“Warm, cosy , friendly + Perfect Location!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 13 April 2011

I stayed here with my boyfriend for 3 windy and slightly damp (between sunny spells!) October days!
We loved Goofy's. We arrived late in the evening after our flight was delayed and were still greeted by Andy, who was cheerful & showed us to our room.
We were more than happy with our room, it was very clean, fresh, light, good tv but most importantly for us - the beds were extremely comfy (and the bed linen was lovely!) Shower was good and we always had hot water.
Breakfast was fab, We enjoyed going down whenever we wanted and the variation each morning was great.

Gwen gave us some tips as the weather was a bit shoddy and we had a lovely couple of days. Overall, we had a lovely few days in and around Newquay. Goofy's was a lovely place to go back to at the end of the day and the comfy bed after a long walk or wander round town was much appreciated & the price was very good too. We will be back!

Room Tip: Fistral Blu, restaurant near by - Great steak!

“Brilliant Place - Will definately stay there for many years to come!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 14 October 2010

Goofy's is managed by a very friendly family & we were made to feel very welcome. I loved the set out & the rooms were fantastic - very clean, modern & the shower was the best shower I have had in a B&B for years. Very powerful, exactly what you need when you return from the beach!

Its located just a 3 minute walk from Fistral beach & a 5 minute walk to the town centre. Really enjoyed my stay & will certainly be back again - for sure!

“Excellent August bank holiday weekend stay.”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 30 August 2010

Goofys is a brilliant place to stay and really can't be faulted. The owners are extremely friendly and really make you feel welcome. Rooms are clean, tidy and modern with nice powerful, hot showers (after a day of surfing, you'll be thankful)! The location is also second to nun with literally a minute walk to Fistral beach one way and a two minute walk the other way to the centre of town. I highly recommend staying here and hope to return again soon.

“Enjoyable stay”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 12 August 2010

I was rather impressed with this place, it's tucked away in a perfect location for Fistral Beach away from the noise of the main town. The staff were friendly and the rooms clean. The only downside was the fact that our rooms weren't cleaned during our stay ( in some ways this was good as we were left to do our own thing) but we did have an overflowing bin. They provided breakfast which was perfect for a busy day as it was left for us to help ourselves and we had full use of the kitchen if we chose to cook dinner and lunch. As Goofy's calls itself a youth hostel it has to be said it is much better than this! Would definitely recommend it for its great location and cleanliness.

“Wouldn't want to be anywhere else!!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 1 August 2010

I've just got back from my 3rd stay at Goofys and it never fails to disappoint!
The owners, Gwen and Andy, and both brilliant - they are easy going, friendly, and extremely helpful; just genuine lovely people. Plus their two boys are very cute and kept us entertained!!
Their hostel - which has now been awarded 4 stars (and rightly so) is stunning. We've stayed in 3 different rooms on 3 different occasions and they are all to an extremely high standard - clean, comfortable and they have amazing views across Fistral or over towards Towan. It is clear to see every time we visit what they have been up to (they are constantly trying to improve) and this year it was fab to see such a lovely new living room upstairs - sofas, bean bags, plus tv, wii, dvd player etc. It is that comfortable and relaxed that I nodded off on the sofa!!
The fact that this is also their home is not a problem - it in fact makes it much more homely and relaxing. They don't mind people using their facilities (kitchen, internet etc) but we always make sure that we leave the place in a tidy condition.
It's location is second to none - right next to Fistral plus just the right distance away from town. It has two car parking spaces to the front of the hostel (I've never had a problem parking), but if these are full Gwen and Andy are always on hand to help you to find somewhere else.

The question below asks if i would recommend this to a friend? well, I would say without a shadow of a doubt i would not only recommend this place to a friend; I'd recommend it to absolutely everybody!!!

Thank you Andy and Gwen for making our holiday!
