Welcome to Breakwater Hostel

Often described as “a second home” and “the first and last traditional backpackers in Newquay”.

This long-established homely hostel offers a warm welcome to all guests – surfers, hikers, and travellers alike.

We are situated in the heart of Newquay, within easy walking distance of awesome surfing beaches including Fistral Beach, Towan Beach, Great Western Beach and Tolcarne Beach. The town centre is on our doorstep where you can find a range of cafes, restaurants, bars, clubs, surf shops, a leisure centre, a cinema, and even an aquarium.

We are a great base for many scenic walks along the coast to Holywell Bay, Porth beach, Lusty Glaze, and Watergate Bay. And even further!
Come and enjoy our many facilities, including secure surfboard storage room, wetsuit storage, warm showers. We also have a fully equipped self-service kitchen which is open from 8 am – 8 pm and we provide free tea, coffee, and milk all day.

If it’s a few relaxing days chilling on the golden beaches, learning to surf, or a fun-filled weekend you are looking for.

Sammendrag av gjesteanmeldelser

Breakwater Hostel i Newquay roses for sin utmerkede beliggenhet, nær Fistral Beach og byens fasiliteter. Gjestene fremhever det vennlige, imøtekommende personalet og den avslappede, sosiale surfer-stemningen, noe som gjør det ideelt for soloreisende og surfere. Selv om det generelt er rent, nevner noen nylige anmeldelser begrensede kjøkkenfasiliteter og mangel på skap.

Great location, close to the beach and nice staff. Room was decent in the 3 bed dorm, although quite hot. A fan during the heat would have been beneficial. The toilets dont flush though which is very gross and people came knocking on the door trying to get in at 3am in my room. Was a bit scary and when mentioned to staff in the morning they said oh well they didnt get in and happens sometimes. Turns out other rooms were also attempted entry. Social enough though otherwise. would stay again.

In general, it's a good Hostel. The location is great, nearby from everything. The kitchen is a little bit small, and they can have more stuff to cook, but overall it's good. It's super clean, everyday there is someone cleaning the kitchen and the toilet. It's a surfer vibe so everything is nice. The bed is not the best one, on every bed we have we can feel the spring in the mattress. For the price it's worth it
