This eco-chic apartment occupies a prime position on the cliffs above Watergate Bay in North Cornwall, offering families and couples a front-row seat to one of the coast's most exciting beaches. Scarlet sunsets set the sky alight as you dine in the swanky beachfront eateries or sip a warming hot chocolate on the sand. The property backs onto endless peaceful fields.
Designed in reverse accommodation style, the living area sits on the first floor to make the best of the dramatic sea views. A spacious open-plan living room with barrel-rolled ceiling and widescreen TV with BT TV opens through full-width sliding glass doors onto a generous balcony furnished with a table, chairs, and sun loungers. The dining area features banquette seating, and the fully equipped kitchen includes a Nespresso Vertuo coffee machine. Ecologically sustainable features – sedum roofs, air source heat pumps, and bris soleil temperature control – keep the apartment comfortable and environmentally sound, with underfloor heating throughout and WiFi. A cloakroom, travel cot, and high chair are available. The master bedroom has a super king-size bed plus single truckle bed, wall-mounted TV, and en-suite bathroom with freestanding double-ended bath, shower enclosure, and heated towel rail. The second bedroom offers a zip-and-link bed available as twin or super king, with its own en-suite shower room. A utility cupboard houses a washer and tumble dryer. Outside, a ground-floor patio area leads to a store room with wetsuit rack and outdoor surf shower. Designated parking for one car is provided, with two electric vehicle charge points available in the car park.
Watergate Bay's two miles of sand are popular with families, couples, and dogs alongside surfers and thrill seekers. The beach is exposed to incoming Atlantic swell, making it excellent for watersports – try your hand at surfing, kayaking, stand-up paddleboarding, or kite surfing with the local surf school. Stride out on a long ramble or short jaunt along the coast path with nearby walks to Newquay's seven bays or Mawgan Porth. The lively atmosphere at Watergate is as constant as the tides, with vibrant music festivals and surf competitions running throughout the year.
