About Seashells
Rooms at Seashells come with their own en-suite bathroom, a fridge or tray of drinks to help yourself to, and free WiFi, so there's little need to leave the room until breakfast calls. Several rooms look out over the sea, and family rooms are available for those travelling with children. A 24 hour reception means arrival times are flexible, whatever your journey to Newquay involves.
Seashells sits on Fore Street, a short distance from the town's beaches and coastline, and breakfast is included to set guests up for a day exploring. Cornwall's watersports, golf courses and fishing spots are all within easy reach, while walkers and cyclists have plenty of coastal paths to work with.

What guests say
Feels like home; strong recommendation! To me, the best thing about this accommodation was the incredibly nice and eager host couple. Every morning we got a very delicious breakfast, and all our wishes and preferences were accepted with outstanding friendliness. This also applied to all other parts of our stay. We got along great with the hosts and the coordination was always uncomplicated and pleasant. This warm hospitality can probably best be compared with a visit to one's own mother. Our room was very spacious, clean, and we had a great view of the harbor. The location of the accommodation could not be better. The city center, two beaches, the harbor, a supermarket, and a bus stop are within walking distance. The only thing you should note about this accommodation is that the operators do everything themselves and thus there is a lot of personal interaction with them. We liked that wonderfully, because they are very cordial, as I said, but who is on the impersonal, highly professionalized service, which you barely notice, as is the case in large hotels, should rather look for another accommodation. For all others, I can only warmly recommend booking a room in probably the best price-performance accommodation in Newquay!

Seashells was perfect for our 6 day holiday last week. Brian and Julie were the perfect hosts and made us welcome, nothing was too much trouble. The room was lovely and clean with a comfortable bed. Breakfast has to be the best in Newquay, and Brian went out of his way to provide us with a vegan cooked breakfast every day. One really nice thing we noticed was that Brian remembered each guest's name and made every one feel special. Will be back. Lesley and Leanne x

This is a FANTASTIC guest house! Spotlessly clean, beautiful views, wonderful breakfast and close to everything. This is truly a home away from home with wonderful hosts who are welcoming and friendly. Recommended for children though please bare in mind this is a family business so children should be respectful in the communal areas and should remove their shoes before climbing the spotless carpeted stairs (not a requirement by the hosts just my personal opinion) We spent a week here on a family vacation and will recommend it highly and can't wait to return! Thank you Brian and Julie you are amazing!

We were 2 17 year old girls staying there and thought it was brilliant. Brian was excellent, nothing was too much of a problem. Very clean rooms tidy rooms and a nice atmosphere, particularly in communal moments such as breakfast. Breakfast tasted excellent, variety of cereals and nothing was too much of a problem to cook or make for you. When returning to Newquay I will definitely be staying there again, couldn’t recommend enough!
