Nansledan is worthy of inclusion here as it is an emerging visionary community hub in Newquay spearheaded by King Charles, Prince William and the Duchy of Cornwall. Nansledan, meaning “broad valley” in Cornish, is a landmark urban extension to Newquay, designed to reflect traditional Cornish architecture comprising a sustainable, mixed-use development that is reshaping the future of Newquay. Covering 540 acres, Nansledan is planned to include up to 4,000 homes, with 30% designated as affordable housing.
The development is built around walkable neighbourhoods, integrating homes, shops, offices, schools, and green spaces to create a vibrant and self-sufficient community in a traditional and interesting Cornish Design. Already home to over 1800 residents and 40+ businesses, Nansledan offers a primary school, artisan shops and cafes, wellbeing studios and offices, a community centre and a collection of green spaces including orchards, wildflower meadows, play areas, and woodlands. Nansledan is located just a few miles from Newquay Town Centre and is fast becoming an entity in it’s own right. House prices typically can be slightly higher than similar properties in Newquay due to current popularity.
