Beachside, Porth

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?

Situated between Newquay and Watergate Bay on the rugged North Cornwall coast, Porth is a large, west-facing sandy beach, sheltered by headlands on either side and with a cafe, restaurant and pub right next to the beach.

Porth is the kind of beach that kids dream of with sheltered soft sand and rock pools galore, a stream flowing down to the shoreline and even an island with a wooden bridge across to it.

Lifeguards patrol the beach from May to September, making it safe for swimming and bodyboarding. Even during the height of summer, Porth provides a sense of peace.

• A chic garden-level apartment right on the edge of the sand with a private beach-side terrace - perfect for al fresco dining.
• Fresh, contemporary interior with a luxurious finish and a beautifully light and spacious feel.
• Great views across the sand, over Porth Island and out to sea.
• Tucked away from the road to provide a relaxing sense of peace and seclusion.

What Can I Walk To?

• Cafe Coast Porth
• The Mermaid Inn
• Roo's Beach Shop
• Estrella Morada Tapas Bar
• Lusty Glaze beach
• For the more energetic is a beach walk all the way to Watergate Bay at low tide. It's a fantastic walk and you can finish it off with a sundowner at The Beach Hut or the Jamie Oliver's Fifteen Cornwall (both overlook the sand), before heading back on the coast path.
