Property code: OC-B584250

This contemporary first-floor apartment overlooks Porth Beach on the North Cornwall coast, with a private balcony framing open views across the sand and out to sea. Ideal for small families and outdoor adventurers, the beach sits just 40 metres away – a wide sweep of sand sheltered by two headlands, with rock pools, caves, and streams to explore at low tide. A narrow wooden footbridge leads across to Porth Island, a headland rich in history, where a dramatic blowhole shoots spray high into the air at mid-tide. Lusty Glaze Beach (0.5 miles) lies to the south along the coast path, while Watergate Bay and the rolling cliffs of Mawgan Porth (both within 4 miles) stretch out to the north – all linked by the South West Coast Path.


Light fills the open-plan living, dining, and kitchen space, where sliding doors open onto the private balcony and frame coastal views across Porth Beach and the headlands beyond. A comfortable sofa and tub chair are arranged around the TV, and a dining table seating four sits alongside the kitchen – the whole space feels open and sociable. The master bedroom leads off from the living area, with a double bed, an en-suite shower room, and a TV – perfect for lazy mornings. Across the apartment, the twin bedroom has two single beds, a TV, and its own set of doors opening out onto the communal garden. The family bathroom, beside the twin room, has a bath, a separate shower, and a WC.


The scenic private balcony has a coffee table and chairs, with views across the beach and out to sea. The rear gardens are shared with other guests in the building and include a patio area, a washing line, and a surf shower – with level access from the ground floor. Secure surf storage is also available, shared with other guests in the building. A dedicated parking space is provided for one car.
