About Wax Watergate
A cosy bar with a pool table and plasma TV sets the tone at Wax Watergate, a hotel built around the surf crowd on Watergate Bay in Newquay, Cornwall. It's the kind of place where evenings drift between the dining area and the bar, and where fireworks nights add a bit of occasion to a stay by the coast.
Rooms come with en-suite bathrooms, drinks available in-room and family rooms for those travelling with children, while sea views give many stays a proper Cornish backdrop. Guests can eat in the on-site restaurant or grab something from the snack bar, and kids' meals are catered for too. Free WiFi and 24 hour reception cover the practical side, with a bar on-site for anyone happy to stay put in the evening.
Watergate Bay itself is a magnet for watersports, and the hotel sits within easy reach of walking and cycling routes, golf, fishing and local pubs and restaurants. It's a straightforward base for anyone whose holiday revolves around the beach and what's happening on it, rather than the finer points of the room.

Great restaurant with great view over the sea. Fish and chips to die for. Friendly staff and great atmosphere. We were lucky to sea a life performance of the Shantychor there. Loved every minute of the night 🌙.

We came here after booking a spontaneous trip to Newquay right after our wedding and absolutely loved it! The service was amazing — so warm and welcoming. The food was tasty, seasonal, and really inventive, with drinks to match. Great music, cute fairy lights, and such a nice atmosphere. Our waiter went above and beyond to make sure everyone was comfortable, even helping to entertain kids at other tables. Couldn’t recommend it more!
