Highlights

Walk to the beach

It takes seconds – walk across the lawn and you are on the sand.

Best thing about

The position – is it possible to be closer to the beach? The soft sand of Porth beach is right outside the door, and the views out to sea are fantastic.

The Details

Location

Beachside is just that. A cool and contemporary apartment which opens out to gardens and a gate leading directly onto Porth beach. No roads to cross, just a wide expanse of sand on your doorstep.

Where is it?

When children draw a seaside scene, they draw Porth. Streams, rockpools and caves beg to be explored, whilst a sweep of beach provides ample terrain for sandcastle building and sand-fairy making. Families, adventurers and explorers of all ages will lose hour after happy hour here.

A narrow wooden footbridge leads to Porth Island, a headland full of history. Watch in awe at mid tide, particularly on windy days, as the blow hole shoots rainbow sprays of water. Embrace the theatre of Porth Island any time of day or all year round, just wrap up warm and bring a camera to capture dramatic sunrises and storms alike.

Back down on the beach, melted strawberry ice cream drips down sides of candy cones and sizzling tapas is served at Porth's beachside eateries. Once you've soaked up the Porth scene, try heading towards Newquay's bays, up the coast path to Whipsiderry and Watergate, or towards the rolling cliffs of Mawgan Porth and Bedruthan Steps.
