This sleek apartment perched high on the cliffs overlooking the Atlantic Ocean and Porthtowan beach makes an ideal retreat for couples seeking a beach-side escape on north Cornwall's rugged coast. Sea views stretch from almost every room, and a private footpath leads directly from the balcony down to the golden sand below – as though the beach were your own front garden. Peacefully located in an almost traffic-free position, the apartment sits above a lovely village with a relaxed, off-the-beaten-path feel.
Inside, the open-plan living area features a sofa, armchair, and 48-inch television, with a door opening onto the balcony and access to the steps down to the beach. A round dining table sits alongside a fully equipped kitchen complete with a wine fridge and breakfast bar with two stools. The bedroom has a double bed, its own television, and two floor-to-ceiling windows framing uninterrupted sea views, with a door also opening onto the balcony. The bathroom has a walk-in shower and heated towel rail. Underfloor heating and Wi-Fi run throughout, and a utility cupboard houses a washer/dryer. Outside, the balcony is furnished with a table and two chairs and offers exceptional views over the bay. There is designated off-road parking for one car and a secure surf store for boards and beach toys.
Porthtowan has a handful of cafes, pubs, and restaurants, plus surf hire and lessons to keep you busy. Great walks along the South West Coast Path lead to neighbouring beaches, and the beautiful St Agnes is accessible on foot along the path or by a short drive, where you will find plenty of places to eat out and enjoy an evening cocktail on the beach.
