Towan Beach Holiday Flat Overview
First Impressions
You know what struck me first about Towan Beach Holiday Flat? It’s not trying to be something it isn’t. This self-catering apartment sits quietly on Trebarwith Crescent, and honestly, the location does all the talking. I mean, you’re literally a stone’s throw from Towan Beach — I could hear the waves from the window, which is something you don’t get at those big chain hotels further inland. The building itself is pretty typical for Newquay, nothing fancy, but it’s well-maintained and the entrance was clean when I arrived.
The Apartment Setup
Inside, Towan Beach Holiday Flat feels more like staying at a friend’s place than a hotel room. The kitchen actually has everything you need — proper-sized fridge, decent hob, even a washing machine tucked away. I ended up cooking breakfast most mornings because, well, why not when you can grab fresh supplies from the shops on Fore Street? The living area’s comfortable enough for lounging after a day on the beach, and there’s enough space that you’re not tripping over your suitcase every five minutes. The whole setup works particularly well if you’re here as a couple — there’s something quite romantic about making dinner together while listening to the sea outside.
Location Magic
Here’s the thing about this spot that you can’t really appreciate until you’re there — Trebarwith Crescent puts you right in the sweet spot of Newquay. Towan Beach is basically your front garden, but you’re also walking distance to Fistral Beach if you want the proper surf scene. The town center’s close enough that you can easily pop out for supplies or dinner, but far enough that you’re not dealing with the late-night noise from the pubs. I actually found myself taking evening walks along the coastal path — it connects right there and gives you those classic Cornish cliff views that make your Instagram followers properly jealous.
Beach Life Reality
Let me be honest about Towan Beach itself — it’s not the biggest beach in Newquay, but that’s actually part of its charm. It gets busy during peak summer, sure, but it never feels overwhelming like Fistral can. The beach is perfect for a morning swim or just sprawling out with a book. What I really appreciated was being able to nip back to the flat if I forgot sunscreen or wanted to grab a cold drink from the fridge. You know those moments when you’re at a beach hotel and realize you left something upstairs? Here, it’s a two-minute walk, not a trek through endless corridors.
Why Guests Love It
The high rating makes complete sense once you’ve stayed here. Towan Beach Holiday Flat delivers exactly what it promises — a proper base for exploring Newquay without the hotel fuss. Couples seem to get it especially, probably because there’s something quite special about having your own little seaside retreat. You can make morning coffee and drink it while watching the surfers, or cook a romantic dinner without paying restaurant prices every night. It’s not about fancy amenities or room service — it’s about location, independence, and that genuine seaside holiday feeling that’s getting harder to find these days.

The space was lovely, great size and everything you could need was there. We managed a whole Christmas dinner 😊
What could be improved: The hot water is limited as it does have to heat over night, not a problem but something to be conscious ofAngela from United Kingdom – 5 November 2024 (8/10)
Excellent location. Lovely flat everything you needed in it. Excellent with a garage as a bonus and parking.
What could be improved: NothingColin from United Kingdom – 30 June 2024 (9/10)
The flat was spacious and so welcoming.
The facilities in the kitchen were excellent, with lots of crockery and cutlery, a real home from home.
What could be improved: Everything was great, couldn’t fault anything.
