With a rating of 2.8, this guest house offers a straightforward experience characterized by its clean rooms and hospitable hosts.
The location is undeniably one of Kirribilli’s strongest assets. Just an eight-minute walk brings guests to the sandy shores of Towan Beach, while a slightly longer 17-minute stroll leads to the popular Fistral Beach. This proximity to key coastal attractions makes it an ideal base for beach lovers and visitors eager to explore Newquay’s vibrant town center, all within easy walking distance.
Guests appreciate the practical amenities provided, including pet-friendly and kid-friendly policies and a communal fridge that adds a touch of convenience for storing takeaway food. Although the guest house lacks air conditioning and airport shuttle services, the availability of parking is a distinct advantage, particularly in a busy tourist area.
The atmosphere at Kirribilli is warm and personable, highlighted by owner Raj’s friendly demeanor and familial charm. Repeat visitors attest to the lasting impression of a clean and comfortable environment, even if the guest house does not boast luxury features such as a swimming pool.
While Kirribilli Guest House might not cater to those seeking upscale amenities or modern luxuries, it stands out as a genuine and practical lodging choice. Its honest value, coupled with a prime location and approachable hosts, offers an experience grounded in simplicity and local warmth—a small haven for travelers who prioritize location and a friendly welcome over extravagance.

Reviews from travelers who stayed here in the last 12 months, grouped to help you spot the pattern quickly.
I booked a room quite late in the day, the pictures gave a clear impression of the room that was available showing that it was good value for money. The location was excellent, a stroll down to the town and then onto the beaches and plenty of local amenities within 5 minutes walk, and the fact there was parking made it an obvious choice over others. The Building itself is fine, the outside seating is good, the dining/bar area is contemporary and well stocked, and the owner was friendly, helpful and seemed like a genuinely good guy. Our room was pretty simple and straight forward - we'd gone for the twin room with a shower and sink, and that's what we got - somewhere to put our heads down at the end of the day and start the next one. If you're driving the car park makes it ideal, and it's easy to find from the main road into Newquay. Would have no hesitation in staying here again.
People reviewing a place that they've never stayed at but just seen on a TV program need to get a life. I've stayed here a few times and it's always been clean, raj is a good laugh and his family lovely. Only reason I don't stay here now is because I go for places with swimming pool.
Spent two nights in Kirribilli and even though we had to wait to check-in due to others checking out late, overall we had pleasant stay. The owners are really nice and welcoming. There is a fridge where you can keep your takeaways or any food which is really convenient.
This budget guesthouse is an 8-minute walk from Towan Beach and a 17-minute walk from Fistral Beach.
