Sip a sundowner and watch the changing light over the Atlantic Ocean from your balcony at this apartment on the North Cornwall Coast. Sleeping four guests, the two-bedroom bolthole sits on the second floor of a modern building at Watergate Bay, 3.5 miles from Newquay, just 150 metres from the sandy beach.
Choose whether to make your way up to the south-facing, second-floor apartment via the lift or the stairs. Wander inside to unwind in the open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner, where patio doors slide open to bring in the salty air. Find a film on the Smart TV or listen to music via the Bluetooth speaker as you warm the freshly baked Cornish pasties you have shopped for. The kitchen is well-laid-out for self-catering whenever you decide to dine in. There is a table tucked into a cosy corner for your holiday meals. When you are ready to stretch out for the night, amble through to either the twin bedroom or the super-king-size, which has sea views, an en-suite shower room and zip-and-link beds that can also be set up as two singles by prior arrangement. Both rooms have Smart TVs for late-night viewing. There is also a family bathroom. Make fresh coffee in the machine to enjoy out on the balcony on fine mornings. Dine out here on balmy evenings too. Guests have access to a shared beach shower and storage for surfboards. There is parking here for one car.
Enjoy the many other beautiful beaches in the Newquay area too. Famous Fistral Bay, 5.5 miles away, is, of course, known for its excellent surfing. Make some sandwiches and head off on a 4-mile walk out along the South West Coast Path to Newquay. Explore Padstow, 10.5 miles away, where you can hire bikes and venture out along the Camel Trail.
