Marina Court:
Completed in 2009 by award-winning developers McCarthy Stone, Marina Court is a striking development occupying a commanding location 5 minutes walk away from the Town Centre amenities and the seafront of this famous coastal location. Providing an independent living opportunity specifically for those over 60 years of age, the development enjoys a host of facilities for the benefit of home owners not least of which is the charming communal lounge. In addition, there is a lift serving all floors, mobility scooter store, laundry room and a beautifully mature landscaped garden.
Further peace-of-mind is found in the service provided by our House Manager who oversees the smooth running of the development. There is also a 24-hour emergency call system in the apartments and communal areas for peace of mind. A guest suite is available to receive family and friends for which a small charge per night is made.
It’s so easy to make new friends and to lead a busy and fulfilled life at Marina Court; there are always plenty of regular activities to choose from including; coffee mornings, games and quiz nights, seasonal and themed events and occasional organised trips. Whilst there is something for everyone there is certainly no obligation to participate and home owners ‘dip in and out’ of activities as they wish.
The Local Area:
The last few years have seen Newquay blossom as a destination for lovers of good food, with restaurants such as Rick Steins’ Fistral taking advantage of the beachside views and fresh-caught fish to serve a classic seaside meal whilst watching the surf.
But it’s not all fish, there’s any number of eateries located all over the town, serving everything from Cornish pasties to fish and chips, international cuisine and much, much more.
It’s no secret that one of Newquay’s greatest features is its beaches. There’s a different beach for every day of the week, with an array of activities at each one. From Fistral where Britain’s greatest surfing events are very often held, to the family friendly Towan Beach right in the centre of town, or the outlying beaches at Crantock and Watergate Bay.
Hundreds of restaurants, a beach for every day of the week, and to top it all off, it’s all wrapped up in the most incredible coastal scenery. Newquay is a seaside town that you just wouldn’t want to miss.
Away from the beaches and the surf, there’s no shortage of other attractions in the area. Newquay Zoo is conveniently located near the centre of Newquay and has a host of exotic animals to see. There’s an aquarium, a cinema, skate park, boating lake, fun for all the family at Lappa Valley and the National Trust’s Trerice Manor a short distance out of town. There are all forms of golf from crazy to challenging, and none of Cornwall’s other great attractions are too far away.
