The property is ideal for walkers, water sports enthusiasts, nature spotters, and beach lovers. The sandy, mile-long beach at Holywell Bay is less than 500 metres from your door, where you can wander the dunes and seek out the holy well at the far end of the beach, visible at low tide. Explore the delightful Cornish villages of Cubert and Crantock (both within 3 miles), offering a range of welcoming pubs and restaurants. A little further is the bustling coastal town of Newquay (6 miles), home to several superb beaches.

Step directly from the driveway into this cosy and inviting apartment, then through into the bright and airy open-plan lounge, kitchen, and dining area. The space is decorated in light, relaxing shades and boasts stylish, contemporary furnishings and decor. Relax on the sofa after a day of discovery and enjoy a movie night courtesy of a Smart TV. A breakfast bar to one side provides the ideal spot for a morning coffee and informal meals. The kitchen area has all the necessary appliances to rustle up a romantic dinner, a late brunch, or a picnic to go. Just off this open-plan area is the double bedroom. A shower room with a WC completes the features of this attractive apartment. Outside is a charming seating area, with garden furniture where you can relax, dine alfresco and take in the beautiful surrounding views. Parking is available for one car.

The Kitchen/Lounge was smaller than expected but perfectly formed. There is a shed outside for beach things and a hose to remove sand. Inside there is enough storage space and all the kitchen equipment you need. Towels, tea towels, oven gloves, bin bags, toilet rolls, hand soap for the bathroom were all provided. The beach is close by but accessiRead moreng can be a little tricky for those with mobility issues. Beautiful beach, great for shell hunters, also some sea glass found. Hide

A nice modern apartment, with all the essentials, and in a great location and just a short walk to Holywell beach, the open plan living room and kitchen was smaller than expected but we would still consider stopping again, the host was on hand if we had any problems but was not needed
