This contemporary two-bedroom, first-floor apartment sits just across the road from Porth Beach on the North Cornwall coastline – a wide sandy beach sheltered by two headlands where streams, rock pools, and caves beg to be explored. Small families and explorers of all ages will lose hour after happy hour here. When children draw a seaside scene, they draw Porth – a sweep of beach providing ample terrain for sandcastle building, with stunning coastal views from the apartment's private balcony.
Inside, a light-filled open-plan living, dining, and kitchen space opens through sliding doors to the private balcony with beach and sea views. The living area has a comfy sofa, a tub chair, and a TV, while the modern kitchen includes a washer/dryer for taking care of holiday laundry. Underfloor heating runs throughout during the chillier months. The master bedroom has a double bed and an en-suite shower room, and a twin bedroom offers two single beds – both bedrooms feature built-in wardrobes, TVs, and doors to the communal gardens. A family bathroom rounds out the accommodation. Outside, level access leads to communal rear gardens with a patio area, a washing line, and a surf shower, plus secure surf storage and a dedicated parking space for one car.
A narrow wooden footbridge leads to Porth Island, a headland full of history – watch at mid-tide, particularly on windy days, as the blowhole shoots rainbow sprays of water. Bring a camera to capture dramatic sunrises and storms alike. Down on the beach (40 metres), beachside eateries serve sizzling tapas and ice cream. Lusty Glaze Beach (0.5 miles) is a short walk south along the coast path, while Watergate Bay, the rolling cliffs of Mawgan Porth, and Newquay's golden bays are all within 4 miles.
