FROM JAW dropping extreme sports and gravity-defying surfing to some of biggest names in music – the Boardmasters Festival has it all.

It’s fast becoming one of the UK’s biggest and best festivals.

And a stay at the Carnmarth Hotel means you’re literally just yards away from all the action.

As one of the premier hotels in Newquay, we’re situated a stone’s throw from Fistral Beach, where the extreme sports element and some of the music gigs will take place.

Within moments you can go from relaxing in our top quality bar or restaurant to being within touching distance of the BMX, surfing and skateboarding events, which all take place in the surrounds of Fistral’s golden sands.

The jewel in the crown of Boardmasters is the surfing, which this year has been upgraded to a six-star rating – meaning an even higher standard than in previous years.

Expect to be amazed as some of the tour’s most recognized names take to the waves to compete.

And if you’re a music fan, The Carnmarth Hotel is ideally located for all the gigs – just a few miles from where the likes of Dizzee Rascal, The Ting Tings, Ed Sheeran, Ruarri Joseph and many more will take to the stage.

It all takes place from August 8-12 and our beach side hotel is the ideal place to see it all.

With great sea views looking out across Fistral and the bay The Carnmarth is one of the best Newquay hotels to from where catch all the action.

We combine the glory of a classic British cliff-top hotel with the best of modern facilities to create and intimate, relaxed feel.
