Less than half a mile from sandy Porth beach and within 2 miles of Newquay's town centre, this first-floor apartment is ideal for smaller families seeking secluded accommodation for a beach and surfing holiday on the North Cornish coast. Use of a garage makes drying and managing your seaside gear at the end of the day hassle-free, and the location is great too - this section of coast has a wide variety of beach visits, walks and attractions.

The apartment is bright yet cosy with an open-plan living/kitchen/dining area, and you'll love the balcony lookout with beach views. There's plenty of space for everyone to join in with planning the next day's outing, or to snuggle up on the comfy seating for a movie night in. Overall, the feel is calm and serene. Outside, in a patio area shared with the ground floor apartment, you can enjoy a family BBQ feast and perhaps sundowners on a balmy evening.

Newquay has a lively, youthful buzz and a wealth of bars, surf shops and restaurants, as well as famous Fistral Beach within 4 miles by car. Other attractions include Newquay Zoo and the fascinating Blue Reef Aquarium. Further afield, fans of TV's Poldark series can evoke the romantic past by visiting the St Agnes Heritage Coast section of the South West Coast Path – here you can stride past ruined tin mines, symbols of Cornwall's proud heritage, and gaze out to sea from dramatic clifftops – start at Perranporth, within 10 miles.

Our third stay here & enjoyed every minute of it. The apartment was spotless, well equipped & the beds are comfortable. The new sofa looks great and is comfortable. The complimentary wine & shortbread biscuits were very much appreciated. Thank you !!! We will be returning again.

We have few issues with one radiator. It was on all time but communication with service was very fast.

Very good Location, but we were a little bit disappointed because the balcony was not usable during stay due to a defect door. Many cobwebs at the entrance, but inside clean.

An attractive,well maintained and very clean flat. The location was ideal for the beach,though close to the main road, so noisy through the day,but quieter through the night.

Great property in a fantastic location with parking. No immediate local shop but plenty a mile or so away towards Newquay. Would certainly look to return.

very lovely cottage all mod cons a home from home lovely location about 200 yds from a most amazing beach. It has a nice pub along the beach and a cafe at the end of beach road. the only thing i would mention is that it was on the second floor with quite a lot of steps up to it no problem if you are young but we found it hard as we are 81 yrs old aRead morend live in a bungalow even so we did enjoy it.
