>Hi,
Hope you don't mind my replying to your message, i've just finished uni and have bought a hotel in newquay on headland road three doors down from the famous hotel. It's only 150 yards from fistral, soo if you're feelin lazy. I'm offering to make a deal with you to stay there in the off-season. It's being converted into a surf lodge in September "the cribber surf lodge". I've got a site being made so there should be pics late september. Cheers Jontitley@yahoo.co.uk
