2 Bed Apartment in Porthtowan

About this property

This spacious apartment sits in a striking elevated position above Porthtowan Beach on Cornwall's north coast, with views that sweep across the sand, the headland, and the open ocean beyond. Families and couples seeking a coastal holiday built around surfing, beach days, and clifftop walks will find the sandy stretch directly below, with surf hire and lessons available in the village. Porthtowan itself sits at the foot of high cliffs, its dune-backed beach buffered by an almost traffic-free setting that gives the village a quiet, unhurried feel quite different from busier resorts further along this stretch of coast. The village is just along from the better-known St Agnes but retains its own distinct, laid-back character. The coast path passes through the village, connecting it to neighbouring beaches in both directions. Walks along the clifftops open up dramatic scenery and wide Atlantic panoramas.

Floor-to-ceiling windows and patio doors fill the apartment with natural light and frame the coastal panorama from almost every angle. The open-plan living area has comfortable seating and a Smart TV with Blu-Ray player, with patio doors opening directly onto a large balcony overlooking the bay. The kitchen sits alongside, well equipped for self-catering and sharing the same open aspect. A hallway leads through to the bedrooms – the master has a king-size bed, two floor-to-ceiling windows with uninterrupted sea views, and its own patio door onto the balcony. The en-suite shower room features a double shower enclosure and WC. Further along the hallway, the twin bedroom has two small single beds and also looks out to sea. A family bathroom with shower over the bath and WC is adjacent. A utility cupboard in the hallway houses the washer/dryer. A selection of books, DVDs, and games is available for quieter days.

The balcony runs along the front of the apartment, with far-reaching views over the bay, the headland, and the open sea – large enough for al fresco dining with the ocean as a backdrop. A secure surf store provides space for boards and beach equipment. Access to the apartment from the car park is via 63 steps. Allocated parking is provided for one car in the car park
