About this property

Perfectly located for beach getaways and walking holidays in Cornwall, this luxurious ground floor apartment sits directly on Cornwall's dramatic north coast, right beside the iconic 630-mile South West Coast Path. Just a short stroll from three of Cornwall's leading beaches, it forms part of one of Newquay's most prestgious developments, overlooking the bay, the ancient Barrowfields and within easy reach of the town centre.

With private parking outside the apartment, you enter at the rear into the hallway passing the three spacious bedrooms before going through to the open plan living room with a modern well-equipped kitchen.

The interior is finished in a sleek, contemporary style, with high quality fittings and wooden flooring that flows seamlessly throughout. The property features both a family bathroom and an en-suite shower room, all finished to a high standard.

From the open plan living room, bi-fold doors open out onto an expansive 435 sqm patio, furnished with sunchairs and a large picnic table - perfect for breezy breakfasts or sundowners. Beyond the patio lies a meticulously landscaped communal lawn. Both spaces enjoy sweeping views across the Barrowfields, Newquay Bay and all the way to Towan Headland - the perfect setting for soaking up the captivating coastal scenery.

In the cooler months, cosy together on plush sofas and watch the winter Atlantic rollers crash in from the warmth of the apartment, complete with underfloor heating throughout.

Fast unlimited Fibre Broadband supports three SMART TVs (one with complimentary Netflix) should you feel like a movie night in.

Thanks to its prime location, beach lovers can leave the car parked up for the week (or two) and explore a different beach every day, all within easy walking distance and offering the opportunity for swimming, surfing and even picnics on soft sand. Lusty Glaze, the beach that gives the apartment its name, has been named the UK's most picturesque live music venue by The Times, often hosting headline Sundowner sessions in its unique natural amphitheatre. Towan Beach and Great Western Beach - the UK's first surfing beaches - are also nearby, with beach bars and cafe's dotted along the sands.

Newquay itself boasts a vibrant array of amenities. Away from the shoreline, discover the Blue Reef Aquarium featuring close-up views of a variety of exotic underwater creatures, then of course the town also has its own Zoom plus a vibrant array of amenities, including shopping outlets, alongside an eclectic mix of trendy bars, restaurants, and nightlife venues. The town's charm is further enriched by its historic working fishing harbour and the unrivalled splendour of Europe's finest coastal landscapes. Also nearby is the historic manor of Trerice, a surviving Elizabethan house with formal gardens and an on-site restaurant.

Situated just off Henver Road, One Lusty Glaze is conveniently close to the Chester Road shopping complex and was honoured with the prestigious 5 Star Gold award for 'Best Residential Development in Cornwall' at the esteemed UK Property Awards, proudly sponsored by The Telegraph.

This well-appointed apartment offers year-round comfort, exceptional sea views and a central location - an ideal base for exploring Cornwall's stunning coastline and countryside including the landscapes that inspired Winston Graham's famous Poldark and the many romantic novels of Rosamunde Pilcher.

Newquay is the home of the UK’s surf scene, boasting three major beaches, and an endless supply of rolling surf, making it a watersports paradise. The town, with its zoo, sea life centre and varied selection of restaurants and pubs, also promises a holiday to remember. For avid walkers, the South West Coast Path passes in both directions along a stunning coastline of high cliffs, hidden coves and yet more beaches.

    I would recommend this property for anyone wishing to visit Newquay and would hesitate to go back.

  • Paul

    My experience was far from 5 star. At check-in the apartment had not been cleaned properly and was in a very dirty state. It had to be cleaned late in the first evening of our stay. It ruined the first day of our holiday. Furniture was also in dirty and damaged condition. It was very disappointing. I've rated it 2 stars on account of the apartments quiet location close to beaches and coast walks. Sykes staff were very helpful when I reported the problems with the accommodation.

    It is finished to a very high standard and has everything you need for your stay. Simple yet tastefully decorated with modern furnishing and we had plenty of space for our family and parents (6 in total). The ground floor apartment suited us and we were able to take advantage of the large patio area outside. It’s perfectly positioned to walk into Newquay for a bite to eat or a wander. Lusty Glaze beach is stunning even with its steps!!
