  Gorgeous apartment.

  The view from the balcony and living space is amazing. The chaise lounge is a nice touch to relax and look out to sea too. You cannot beat the location. Right in the centre of town and a 2 minute easy walk to the lovely towan beach. It's easy just to stay on the balcony and watch the world go by. Good parking space which is rare in a sea side town. We've toured Cornwall many times so just left the car and stayed local. Everything you need is around you . Lots of eateries, cafes, pubs etc. Nice coastal walk to fistral. The beach walk to lusty glaze is great when the tide is out around midday. The actual apartment is great. There's the odd little thing that just needs rectifying to keep up the 5 star. Little piece of ceiling peeling in ensuite. The TV is balanced on wood in main living room, due to new build walls being only plasterboard so understand. Could be dangerous as we never knew. TV also difficult to use. I know it's top of the range bang and olfusen but it's still not user friendly and we're savvy technically. Grout in ensure could do with little touch up, grout revive and waste a little slow draining. Only 4 forks and 2 toilet rolls issued. When paying this amount you do expect enough toilet tissue for the week. Odd mark on the walls to touch up but nothing major. It's just the odd thing to keep it 5 star but as I say nothing major. One point to raise is in relation to the fire alarm panel as you enter the building. The alarm activated once while there (not by us). I believe all activate if one is set off as usually the case. I then realised the keys to the fire panel are permanently inserted into it. This should not be the case as anyone can enable the controls and deactivate it etc. The keys should be kept in a keysafe or out of reach and only authorised persons should operate the fire alarm to reset etc. This is a risk as I say if it activated and someone become annoyed at the noise, they could disarm it but there may actually be a fire. No one also appeared to react to the panel activating. It went off almost immediately but we were none the wiser of what was happening, whether it was a false alarm or not. From my experience, I would of thought the brigade or management company would respond to alarms and establish the offending flat and then reset the panel etc. Really needs looking into from a building perspective not just responsibility of this flat. The welcome pack was a nice touch with some goodies such as cornish tea, shortbread, jams and crisps etc. Also get a cleaning pack which was good. There is a lift which is slow and have to press the button constantly but at least there is one. The outside lock up is a great idea which provides body boards, a small wetsuit plus bucket and spades etc Both bedrooms nice with addition of smsrt tvs. Fans in living room and bedrooms also a bonus. Plenty of room for 4 plus dog. All in all a gorgeous apartment with everything you need. You cannot beat the view and location in newquay. We ste out but also bought food and sat and ate on the balcony. Would highly recommended.

  Lovely view and a very thoughtful welcome pack, which was appreciated thank you :-) Small cleaning pack also left.

  The apartment was nicely furnished and the lounge was comfortable. Kitchen could do with more than 4 teaspoon and chipped crockery needs checking/replacing, oven requires a deep clean please. Balcony and its furniture was lovely. Showers were good and always hot water though bath has a draining issue (maybe stop the small plastic toiletry packs as we all have our own preferences and it's just more plastic, but I understand this is a thoughtful gesture) Twin room has 2ft6 wide beds not 3ft ( we were not offered option to have as a double) and as average size people we found them too narrow and therefore uncomfortable I'm sorry to say. This and the noise into the early hours from the 'Walkabout' pub next door but one meant we didn't sleep too well :-( We couldn't have a window open because of the noise but could still hear it through closed windows. People appear to hang around this area! I know you can do nothing about this but maybe others would like to bring ear plugs to help? The lounge tv remote did not appear to charge up so needs looking at (we didn't try to use bedroom tvs.) When people pay hard earned money to stay things need to be checked and working please. Lift will be really useful for some guests. It is only a 2 minutes walk up into town on turning left out the car park. Parking was nice to have but could be tight for bigger cars when full up and cars parked up in the narrow lane. We did like this apartment and loved the view/ furniture but found it too noisey to do a return visit so very sorry.

  My husband and I had wonderful time in a lovely apartment.

  Spectacular views from the apartment over Towan beach, spent many an hour just watching all the surfers, people and dogs on the beach. Great walks to be had nearby, we walked for miles with our little doggy. The apartment had everything that was needed including a lovely Cornish hamper on arrival which was a nice touch. The apartment was very clean with great luxury white bath towels, lovely quality bed linen and a nice large TV which is quite uncommon in a holiday apartment. I know you do not want to spend your holiday watching TV, and we didn’t, but on a dark evening if you are not going out it is really nice to cosy up and watch a decent large TV. The only thing I could think of maybe is an upgrade on the metal table and chairs that are on the balcony, a bit rusty and past their sell by date, and not very comfortable. I think a nice couple of comfy rattan chairs would be fantastic on this balcony. But this is a minor moan, overall a beautiful and well equipped apartment and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend or visit again in the future

  We are a elderly couple in our 70's, my husband is disabled and our son who came with us has autism.

  I chose this holiday apartment as it had lots of features which would suit us perfectly... a Lift, 2 bathrooms, sea view, balcony, allowed dogs, 3 large TV's and a private car park...all excellent, very clean plus a pleasing welcome pack. But... there is always a but..sorry...heating was far too hot 23 degrees celsius, could not be turned lower. No grip rails in both showers or anti slip mats, glass shower-shield over the bath moved outward...all very dangerous? A very smelly stagnant mop and bucket..yuk ..I left it on the balcony. A phone call.. could window cleaners come and clean windows? .. Err No! we are on holiday? The bin shed is full of empty wine/beer bottles,over flowing on the floor. Living room remote control as you know from other guests is not working. Last complaint is not owners fault but we left early Thursday morning as we could not stand the 9am to 4pm hammer drilling in the road, as they where renewing a barrier on the over hang above the aquarium.

  Providing unrivalled views of Towan Beach & beyond, Onshore 7 is a uniquely positioned for a truly breathtaking coastal stay.

  The apartment itself if perfectly appointment offering everything you need for a comfortable short stay. The inclusion of an off road parking space is a great bonus in the heart of Newquay. The beach itself is just minutes away, with the inclusion of surf boards & body boards as part of the rental adding to the overall offer on Onshore 7. Being in the heart of Newquay means there is some daytime and night time noise - with the proximity of a large Walkabout bar meaning music can be heard & at times felt in the apartment even with the windows closed - a small price to pay for proximity to the beach. Shops and cafes are abundant and on your doorstep, with supermarkets less than 5 minutes walk from the apartment. The apartment has a lift which is a blessing for bringing up cases. The welcome box also a lovely touch offering a ‘Taste of Cornwall’.
