Park up in one of two allocated spots, drop your bags inside, then get out into the sunshine. Pick from two decked sun terraces with sea views, light the gas barbecue for a bangers-and burgers blowout, add a little vino from Wadebridge Wines, then bring yourself to the boil in the eight-person hot tub.
As the night draws in, wrap up in a throw and stay out to socialise under the stars around the wood stove next to the table.
In England’s Surfing Central, there’s a beachy feel to the décor at The Blue Door. Crisp blues and whites dominate amid pictures of surfers and heritage Newquay prints on the walls. Cool, washed-out hues colour your experience in a vibe that’s uber-trendy, yet offers enough of a family feel to make it the perfect beach escape for any big group.
After a day exploring Cornwall’s romantic north coast, come home to tasteful, opulent soft furnishings and occasional furniture. Get the gang together for nights around the full Sky package, Amazon Prime Video or Netflix. Post your bleachy, beachy holiday shots to Instagram with the BT Wi-Fi.
The Blue Door comes fully equipped with style and space, with a contemporary vibe that beautifully reflects its coastal location. We can help you gather, chill, catch up, celebrate, watch bad movies together, and remember what matters in life. And if you need to hang your wetsuit or store your surfboard, we can do that as well.
The dining table’s big enough for 14 and the kitchen comes fully equipped with a fan oven, grill oven and four induction hobs, so you can feed the 5000 without fuss. And if you want to turn water into wine, the Atlantic Vineyard can help. Eating al-fresco? The gas barbecue on the deck comes with views of the big blue, north-coast yonder.
If you’d prefer to simply stare at the view with a bottle of bubbles in your hand, talk to us about hiring a pro chef for the evening, for a hog roast, for a barbie or for a fully catered break. Getting used to putting your feet up? How about pizza from The Stable or the ultimate takeaway: fish suppers or curries from Rick Stein’s?
Fill a hole with handmade burgers from Belushi’s, piled high with good stuff like Monterey Jack cheese, smoky streaky bacon and blue Stilton. Or how about 12 Beach Road for Cornish fish, seaside signatures, grills, tacos and sourdough pizza, freshly cooked to order?
Get down to Cove 24 for red-lentil pasta or seafood linguine, then relax with a cocktail and a sea view in the upstairs lounge. For Australian fusion, Bush Pepper’s the place: Cajun-spiced kangaroo fillet, maybe? Or head to The Fish House Fistral, right on the beach and serving fish straight from Newquay harbour.
And so to bed, with the sound of the surf in your ears and the briny aroma of the sea air in your nostrils. The Blue Door comes with six deluxe, en-suite bedrooms that will take a cot if needed, offering flexible, multigenerational space for up to 18 – plus telly in bed.
Ground-floor bedroom one sleeps two in a superking, while bedroom two sleeps six on the first floor in bunk beds. Bedroom three provides a kingsize bed and a radio, as does bedroom four with the addition of a sofa bed. Up on the second floor, bedroom five and six offer kingsize beds, with six adding a sofa bed.
