This third-floor penthouse apartment sits directly on Perranporth beach in a prime position with panoramic sea views, making it an ideal base for families, walkers and adventurers eager to explore Cornwall's north coast. Perranporth is unique in landscape and atmosphere – its wild cliffs and countryside inspired Winston Graham to write the Poldark novels, and it's easy to see why. Hike atop vast hills, hear giggles echo in secret caves, or nestle amongst silky dunes feeling the soft embrace of sun-warmed sand.
Inside, the open-plan living, dining and kitchen space features floor-to-ceiling glass windows with breath-taking views over golden sand dunes, beach and Atlantic Ocean. The living area includes a large corner sofa, four additional chairs, a 77-inch flatscreen TV and doors leading out to the terrace. A fully equipped kitchen offers a large breakfast bar with four stools, induction hob, electric oven, microwave, tall fridge-freezer, wine fridge and Nespresso coffee machine. The master bedroom has a super-king bed with ensuite rainfall shower and a sliding door to a small terrace with sea views. A second bedroom provides a super-king zip-and-link bed that can be made into two singles, while the third bedroom has a double bed. A separate family bathroom with bath and shower completes the sleeping quarters. Outside, a large balcony with comfy outdoor sofa and chairs offers a front-row seat to fiery Cornish sunsets, and a second balcony off the master bedroom has a bistro table and chairs. Lift access serves all floors, two designated secure parking spaces are provided, and there is storage for surfboards and beach gear, an outside tap for washing off sand, and private beach access via a footpath.
From colourful streets dotted with alternative boutiques to the golf club on the green cliff tops, it is easy to while away hour after happy hour in this bubbly coastal town. At low tide, wild swim in Perranporth's natural open-air pool – its waters reaching Mediterranean temperatures in summer. The coastal path connects to popular spots including Wheal Coates mine and St Agnes, while a short drive takes you to Fistral Beach and Watergate Bay.
