Is Newquay nice?
Like most big towns and cities in the world, it has its good bits and its bad bits.
To be honest, Newquay has a bit of a reputation for being a bit of a party town. In fact, about 20 years ago I went there on a stag do with a bunch of mates and had a great time. So if you are looking to party it’s a great place to go. If you have a young family it’s probably likely that you’ll be on a holiday park where entertainment is all laid on so you might not need to go into town at night so it won’t affect you anyway.
I know that there are steps being taken to try and make it more family-oriented.
Is Newquay worth visiting?
I love Newquay, I have fond memories of visiting there with my dearly departed parents when I was a kid.
I was bought my first skateboard in Newquay and as I mentioned previously I celebrated a good mate’s forthcoming nuptials so it only holds good memories for me.
Cornwall is quite a small county so if you are coming by car you can easily get around and visit so many great places in Cornwall.
