The recently refurbished contemporary and spa-led Bay Hotel offers the ideal venue for couples, groups or single people who are looking for some active relaxation.

The Bay’s family orientated sister hotel, The Esplanade, benefits from the same astounding sea views but offers a restaurant, lounge areas and a range of bedrooms set up for the perfect Christmas for parents and children. The hotel is directly opposite the beach and with up-to-date facilities, an air of understated sophistication and a relaxed atmosphere it also has something to keep everyone entertained, no matter what the Christmas weather brings.

Both The Bay and Esplanade have a small number of rooms available for just £50 per person per night for bed and breakfast.

A special relaxed ‘Survivors Brunch’ will also be served on New Years’ Day allowing every guest a lovely long lie-in.
For those requiring ‘Revitalisation’, a refreshing mini spa break will also be available at The Bay from 27th-30th December to provide them with the ideal tonic.

James Nettleton, Director of both The Bay and Esplanade Hotels says, “The festive season is a brilliant time for people to get away and either see out or bring in the New Year by the beach. There’s nothing better than a bracing walk on the beach rounded off with relaxation session in our exceptional spa, so with these unbeatable rates we’re expecting lots of visitors. This is also the perfect opportunity for Newquay residents to treat their families to a last minute stay as a Christmas present or New Year treat. We look forward to welcoming everyone at both establishments.”
