Guest Reviews

• AmandaMeira (9/5): -
• Jason (8/5): -
• Nick (9/5): Relaxing stay in a great location, thank you. - Really comfortable, clean & well equipped room. Very helpful hosts. Close to bus station so a great base for walking the coast path. There's nothing I didn't like!
• Piotr (8/5): Spacious room in a very good location - Comfy spacious room in a very good location in the centre of Newquay. Almost everything you need for a short stay. There's no kitchen area available, although, on the other hand, there was such information.
• Darren (8/5): Ideal for a short break and great value for money - Very friendly and helpful hosts, in a great location and seriously good value for money compared to other comparable locations. Rooms feel a little dated but it doesn't impact a short stay where everything you might need is available.
• Graham (10/5): - Everything! Nothing!
• Richard (10/5): I received a warm welcome and enjoyed my four-night stay - A lovely place to stay … in a quiet location in the centre of Newquay within easy walking distance of the shops, rail station, bus station and town beaches … my room was most comfortable and Id have no hesitation in staying again No adverse comments at all … all the boxes are ticked for me
• Nicki (9/5): - John and Ellen are so hospitable - nothing is too much trouble. The rooms are very comfortable and homely, the breakfast was yummy!😋 Thank you! My dog loved it too!
• VALERIE (10/5): Newquay is a great destination and I would love to stay at the Smugglers Rest again - Location was perfect for my needs. Breakfast was exceptional. Host couldn't have been more helpful. Nothing to dislike
• Davis (10/5): Great stay and location - Excellent breakfast.John was there to help in with Any requirements.Great stay will stay again great.
• Sian (8/5): A home from home in the heart of Newquay. - I’ve stayed here several times and always return due to its central location, value for money and friendly atmosphere.
• Duncan (9/5): - Location Personally I found the shower too small
• Andy (8/5): Glad I found this place. Great value. - Really nice guest house, just a couple of minutes walk from the main street going through Newquay. Met the owner on check-in, really friendly and helpful. The room I had was a decent size, had all the facilities you would expect and most importantly was clean. Newquay is a busy place, so expect to spend a little bit of time driving round finding somewhere to park!
• Oli (8/5): Had a great stay, lovely people, great facilities, perfect location. - John was incredibly welcoming and helpful to myself and my son. nothing was too much trouble and he was very accommodating with any and all requests. nothing, was perfect for what we were after
• Ann (10/5): Beste Wahl! - Wir hatten einen wundervollen Aufenthalt im Smugglers Rest. John ist ein grandioser Gastgeber. Er hat alles getan, dass wir uns wie zuhause fühlten. Selbst bei einem über booking.com entstandenen Fehler ist er uns komplett entgegengekommen. Besser geht es nicht. Dieses Guesthouse war definitiv die beste Wahl für uns in Newquay. Wir hoffen, bald wieder kommen zu können. Vielen Dank für die wunderschönen Tage!
• ray (9/5): Great location would definitely recommend - Location, owners where exceptional. Breakfast excellent value Nothing
• Dominique (10/5): Comfy stay at Newquay BnB - The bed was comfortable and the room had a mini fridge along with tea and coffee facilities. There was also parking available at the property and the property is well located for the beach and town centre. Nothing
• Maxine (8/5): Great B and B - Very central to the town, great hosts very helpful
• Jack (10/5): Fabulous stay - Fabulous stay, amazing friendly hosts. Nothing was so much trouble. The room was lovely and clean and I had a great stay. Great central location too. Highly recommended.
• Edwards (8/5): -
• Robert (10/5): - I stayed at Smugglers Rest BnB from 28th–31st March as a solo traveller and had a fantastic experience from start to finish. The room was spacious, very clean and extremely comfortable, with a lovely sea view that really made the stay feel special. It was well equipped too, with great facilities including a mini fridge, which was a really useful touch. The hosts were incredibly friendly and welcoming, and always on hand to help with anything I needed – whether that was advice about the local area or help with bookings. They really made me feel at ease throughout my stay. The location is ideal – just a short walk to Towan Beach, very close to the main street in Newquay, and only a few minutes from a 24-hour car park, which made everything really convenient. Overall, I would highly recommend Smugglers Rest BnB, especially for solo travellers looking for a comfortable, well-located and welcoming place to stay. I would definitely stay again.
• Richard (9/5): A good room for a short stay in Newquay with all I needed. - I only had breakfast on one morning but it was good and filling. The room had a fridge which was a nice surprise. As was the bottled water. Being able to come and go at will was helpful. The shower was cramped but all that could be provided in the room. And similarly for parking: the best was made of little available space.
• Jean (9/5): I received a nice welcome. The family were friendly & informative. Everything I needed was there. - The location was good, for cafes, bars, beaches. It was easy to find & an added bonus to have onsite parking. The room was clean, tidy & spacious. A lovely family. If I want to go to that area again, I will definitely book the Smugglers Rest.
• Catherine (10/5): Great location, super clean room, friendly & helpful hosts - Location is great, really close to town centre but v quiet, close to sea front, coast walks, train & bus Hosts were really friendly & helpful. Room & en-suite were super clean and there was plenty of tea / coffee / water, topped up daily and a small fridge in the room as well. I would definitely stay again Nothing

• Glover (9/5): -
• Lewis (10/5): - The full English breakfast was excellent. Thank you 👌
• GARY (9/5): Nicest place I have stayed this year - Though the location was ideal, halfway between the bus and train station and close to the shops and beach but still out of the way enough to be peaceful , the B&B owners were nice friendly people who took an interest in the OCR I was running down there, the tea and coffee making facilities were plentiful and the bed was really comfortable with good quality pillows, overall I would say that this was the nicest place I have stayed at all 21 OCR events I have attended so far this year In all honesty I really couldn't find a single fault with this place
• Helena (9/5): - Sehr liebenswürdige Gastgeber, sehr schöne Unterkunft, sehr gutes Frühstück :)
• Carol (10/5): - Top notch
• Melanie (10/5): - The hosts made you feel like part of the family, very welcoming and very helpful 😊. They would go out of their way to help you in any way they could. I cannot rate them enough. Will be coming back in the future.
• Ben (9/5): Great place and friendly owner. - Location was perfect. Breakfast was good and cheap. Owner was very friendly and accommodating. Parking was a bit of an issue.
• Elizabeth (10/5): It was exactly what i needed, and more. Im very grateful. Thank you for having me. - Hi, if you found availability in this property know you are blessed. From the very beginning, both hosts Ellen and John received me warmly and were committed to serve with genuine care. From the clean and well equipped room, to the Michelin star breakfast by John and the recommendations (with actual maps) to wonder around their lovely city coasts. As a female solo traveler, I look forward to returning! That i had to leave.
• J (8/5): Fijn verblijf dicht bij de stad en strand, geen parkeerprobleem daar - Bedden redelijk wel met veren. Zie je op het continent niet zoveel meer. Ontbijt was niet inbegrepen zoals geboekt was, maar voor 5 Pond p.p kon je alles en zoveel je wenste krijgen full Englisch ja. Niets te melden
• Adrian (10/5): -
• Aimme (9/5): Excellent Place - The location is fantastic. The hosts were lovely. This is the first time I have gone on a solo trip, and I felt safe and welcome. The shower is very small.
• Sian (9/5): Ideally situated for a short stay in Newquay, and friendly, welcoming owners. - Location is fab, good size room, friendly owners, home from home as my third stay here.
• Karen (9/5): -
• glyn (9/5): - The location was spot on,very central. Very accomadating ,friendly host. John was very informative and knowledgeable about the area.

• Karl (10/5): - The owners were lovely people and very helpful. The location was perfect. We had a fantastic weekend, and oh my god, that breakfast for that proce is amazing, thanks, john Nothing we didn't like
• Drew (7/5): -
• Julian (7/5): Good and dog friendly b&b style place - Very friendly family who is running this B&B style accommodation. John was always there and always happy to help. The breakfast was really good and very cheap. It was also extremely nice how they catered for vegan requirements. The house is also pretty quiet. Super dog friendly place as well. While being a very nice size, the mattress was probably old and a bit uncomfortable. There was not enough water pressure in the shower.
• Bartlomiej (10/5): A wonderful stay - Very nice people. The location is really great, close to shops and the beach. A very nice and friendly atmosphere. We'll definitely be back. This is exactly the kind of place we were looking for, and now we have it. We'll choose this Smugglers Rest again every time we come back. All ok
• Aleksandra (10/5): Exceptional - Perfect Location and a Lovely Stay! We absolutely loved the location – it was perfect for us! Just a short walk to the beach and the harbour, which quickly became my favourite spot. There’s a lovely bar right on the beach at the harbour, where you can relax with a drink or a snack while the kids play happily in the sand. There are toilets nearby too, which is super convenient. Sainsbury’s is also close by, right on the way to the harbour, which made it easy to grab anything we needed. We spent most of our days exploring other parts of Cornwall, so we mainly enjoyed our evenings in Newquay. The hosts were incredibly friendly and helpful, which made us feel very welcome. Our room was bright, quite spacious, and spotlessly clean. It had everything we needed – a kettle with tea and coffee and a small fridge, which was really handy. Overall, it was a great base for our Cornwall adventures and a lovely place to come back to each day. Would definitely recommend!
• Rosemary (8/5): Great location - Great location, warm welcome, easy to park your car Nothing
• Michelle (9/5): John, Ellen and Family made our stay very enjoyable and we would highly recommend the Smugglers Rest - Breakfast was exceptional, freshly made by John, very tasty, good quality produce. Excellent value also. Family run Guesthouse, and made to feel at home straight away. Two lovely friendly dogs as well. We will stop again in the future. Nothing we can think of.
• Lorena (10/5): Very central guest house - It was very central, super clean, comfortable beds and the staff (John :)) was super attentive and helpful. I’d highly recommend it!
• Gary (10/5): stay was exceptional - I arrived early because of the train times they let me check in right away the room was wonderful and John went through the house rules with me also leaving my train was early but he made breakfast for me a finer host than John you will not meet !
• Mariana (10/5): Exceptional - I had a wonderful stay here. The place is run by a lovely family who made me feel really welcome from the moment I arrived. My room was super clean, cozy, and comfortable. There was a kettle with tea and coffee in the room, as well as a fridge, which was really convenient. Breakfast was absolutely delicious, one of the best I’ve had during my trip. The location couldn’t be better. It’s right in the city center, just a short walk to shops, restaurants and the beach. It’s also easy to get to this accommodation from the airport. They even gave me a map with great local tips, including where to go to see the seals, which was such a cool experience. As a female solo traveler I felt very safe the entire time. I would definitely recommend this place if you’re looking for somewhere warm and welcoming to stay.
• Yolanda (10/5): Exceptional -
• Abigail (10/5): From the moment I booked to checking out, Ellen and John were amazing, the atmosphere was like home, nothing was too muc - The property was in a prime location close enough to the beach and local attractions but also secluded away enough that you weren’t in the middle of town.
• John (8/5): Right place.right time .relaxing 2 days .really friendly owner.and not forgetting a verry good breakfast - Location near to all important things in Newquay train station bus station beach shops ect. I’m not a perfectionist could do with a lick of paint on the out side but what property doesn’t😊
• Jill (10/5): Exceptional - Lovely hosts, clean, comfortable bed, hot shower, hearty cooked breakfast for half the price you'd usually expect to pay. Good location for Padstow to Perranporth section of the coastal path. Less than 10 mins walk from the railway station and bus stop.
• Dominic (6/5): Lovely staff, shame about the rest. - The staff were lovely and welcoming and very helpful. The shower was not very good barely any pressure and the property smells of the owners dogs that lived downstairs.
• Domenico (10/5): Exceptional -
• Alexandra (10/5): Exceptional - The owners paid real attention to making you feel at home! A lovely place to stay
• Warwick (9/5): Superb - Very welcoming and friendly-superb facilities.
• Phillip (10/5): Exceptional - Comfortable bed and super friendly staff
• Mindaugas (10/5): Exceptional -
• Andrew (3/5): Poor - Location Smelt of dog
• Vincent (9/5): Very good, will recommend. - Breakfast, location and room was very good. Ellen and John were helpful and making sure you have everything you need. It has to provide a desk table w/lamp to make it complete although not necessarily. Nothing to dislike here.

• Suky (10/5): Exceptional -
• Sam (5/5): Knowledgable and friendly hosts, however basic accommodation - Great location and friendly staff. (Even provided sausages for our dog!). Good WiFi. Mini fridge in bedroom and refreshments provided. Room was small, (found it over crowded as 2 people & a dog), Shower was very small. Bed was very springy. Walls are very thin - you can hear a lot of noise.
• Rushi (9/5): Superb - Nice staff
• Czege (10/5): Exceptional -
• Billy (10/5): Exceptional - We were made to feel very welcome when we arrived, they helped us settle in and talked about what we could see nearby. They are a very friendly family and definitely went the extra mile for us. The breakfast was really good and helped set us up for a day of long walks! The locations is really good, it’s a stones throw away from the beach (with a good arm!), we would definitely come back here when we visit Cornwall again.
• Javier (9/5): Superb -
• Nicki (9/5): Superb - Just a perfect little retreat! Owners were so friendly and accommodating. The room was quiet, clean and comfortable. Didn't have time to enjoy breakfast but will next time! Nothing!
• Phil (10/5): Recommended for a short stay or long stay - Very welcome. By the time I got up to my room my case was already there. I asked about breakfast and they do it. Anything you want. Lovely people
• Matt (9/5): Superb -
