Long weekend in Newquay

Hey guys I'm coming to Newquay in middle of August. It'll be the fourth time I've been to the fair town but I'm ageing a little since the first time!

Can anyone point us in the direction of good accommodation in the town, perhaps B&B type place. Want something relaxed but not full of stag/hen parties...!

Should be good and we're hoping for good surfing conditions.

Cheers

Kaiser Chief

Thanks I'll give them a call. Not sure whether we'll get in though, it's pretty late in the day now. We're driving down so somewhere with a car park would be good - but guess we can't be too picky.

Looking forward to it - we came two years ago and loved it, shame about the chavvy people it attracts as well though. Lots of teens too - makes me feel pretty old!

Thanks for your help mate.

[quote=Sad?Old Hippie]You have a definitive hang up wiv age Teacher Lady..

You're probably right... guess I should just forget about the wrinkles yeah?? In response to "that way inclined"... well yeah it would be "the man you feel" - but you never can tell these crazy days can you? not sure about the lady I'm travelling with though...!!

Try to live each day as it comes but guess lesson planning and assessment took over before I realised it - hoping a few days catching a wave should sort me out - methinks it IS the best remedy for stress! you agree?
