I can't find any fault with this establishment whatsoever we had the classic room with king size bed with sea view clean tidy and very comfortable breakfast superb so good I've booked for next June i would highly recommend a stay.
Wonderful location, great hosts, spotlessly clean, very accommodating staff, great breakfast, terrific views from our room, free onsite parking, electric car charging stations.
I really recommend staying here. Lovely clean b&b, helpful owners, central to everything. I was a woman travelling by myself, I felt safe & when I had an issue with my tyre they were happy to help. Beautiful scenery on the doorstep and a lovely little town nearby
Exceptional service from friendly and generous hosts. Stayed 2 nights, good location for exploring Cornwall. Room was snug as described, spotlessly clean and comfortable. John and Amy are great hosts. Small things like having fresh milk available to guests for tea or coffee and having access to the breakfast room for dinner made the stay more enjoyable. Breakfast options were varied and delicious. Overall I can't say enough about how great the hosts are. Would recommend to friends and family without hesitation.
I would not hesitate to recommend this B&B. It is ideally located, spotlessly clean and managed by a delightful couple who do everything they can to make your trip special. Absolutely first class accommodation.
I cannot say enough nice things about gecko's rest the couple John and Amy that run it were so lovely and friendly and helpful the place wasn't just clean it was immaculate all everything was upgraded brand new we just had the best time I would recommend it to anyone I speak to. The little town was a 5 minute walk with plenty of dining options and shopping and
things to do right on the ocean absolutely beautiful little town. They had a beautiful little terrace out front where you could sit after a long day of being a tourist have a glass of wine watch the sunset was lovely.
Very friendly and helpful owners. They were in touch pre-arrival and were there to welcome us on the day. The room was modern, clean and comfortable with a view over Newquay to the sea. A comfortable bed, good shower, good Wi-Fi and an excellent cooked breakfast.
Attention to detail was wonderful . The rooms , decor and comfort were exemplary . The hosts have taken every care to make the stay memorable . We can’t recommend this property highly enough and would without hesitation make it our choice on any future visit . The inclusive safe parking and quality breakfasts make this your number one choice

John and Amy were lovely friendly and very helpful the breakfast was delicious and plentiful. You couldnt ask for anything more they were even interested in our excursions.
Great welcome and communication from John & Amy. Lovely comfortable house. Excellent breakfasts.
We requested a sea view room, fantastic choice great views over Newquay. Large room, great to have 2 comfortable chairs by the window.
We stayed in the sea-view room on the top floor and it exceeded our expectations. Great view, clean, modern and comfortable, and impressed with the fridge, choice of teas, iron and fan. The WiFi was fast and reserved parking was easy.
The breakfast was very delicious and we received top service. We also ordered the breakfast ‘to go’ bag on the second day which was efficient and thoughtfully put together. We had a sausage sandwich with fruit, yogurt and a juice.
It was close and a short walk to the town centre.
We felt welcomed as soon as we arrived and would like to thank the owners for their brilliant service.
Die Gastgeber waren sehr freundlich. Das Zimmer war gut. Das Frühstück war super. Man hatte die Gelegenheit im Speisezimmer den Kühlschrank zu benutzen und auch dort mitgebrachte Speisen zu verzehren. Auch konnte man sich Getränke und Snacks aus dem Kühlschrank nehmen, auf eine Liste eintragen und am Ende des Aufenthaltes bezahlen. Gerne würden wir wieder kommen.
Best holiday and stay. So welcoming and the accommodation was clean to high standard and had everything you needed. Breakfast was amazing. We will be going back and everything was what we wanted.
Wonderful relaxing time at Geckos Rest at Newquay. Hosts were friendly and helpful. Room was clean and tidy. Breakfast was superb. Would highly recommend. Close to the beach and all Newquay has to offer
