This four-bedroom penthouse apartment sits on the edge of Porth Beach on Cornwall's north coast, with access onto the sand across a lawn shared with other guests. With rock pools, streams, and caves spread across a broad sweep of golden sand – a natural playground for sandcastle building and exploring – it is well placed for families and groups looking for an active coastal holiday. A narrow wooden footbridge connects the beach to Porth Island, also known as Trevelgue Head, where a dramatic blowhole shoots rainbow sprays of water skyward at mid-tide. The headland draws visitors year-round for its dramatic coastal scenery. From Porth, the coast path runs 0.5 miles south towards Lusty Glaze, a secluded, privately-owned cove, and 3 miles north towards Watergate Bay and its long stretch of sand. Rolling cliffs between Watergate Bay and Mawgan Porth add further variety to walks along this stretch of coastline.
A generous open-plan living and dining space occupies the heart of the apartment, with full-width glass doors framing sea views and flooding the room with light. Two sets of bi-folding doors open onto the private balcony. Comfortable sofas face a TV and Blu-ray, while a dining table seats eight. The kitchen sits within the open-plan space, and a separate utility room houses a washer/dryer. The master bedroom has a super-king-size bed, sea views, and doors onto the balcony, with an en-suite shower room featuring a large rainfall shower and WC. A second bedroom also has sea views and balcony access, with a super-king-size zip-and-link bed that can be configured as a twin on request. A king-size bed sits in the third bedroom, which has its own en-suite shower room with WC. In the fourth bedroom, a super-king-size zip-and-link bed can be arranged as a twin on request, with a Velux window providing natural light. A spacious family bathroom with shower over the bath and WC completes the sleeping accommodation. The apartment is on the third floor, reached by lift or two flights of stairs.
The private balcony runs the width of the apartment, furnished with teak and wicker-effect outdoor seating, a coffee table, and a picnic table with benches for al fresco dining – all with views across the sand and out to sea. A decked area with landscaped gardens and beach access is shared with other guests. An outside heated shower is also shared with other guests. Secure storage is provided for boards and beach equipment. A lift connects the car park level to the apartment entrance. Two designated parking spaces are provided in the car park.
