Enjoying far-reaching views across Porthtowan Beach and out to Cornwall's north coast beyond, this contemporary cliff-top apartment offers couples and families a serene escape from the hustle and bustle of everyday life.

Enjoying uninterrupted views over Porthtowan Beach, the sea never feels far in the open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner. A sleek, contemporary finish adds a touch of true elegance that invites you to cook, dine and relax at the end of a busy day out on the sand and surf. Budding chefs can cook up a storm in the kitchen, whilst the quaint dining set offers space to enjoy some tasty local treats with your morning coffee or something sparkling. The plush sofa affords wonderful views through the patio doors and can be converted into a bed to cater for an additional two guests. The king-size bedroom boasts floor-to-ceiling windows that frame views of the sea and a patio door leading out to the balcony. The large balcony offers a magnificent backdrop over Porthtowan Beach and beyond, the perfect spot to catch some sublime, melting sunsets. There is allocated parking for one car in the car park.

Set within a dramatic valley on the north coast of Cornwall, the idyllic seaside village of Porthtowan sits at the foot of high cliffs, home to a pretty sandy beach backed by dunes. A retreat for anyone seeking surf, sea air, and coastal walking, Porthtowan Beach is accessed directly from the doorstep, a favourite with families. Surf hire and lessons are available on the beach. Keen walkers can join the iconic South West Coast Path from the cliff-tops above to lead to the neighbouring beaches along this striking stretch of coast. The picturesque village of St Agnes, with its own sweep of golden sand and cliff scenery, can be reached within 4 miles.

The view is amazing and the apartment is comfortable overall and tastefully furnished. It was extremely clean and smelled fresh on arrival but the oven and grill pan could do with a thorough clean. The blind on the bedroom door that leads outside was broken and would only open two thirds down which was rather a privacy issue as this glass door is aRead moret the end of the bed and faces the communal steps to the beach. I did report it but there was no action by the time we left. It is a great apartment though. Hide
