A seaside haven set opposite Watergate Bay Beach, this two-storey holiday home offers a five-star base for adventures along the North Cornwall coastline. Whether you’re looking for endless surf, long hikes along the coast path, or somewhere to stay during the annual Boardmasters festival, this exceptionally styled, high-end apartment is sure to tick all your boxes. It’s an eight-person retreat laid out over two floors, with the living space occupying the first floor and making the most of its endearing views across the bay.
The boutique-style décor of this three-bedroom retreat combines retro tiling, kitsch décor and quirky features throughout, creating a home that’s both comfortable and visually appealing. Spend time in the lounge/kitchen/diner, where wall-to-wall windows frame your sea views and offer access to the full-width balcony, complete with outdoor seating and sun loungers. Breathe in the sea air out here before stepping back inside and sinking into the soft sofas, with the remote-controlled electric fire emitting a warm glow as your designated chef gets busy in the kitchen. All three bedrooms are downstairs: a king-size, a king-size with a zip-and-link bed, and a unique double bunk room with built-in cabin beds, perfect for kids. At ground level, you’ll also find private parking for one car, alongside a shared terrace with an outdoor shower and surf storage.
Watergate Bay is a twinkling gem on the Cornish coastline, home to an annual music festival and a destination for pro surfers year-round. The beach is just 250 metres from your doorstep, so whether you’re looking to sunbathe, swim or tackle some swells, you won’t have far to travel home afterwards. It’s connected to the vibrant local town of Newquay (3.5 miles) by the South West Coast Path. In town, you’ll find plenty of seaside amusements, plus a wide selection of quality pubs, shops and restaurants.
