Car parking in Newquay isn’t as troublesome as some of the other tourist hotspots, but as with any popular Cornwall town or village it’s always worth planning ahead when it comes to travel. On-street parking is highly unlikely anywhere in peak season, so we’d recommend choosing one of the many long stay car parks in Newquay.

If you’re looking for a short stay car park in Newquay, there’s a Council run car park on Fore Street (44 spaces), for up to 30 min it’s £1.30, up to 1 hour – £2.20, or 1 to 2 hours – £4.40. It’s not the most cost-effective way to park, and it’s likely that you’ll need more time.

Many of Cornish Secrets properties come with their own parking space, click here to see our Newquay self-catering accommodation.
