Great location and accommodation was such great value. Lou and Rob were super friendly and Lou was such a good surf teacher. Really liked everything

We loved the location and Lou and Rob were very friendly and helpful

The whole experience was great, Lou's instructing was brilliant, the location is fantastic, and Rob is a top guy. Highly recommend.

This was my first time travelling alone and the first time I've ever surfed properly. I was made very welcome when I arrived which was lovely. The breakfast was more than enough - you don't want a full English when you're about to have a surf lesson! The surfing was a great experience. Lou was extremely knowledgeable and super patient with me and the other girls. I felt that I learned loads and definitely improved over the 3 days I was there. The location of the lodge was excellent, a stone's throw away from Fistral Beach and the town. The beds were clean and comfy as were the bathroom facilities. Overall, this was one of the best experiences I've ever had. Thank you to Base Surf for your hospitality. I honestly can't fault anything and I will be back!

The surf lessons were great, I was a complete beginner and Lou was very good, she was patient and helpful with feedback.. I managed to get the hang of it and was very happy with my progress! Would definitely recommend!

I stayed at base surf lodge with my 11 year old son, we had three lessons with Lou and she was absolutely fantastic, she managed to teach us to stand on the boards by the third day and we havent stopped talking about our surf holiday since. Lou and Rob are both really friendly and Lou is a great teacher. I really could not recommend Base Surf Camp enough if you are looking for a surf holiday in England.

Loved surfing lesson! Lou was very attentive during the lesson and instructions were easy to understand. Had so much fun!

Accommodation was cosy and kept very clean, and the communal areas provided a nice space to relax and chat to others. Surf lessons were really enjoyable and as a complete beginner I found I made great progress thanks to Lou's excellent tuition. I hope to come again for another 'surf and stay' package in the future!

Excellent surfing instructor, the location and the chilled and clean and comfortable lodge

Lou and Rob were magnificent hosts from the moment I booked my trip and even after I was back home. I am definitely coming back to this gem - I can not fault anything, the experience was unique and value for money. If you are looking for a place to stay and meet like- minded and awesome people BASE SURF LOGDE IS YOUR PLACE!

Also the fact Fistral beach was literally 5 mins away made things easier and accessible.

Base offers a really excellent surf school experience for both beginners and intermediates. I've been to several other schools and found that they struggle a lot with pitching lessons at the right level, but Lou is an amazing instructor who knows how to assess individual skills and tailor her lesson plan and individual instruction to the level that's needed. Also, this is the only surf school I've been to where I felt that the instruction on the shore and exercises we did on the beach actually helped everyone to improve in the water (yes, even for someone who can already functionally ride a board). The school is really well located with access to both Fistral beach and the harbour, so there are great options for a really wide range of surf conditions. Also, the accommodation is really nice and the vibe is very chill. :)

Lou and Rob are so welcoming and have a great set up at base. Surf lessons were brilliant - Lou is a great teacher! The surf and stay package is really good value. Highly recommend for anyone looking to surf in Newquay. Really quick access to the beach for the lessons. The house garden was particularly nice for eating breakfast. I can’t wait to go back!

Accommodation was very organised and had all you need for a nice break. Surfing equipment was available so no need to worry about booking it from somewhere else. Lessons were great, following Lou's pointers progress was fast even in a short break. Lou took time to modify the session according to how you were progressing. Great small holiday.

The location is fantastic, right next to the beach and the town. The surf lessons were great and the instructor gave helpful tailored advice to each of us.

The location is perfect, 5 minutes by foot from the beach and the town center.

The instructors are dedicated and give very good feedback, we have made such good progress thanks to them!

Close to the beach and supermarket. Teachers worry about each student and give everyone enough attention.

Loved the whole experience! Lou is such an amazing instructor and so patient. A lovely clean, modern hostel. Will definitely be back next year.

The whole stay was really well worth the money and trip. Super chill and nice owners. Great little spot and the lessons were so specific to your needs and loads of fun. Will be back for sure.

Lou, our instructor, was fantastic and patient. She was a great teacher and a wonderful host. The lodge is clean and in an ideal location.

The surf classes were really good and I feel like I learned a lot. While I was there we were a rather smaller group, which was great since Lou would tell us how to improved after every wave we caught. Lou made sure that we always knew where to catch good waves even if there were a lot of people in the water. The equipment was new and the accommodation was very nice. It felt more like a home for the week than a hostel. The hostel is located only a 5 Minute walk from Fistral Beach and there are some nice coastal walks around the area.
