The Esplanade Hotel Newquay

Spring starts at the sea

Beachside hotel in Cornwall

This spring, swap winter’s chill for fresh sea air and longer, lighter days outdoors on the Cornish coast. From family adventures and coastal escapes for two, to surf season getaways, The Esplanade Hotel in Newquay is the place where spring truly starts at the sea.

Fistral Beach is just moments away, ready for sandy adventures, rockpool discoveries and space to roam in the spring sunshine during the Easter holidays and May half term. Spend the day exploring Newquay’s coastline and family attractions, then return to relax in our ocean-view lounge or dive into fun with our swimming pool, indoor and outdoor play areas, free holiday activities and book-nook filled with games.

Check out our FREE May half term activities.
