This chic contemporary penthouse apartment sits on the fourth floor just 150 metres from the shoreline of Watergate Bay – the adrenalin junkie's paradise which embodies the spirit of the North Cornwall coast. Occupying a quiet position overlooking the gardens, it is ideal for families, couples, and surfers alike. Watergate Bay's two miles of sand draw thrill seekers and dog walkers, while scarlet sunsets set the sky alight as you dine in the beachfront eateries or sip a warming hot chocolate on the sand.
Inside, the light and spacious open-plan living area features patio doors and a Juliet balcony with garden views, two three-seater sofas that convert into king-size beds, and a smart TV with Netflix. A drop-leaf dining table seats up to six guests, and the fully equipped kitchen includes a Nespresso coffee machine and washing machine. WiFi is available, and a cot and highchair can be provided. The master bedroom has a super-king-size bed with built-in wardrobe, while the bathroom offers a bath, rainfall shower, and heated towel rail. Lift access is available to the apartment. Outside, there is designated parking for one car, a communal surf shower to rinse off after a day at the beach, and a secure storage cage in the basement for surf boards, wetsuits, and beach toys.
Head across the road and down the slipway to reach the beach, where you can plunge into watersports lessons – try your hand at surfing, kayaking, stand-up paddleboarding, and kite surfing, with the beach exposed to incoming Atlantic swell. Stride out along the coast path with nearby walks to Newquay and its array of shops, restaurants, and galleries, or head to Mawgan Porth and Porth beach. The lively atmosphere at Watergate Bay is as constant as the tides, with vibrant music festivals and surf competitions running throughout the year.
