Step out and savour sweeping views across Porthtowan Beach from this superb coastal apartment. Light-filled, spacious and modern, this two-person retreat features French doors and large windows throughout, framing the incredible sea views, plus an elevated balcony where you can sit out and sip your coffee while listening to the lap of the waves. The beach, just a few steps away, is a prime surfing spot, so you can watch the experts hit the waves from the comfort of your holiday home or use the property’s handy surf store to bring your own equipment and sample the surf for yourself.

Offering a blend of reclaimed driftwood furnishings and tonal shades of blue set against a crisp white backdrop, this modern holiday home makes an ideal coastal escape. Leave your car in the shared car park and take the 63 external steps along the cliffside to reach your single-storey space. Inside, the sleek layout includes an open-plan living area with lounge, kitchen and diner, with large windows offering panoramic sea views and access to the furnished balcony. You can also access the balcony from the bedroom, just next door, where a plush double bed sits opposite a second Smart TV for cosy night-time entertainment. The bathroom is off the main hallway and is fully tiled with a walk-in shower. There’s also a utility room in the apartment, plus secure surf storage at car park level.

Grab your boards and hit the waves, crossing the road to reach Porthtowan Beach in an instant. A selection of waterfront pubs, restaurants and tearooms also line the beachfront, ideal for easy refreshment after a day by the sea. If walking’s more your bag, you’re positioned right on the South West Coast Path for effortless clifftop routes. Follow the path up to St Agnes Head on the Heritage Coast (2.5 miles), passing twinkling bays and secluded beaches as you hike.
