This beautifully finished ground floor apartment is perched high on the cliffs overlooking Porthtowan beach and the Atlantic Ocean, making it an ideal base for families looking to enjoy north Cornwall's rugged coast. A private footpath leads directly onto the golden sand below, while the village itself has a lovely, relaxed off-the-beaten-path feel with a pretty sandy beach backed by cliffs.
Inside, light-filled open-plan living, dining and kitchen space sets a relaxing tone. The living area features a three-seater sofa, two armchairs, a large Smart TV, Bluetooth speaker and patio doors opening onto a generous balcony with stunning sea views. The kitchen comes equipped with four induction hobs, an electric oven, microwave, coffee machine, under-counter fridge freezer, wine fridge, dishwasher and a breakfast bar with two stools. A utility cupboard in the hallway houses a washer/dryer, and there is an iron, ironing board, hairdryer and a selection of books and games. The master bedroom has a king-size bed and two floor-to-ceiling windows framing sea views, with an en-suite featuring a large rain shower, heated towel rail and WC. A zip-and-link twin bedroom – which can be made into a king – also enjoys floor-to-ceiling windows and fantastic sea views. The family bathroom includes a deep bath with an over-bath shower and heated towel rail. Outside, the balcony seats four and is perfect for a lazy afternoon watching the surfers. A generous gravel courtyard to the side provides seating for four guests and two sun loungers for al-fresco dining. Designated off-road parking is available for one car, and there is a secure surf store for boards and beach toys, plus a communal outdoor shower for rinsing off after a day on the sand.
Porthtowan offers a handful of cafes, pubs and restaurants, along with surf hire and lessons. Great walks along the coast path lead to neighbouring beaches, and the beautiful St Agnes is accessible on foot via the South West Coast Path – around 3 miles away – or a short drive, where you will find plenty of places to eat out and enjoy an evening tipple on the beach.
