Wake up to the sound of the surf at this modern three-bedroom apartment just across the road (100 metres) from Polzeath Beach. It’s pure seaside bliss here thanks to stylish interiors, a private roof terrace and an outdoor kitchen for sizzling up holiday meals. Rise with the sun for rooftop yoga before setting off to explore secret coves and soaring clifftops. Join the South West Coast Path (150 metres away) and wander to the dramatic Pentire Headland (1.5 miles) and on to The Rumps (2 miles) where seals and dolphins sometimes frolic below. In the other direction, amble to the tucked-away sands of Greenaway (1 mile), the wide sweep of Daymer Bay (1.5 miles) and the chic estuary village of Rock (2.5 miles). Cafes and restaurants are scattered within 200 metres, so it’s easy to pop out for lazy breakfasts and sunset suppers without needing the car keys.
You’ll access this stylish abode by either taking the communal lift or heading up two flights of stairs. Once inside, everything flows across one light-filled level, with no internal steps. The airy open-plan living space invites you to unwind, with a vast corner sofa, crackling wood burner and large sliding doors leading to a balcony perfect for people watching. Cook with ease in the high-spec kitchen and gather round the warm-wood dining table for sociable meals. A handy utility room keeps things practical. When it’s time to turn in, three serene bedrooms await: a super-king-size room with a Smart TV and spa-like en-suite shower room, a twin room with a Smart TV, and a smaller twin room perfect for little ones. Completing the interior, a family bathroom with a deep bath offers the perfect soak after a salty day on the coast.
To reach the apartment’s showstopper – the fantastic roof terrace – head up two short flights. Here, bask on colourful beanbags, tuck into sunlit breakfasts and cook holiday feasts in the undercover outdoor kitchen complete with a BBQ and sink. After dark, wrap up in blankets, sip hot chocolate and stargaze from this spectacular vantage point. Surf storage is handy for storing sandy kit, and there’s a parking space for one car.
