The Waves
Description
The Waves is a charming retreat located just a short walk from the centre of Crantock, Cornwall.
Overlooking peaceful fields with grazing horses and a quaint village church, it’s perfect for couples, small families, or groups seeking a tranquil coastal break, while still being close to the vibrant town of Newquay and the stunning north Cornwall coastline.
Inside, you’ll find a bright open-plan living area with a comfortable seating space—ideal for relaxing with a book or enjoying a film.
Patio doors lead to a private enclosed terrace, where you can savour the evening sun with a glass of wine or dine outdoors in Cornwall’s mild climate.
The well-equipped kitchen includes everything needed for a self-catered stay, and meals can be enjoyed around the dining table.
A handy cloakroom by the entrance is perfect after a day at the beach, while upstairs, the modern bathroom offers a shower over bath for either a refreshing start or a relaxing end to your day.
The master bedroom features a king-size bed and countryside views, while the second bedroom has zip-and-link beds that can be arranged as twins or a super-king, along with a Smart TV for leisurely mornings.
Crantock Beach is just a short stroll away, offering golden sands, turquoise waters, and excellent conditions for swimming, sunbathing, or surfing.
The nearby Gannel Estuary is ideal for birdwatching and watersports, with a footbridge to Newquay at low tide.
Explore the South West Coast Path, visit nearby attractions like Newquay Zoo, the Blue Reef Aquarium, and the historic manor of Trerice, or take a day trip to the Eden Project or Truro.
The Waves is a stylish and welcoming base for discovering the best of Cornwall’s coast and countryside.

What guests are saying
The Waves offered an ideal base for our week long family holiday.
We love the area of Crantock and the property is situated just on the outskirts of the village which was great for the short work down to enjoy the beach and the selection of pubs/restaurants and cafes. The property is spacious and airy. It was clearly very well kept, cleaned and maintained. Bedrooms were well furnished and provided a restful nights sleep after long days on the beach and exploring. Kitchen is well stocked and had everything we needed. We only brought one car but there was space for two and never had any issues. The property has a host of board games and books and our son absolutely loved the old school Batman and Robin DVD collection. One minor gripe would be that the sofa in the main living room was slightly lacking in comfort/support in the centre. We couldn’t find any pegs for hanging out our wetsuits after a day at the beach but having contacted the hosts this issue was rectified very promptly as a pack of pegs arrived the following day. We would definitely recommend The Waves to anyone looking to enjoy a holiday in Cornwall.
A lovely place, great location a short walk to the beach.
The place had everything we needed with very comfy beds and a lovely huge bath to relax in after all our beach walks. Would definitely return.
First impressions were that this was a gem of a place and just right for us.
Mostly that first impression stayed but as the week progressed we found one or two things that weren't quite up to our standards. Mostly due to the cleanliness really. The floor seemed to be alittle dull and could've done with a good sweep and mop. Our main issue was with the washing machine. I went to put a wash on,on the Thursday morning and as soon as I opened the door I could smell the problem,on inspection of the seal of the machine I found black stains and dirt. It was really horrible and if I'd had the time I would've washed the machine myself before using it but we were coming home the next day? Also someone had broken the tin opener and not noted it down for the owners to change it. Other than that it was a lovely little house in a lovely street in a wonderful part of the country. Weather was crap too but we made the most of it.
