Perched on the cliffs with steps down to Porthtowan Beach, this pet-friendly apartment offers breathtaking ocean views alongside a two-bedroom, two-bathroom layout that’s perfect for any party of four. Allocated parking allows you to arrive, unpack, and explore the village and surrounds at leisurely pace – enticing eateries and copper mine remains are close-by.
External steps lead from the car park; once inside, the apartment’s open-plan social space has patio doors onto a private balcony, with fabulous sea views to whet your appetite for swimming, surfing and sandcastles. Comfortable seating and a Smart TV set the scene for relaxing evenings; to the rear the dining suite is complemented by bar-style seating in the high-end kitchen, while a utility cupboard houses laundry equipment. When it’s time to sleep, the master bedroom has a king-size bed, a Smart TV, an en-suite shower room, and tall windows framing sea views. The second bedroom has two full-size single beds, a Smart TV and easy access to the family bathroom. Step from the living area to your private balcony and you can enjoy food and drinks with a side-serving of fabulous coastal views. If you’re bringing surf boards and beach gear there’s space to store them securely.
Just 10 metres below, Porthtowan’s golden sands are backed by large dunes and dramatic cliffs – the South West Coastal Path winds to St Agnes and Portreath (both 4 miles), delivering spectacular views for walkers. At the heart of Cornwall's Heritage Mining Area and sitting between St Ives (19 miles) and Newquay (16 miles), the village is a convenient base for adventures further afield – drive 17 miles cross-country and you can visit the subtropical Trebah Garden. Alternatively, stay local and sample Porthtowan’s fine choice of inns and eateries, some of which are perfectly positioned for savouring the coastline’s stunning sunsets.
