The Pad is in a prime location in Newquay and has very nice decor. The rooftop outdoor area is very pleasant to enjoy the sun or a barbecue. The view is excellent

Yvonne made us feel very welcome with flowers and wine on our arrival. She even gave me a lift to Newquay airport on my way home. Over and above!

I would recommend the Pad to anyone staying in Newquay.

I would also recommend the Boathouse for a lovely meal and location in the working harbour of Newquay

We booked this apartment for a weekend break to celebrate a friends 40th birthday. It was the only place we could find centrally that allowed a short break booking at the height of season.

We were able to check in early and were shown around by Jason, before Yvonne arrived with flowers and wine to welcome us.

The apartment was ideal for us six girls and the layout meant we didn't feel cramped at all. The living room on the top floor and 2 of the bedrooms have stunning sea views, and the window shutters allow a good level of soundproofing at night (although I did take earplugs too). A lovely terrace bathed in afternoon sunlight and bug enough for six to sit up to the wee small hours without disturbing anyone was a huge bonus as well.

Although there was only 1 shower room, the shower was fantastic so this wasn't a problem. The kitchen and apartment in general was very well equipped. The parking permit was also very welcome and valid in 4 centrally located car parks.

On our last day Yvonne even gave the birthday girl a lift to Newquay airport which is above and beyond and was most welcome.

A stunning apartment in a fantastic location owned by a lovely lady....that about sums it up!

My friends and I have just come back from a trip to Newquay for a hen do and we stayed at the Pad. We loved our visit as the location of The Pad is amazing - you literally walk right out onto the road (the main stirp of shops) and you can get to the beach in a 2 minute walk. From the apartment you can see a great view of the beach from the table area - so to sit and eat dinner there with that view is wonderful. Yvonne was very welcoming and easy going which made us feel comfortable. There was a lot of space to hang out and get ready for our nights out. I think this is perfect for a group of friends on holiday who know each other really well as you will be sleeping in rooms with each other or on the extra bed in the lounge - so for us it was perfect as we have all been friends for years. Thanks for a great time - we hope to be back very soon!

We had a lovely time staying at The Pad, Yvonne made us so welcome , thank you so much. This accommodation had everything you need and so much more, all the mod cons fully equipped kitchen . There is a lovely decked area in the garden with BBQ and it is very secure if you are travelling with children. The most amazing view from the front of the property, the location is so central that you can park your car and leave it there. Yvonne is so friendly and made it our best trip to Cornwall ever!!!!

The Pad is central, big, well equipped and well decorated with an amazing view of the rock and towan beach from the upstairs window where the dining table is suitably placed. With 3 TVs, a gas BBQ, small decking area, board games and a brilliant shower, the 5 of us (all girls) who stayed were very comfortable and had an amazing time. The location was perfect- 30 seconds away from a huge sainsburys, across the road from the escape surf school ( I'd highly recommend this surf school to anyone- highly experienced instructors, and overall great fun and value for money in conjunction with The Pad), and very near to a great choice of bars, pubs and clubs. What more could you ask for? We also took up the offer of 20% off at the Beach Shack salon down the stairs and got our nails done which was great. Only slight problem was the ants which we increasingly found more and more of upstairs... However this has not at all put us off from returning next summer and we hope to book the exact holiday very soon!

We used The Pad for a stag weekend. Yvonne the owner was so easy to deal with and made herself available to meet with us based on our schedule not hers, which was a fantastic start.

Once we got into the apartment, it was clean, spacious and the loaction and views out of Towan and the coast are fantastic.

The flat itself had 3 bedrooms and Yvonne had changed one of the doubles into a triple for us, which was really appreciated. The first floor bedroom windows have wooden shutters on them which helped with both light and noise, a nice touch which helped with sleeping in! The kitchen was brand new and had loads of new kit and plenty of it too. As with everything it was clean and ready to go, with even a few beers in the fridge!

The top floor had the amazing views, plus a spacious lounge with plenty of seating and a dining table, plus a double bedroom at the back of the building.

There is a decked outside area, which is a nice and calm oasis so close to town. Sadly the weather didn't warrant using the BBQ and spending too much time outside, but it was handy for drying clothes and the gas in the BBQ was charged and ready to go if we had wanted to use it.

On the day of departure, Yvonne let us stay on late as no-one was following us in, again really appreciated and very kind to us. All my friends were impressed and amazed that we had been able to get this place. If I go back to Newquay for a short stay, The Pad will be the first place I look at.
