Overview
Property code: OC-A27276

Superbly located, right opposite the quiet secluded Whipsiderry Beach and just 400 yards from the popular sandy beach at Porth. It is worth the climb down the steep steps to Whipsiderry for a special seaside experience, getting away from the hustle and bustle and enjoying sheltered sunbathing, surfing and exploring caves and rock pools. The property is ideally located for visiting the coastline with a plethora of sandy beaches to discover, or travel further afield and while away your day pottering around Padstow or St Ives. Whether it's walking along the cliff paths, swimming in the sea or just taking in the breath-taking scenery, there is something for everyone in this beautiful place.

This contemporary apartment is on the first floor of a beachfront property, boasting a balcony with views over the sea, perfect for watching and listening to the waves. Relax in the open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner, taking a break from gazing at the ocean to relax on the squidgy sofa in front of the large Smart TV. The kitchen area is well equipped with an electric oven and hob, microwave, fridge, freezer, dishwasher, and washer/dryer. The two bedrooms are calm and tranquil. The king size bedroom has an en-suite shower room with WC, whilst the twin room has a Smart TV. The main bathroom has a shower over bath and WC.

Leading from the lounge area, there are French doors which open onto the enclosed balcony which has seating for two.

Nice clean apartment with a view. It felt very homely. We were generally pretty happy with it. Just a bit more attention to detail would have made it a really lovely experience.
