standout feature that truly enhances the experience. The enclosed, river-facing garden is ideal for alfresco breakfasts, relaxed lunches, or evening barbecues with the estuary as your backdrop. Inside, the lodge has been tastefully styled by its owners to a boutique finish, with hand-picked furnishings and thoughtful design throughout.

Sleeping up to eight guests across four beautifully appointed bedrooms, each room features plush beds dressed in crisp cotton linens, wool throws, and generous wardrobe space. The open-plan kitchen and dining room is equipped with high-end appliances and a Smart TV, and opens directly onto the terrace – allowing the chef to stay connected with guests while enjoying the view.

A separate, spacious lounge offers a second Smart TV, inviting sofas, and an electric stove-effect fire, creating a cosy atmosphere ideal for winter breaks.

Guests are welcome to log in to their own Netflix or Amazon Prime accounts for a personalised entertainment experience. For wet weather days, the indoor garage includes a multi-games table with air hockey and billiards – perfect for keeping everyone entertained. Newquay Tamarisk Lodge on the Gannel is ideally located to explore Cornwall’s stunning coastline.

Nearby are Newquay’s renowned surfing beaches including Fistral, Watergate Bay, Towan, and Great Western.

Guests can also enjoy coasteering, sea safaris, horse riding, and golf at Newquay Golf Course.

For a slower pace, unwind at local spas or explore the tranquil Trenance Gardens and Boating Lake. Whether you're chasing waves, exploring the coast, or simply relaxing by the water, Newquay Tamarisk Lodge on the Gannel offers a luxurious and unforgettable Cornish retreat.

Note: This property has a Good Housekeeping bond of £450.
