Newquay estate agents must be pleased with the level of sales enquiries, since this is once again the most popular location for moving home and has now featured in the Top 10 of the UK Property Shop 'Moving Location Index' for each of the last seven months.
Maybe it has something to do with being "Britain's favourite family holiday" destination, according to the Newquay Guide; or "the capital of England's surfing scene with 11 beaches stretching over seven miles of golden sand" as described on the Surf Newquay website. And it's not all beaches either with numerous bars, nightclubs, restaurants and famous zoo. Newquay's Cornwall International Airport is growing fast, with new services linking with London Gatwick, London Stansted, Bristol, Manchester, Leeds/Bradford, Dublin and Cardiff.
Even estate agents Strutt & Parker from Exeter are caught up in the buying frenzy, with a smart new development of spectacular coastal apartments, featuring a fourth floor penthouse on the market at £750,000 - surely a record price for this type of property in Newquay.
